    TEACHING PHILOSOPHY 1

    “Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.” -Benjamin Franklin

    Goals for Student Learning

    Goals for student learning are critical. Students will be encouraged to be involved in the

    classroom in many different ways to make their learning experience as positive and productive as

    possible. Goals that are made for student growth in different areas will be present in the

    classroom. Teachers should take time to plan their lessons and activities throughout the day that

    are going to help students reach goals. Perseverance needs to be present in the classroom so

    teachers can hold students accountable to their goals. Goals should be targeted towards

    academics and life skills.

    Teaching Methodology

    Teaching methods will be student centered, kinesthetic, teacher-driven, and group

    oriented. The students need to direct their learning, but the teacher needs to be in charge.

    Kinesthetic learning should be present in the classroom to allow students to learn hands on. The

    classroom should be group-oriented. Children should work in groups so they can learn from each

    other and work together. For example, group projects throughout the year will help students

    establish social and teamwork skills.

    Assessment of Goals

    Monitoring student learning is essential. Teachers should have classes take tests to see

    how well they are doing with the material. Tests should not occur often, just at the end of units to

    see how well students are doing. Journals would be a valuable tool because it provides students

    with a lot of opportunities to express themselves and lets teachers stay connected with students.

    For example if a student is having a hard time at home they may write about it in their journal

    giving the teacher insight to their home life. Teachers need to have communication with students

    so they are able to monitor student learning. Check-ins should be present in classrooms to see

    how students are learning the material.

    Learning Environment

    A positive learning environment is key to successful learning. The students need to feel

    safe in their environment to learn to their full potential. Respect must be one of the biggest

    elements in a classroom. There needs to be respect between the teacher and students, and

    students with other students. Teachers must provide an engaging environment so the students are

    wanting to learn. For example, some hands on activities would help create an engaging

    environment. Students need to know that teachers care about them. If students know that a

    teacher cares for them they will feel safe and they will be better overall student.
