Journal #7

Date: June 13th 2019    

Write a reflection about the classes you oriented this week (bear in mind the following aspects: what you planned, what you did, and what you would do differently if you were to teach your lessons again). Give examples and descriptions of those situations that, in your view, are relevant to your learning experience. 
During this week, students only had tests. With second grade I did not have any problem in the application test. In first grade are two girls who are learning to read and write and in the first part of the exam, students had to write their names and their classmates’ names. It was a great problem for them because they did not know how to write. So, I sat down with them, one by one and help them also reading and I explained the test’s instructions. One girl knew everything that I was asking for, the other girl knew only some answers but not all them.
With kindergarten, I applied the test individually. I sat down with each student, I explained the test and students answered it adequately. Three out five students got 5.0 in the test. I could not apply the test to Nicolas, the boy who has autism syndrome because he did not want to take it, he was a little bit aggressive and misbehaved and Samuel Alejandro did not attend to class.

Educational Autobiography

Educational Autobiography I studied the five years of my primary education in the countryside. As we know, the majority of the schools in the countryside are far away from home, I had to walk 30 minutes every day to arrive school. When I was in third grade I deserted school for 3 months. I did not want to go to study because days ago my family had received an anonymous letter asking for money and threaten us if we did not do what they want or if maybe we tell the police about what was happening to us. I was so scared and I thought that if I go to school maybe those bad people arrive home and something horrible could happen to my family. When the nightmare for us finished, the school teacher send me a letter telling me that it had been three months in which I did not attend to class also, that I had some many absences and if I did not arrive at school I could fail third grade, so I decided to go back at school. I finished my primary education there and I always was the best in school...

Metaphor

Students are a blank piece of paper, a symbol of limitless potential. Teachers are the pen that fills up the paper with knowledge of both the world and the curriculum; with tips and tools that the students may employ as they learn to navigate the world on their own. Teachers are the hands that fold the paper into an airplane and make the students feel as if they could fly. Teachers are the recyclers that find a purpose for the sheet that was previously cast aside. As a pen, teachers fill the minds of students with basic theory’s, concepts and terms to establish a general knowledge base about the world we live in. Teachers can foster self-esteem in children by acknowledging or rewarding exceptional efforts. When a teacher believes in a child, a child will believe in a teacher and feel as though they can tackle anything (feel like they can fly). Lastly, it is the unfortunate truth that, for whatever reason, some students feel as though they are left behind. This does not...

Give examples and descriptions of those situations that, in your view, are relevant to your learning experience.  First grade. During this week I had classes the two days with them. On Monday, students had to complete a format with their personal information, also they had to study that information because they will introduce themselves in the other classrooms such as kindergarten and second grade. Only one student finished to complete the format with her information, she went to second graders to introduce herself, she did it very well and second grader’s students understood it. On Wednesday, all the students had to introduce themselves to another class...
