How Do I Become a Teacher?

IN CLASS:

I feel so far in the class I have learned how to become a teacher through when we talk about the different seat arrangements. When we do this we discuss what people benefit from the arrangement and which students do not. Then we try and figure out how with the current arrangement we can benefit the most students in the classroom.

Also, I feel making the cover for out notebook really helped me look at what I want in myself in a teacher. It put everything that helped me through my education.


OUT OF CLASS:

I was a teacher's assistant in an eighth grade English classroom my senior year in high school. I got to help teach the class and learn how to use the teacher's best friend, the photocopier. I really got to learn how to help the students that were mainstream and the ones that were placed in the classroom from Special Education.

I was a Sunday School teacher at my church from seventh to twelfth grade. I learned how to teach very young children through arts and crafts, song, and simple stories. It was a very interesting because I had to bring what I was saying down to their level of intelligence.


Question/Concern/Topic:

I would like to discuss what we as students need to do to start our portfolio.
