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.

I didn't even think about this but you're completely right. In order to have successful students and a successful classroom it's important for the teacher to be ready to teach.
ReplyDeleteThis is true! We tend to focus more on the kids and having them be ready, but like you said, we need to make sure that we are ready first so that all we have to worry about then is teaching the kids! Good point.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely right on this....being well prepared would make things run a lot smoother. Not only are you confident as the teacher...but actually knowing what you are talking about, instead of just getting through it, is so much better. And, I like to think that the teacher's confidence in herself, rubs off on the kids a little, to where they appreciate their work a little more everyday.
ReplyDeleteGreat post!
