My Teaching Philosophy

-

 



My teaching philosophy is all about putting students at the center while also focusing on their overall growth. With their own strengths, needs, and goals, I believe every student is unique. As a teacher, my job is to create a classroom where students feel encourages to be in control of their learning, while also supporting their academic, emotional, social, and physical development.

In my classroom, learning will be hands-on and driven by the students. I aim to create lessons that spark creativity, encourage exploration, and get kids working together. I want every student to feel connected to what they’re learning, so I will make sure to have lessons that fit their interests and learning styles. My goal is to help students become curious and confident problem-solvers, not just knowledgeable.

At the same time, I know it’s important to address students’ needs beyond academics. So, with that being said, I want to create a safe and welcoming space where all students feel valued. I will have activities that promote mindfulness, social-emotional learning, and relationship-building. This will be there so that students develop the skills they need to succeed in all areas of life, not just inside the classroom but outside as well.

In the end, I want to inspire lifelong learning and help students grow into balanced, confident individuals. By focusing on the whole child and creating a student-centered environment, I believe that I can help my students reach their full potential.

When it comes to fostering a student-centered environment, I believe that technology is an important part of modern education. It helps make learning more personalized and interactive by giving students tools that fit their individual needs. 

When it comes to determining the impact that I want technology to have in my classroom, I will keep in mind of how engaged students are and how well they’re meeting their learning goals. I will pay attention to things like participation, enthusiasm, and feedback from my students, and I will track progress in areas such as problem-solving, creativity, and digital skills. Another thing I plan to do is reflect on how technology is helping my students work together, communicate, and feel included. Regular self-reflection and professional development will help me with how I use technology to stay in line with my teaching philosophy.

My Video Journal Standards II, V

Hello again!  This blog will be a little different, though it’s supposed to be a video, my schedule didn’t allow me to match the different prompts, and I’m an out of state student so I didn’t have any younger family members to use. So I thought the next best thing would be to write it out.  One of my favorite apps to use in the classroom is  Kahoot . This is a game-based learning platform that turns quizzes into interactive, exciting competitions. The way I would explain it to students would be like this: “For those of who know what trivia is, imagine playing it and when you answer questions you get to earn points, and the faster you answer correctly, the higher your score! We can use Kahoot to review what we’ve learned in a fun way.” For example, if we’re studying math, I could create a Kahoot quiz with multiplication questions, and students would join the game using their devices. As each question pops up on the screen, students select their answers from multiple-choice...
