My philosophy of learning

The best way for me to learn is when i can see something and can talk about it with other students. Working in a group is alot better for me becasue i can hear the ideas that they have also. Working in groups is what we do alot in college in almost every class. I also like to see things because it helps me learn better. If we are suppose to do something in class i like to see what it is suppose to look like before i start working on my own work.

readiness

I belive that i have to be ready myself before i know that kids will come to my class and want to learn. When kids are going to the 1st grade they are hyper but also at the same time they are ready to learn some new things that they didnt in kinder. Students like to follow what the techer is doing so you have to be a good role model for them. So i have to make sure that i am ready for the week and have my class organized for them to come in class to learn and have fun. I dont want them to come to class and see me not organized or prepared for the class becuase if they see that then they will end up to start becoming behind.

Shitty First Drafts Reflection

I am the same way as Anne Lamott I write horrible first drafts and then correct it after someone looks over it. My first draft is always where I just go and write down what is on my mind about the topic that I am going to write about. Like she said in the paper that she always likes the second draft and it sometimes makes her laugh. But to fix up the first draft you have to go over it with a color pen to make corrections. She didnt say anything about someone to look over it but to me I think it is so good to have someone else like the writing center to look for mistakes that I couldnt catch. Going over this makes me want to make sure everything I write is looked over not only by me but also some other person.
