What, So What, Now what

What?
Classes this week have been very hectic for me! I'm learning so much about education I feel like my brain will explode! A couple of key elemts that i've learned this week that I feel are important to know and some offer possiblities of use in the classroom. In foundations we learned about Utah Federal Government envolvement inside of education. It seems as though they run a big portion of educational dissision being made. However they only provide about 8% of the funding towards education, that's not weird right? I just find that very odd. In creative arts we've been talking about music and how to incorporated that into the classroom. This is a very hard thing for me because I do find the music to be distracting, but it can have great impact! Also making lesson plans is no longer foreign to me. It has become a lot easier to create a reasonable lesson plan. I LOVE my social studies class, that for me has been really fun to learn cools ways to incorporate about history by using creative arts methods.

So What?
Now that I am learning about all these different aspects in education I can apply them to my classroom! I plan to provide lesson plans that are fun and engaging to all students. I plan on having some of the following activities: singing, drama (plays), lots of science projects, and the use of technology. It is important for me as a teacher to learn all of these methods of teaching in order to keep my students engaged. Also I hope to become a good resource for my future colleagues and that I can go to them for great ideas as well! I believe that as long as I can get excited and have fun with a lesson my students will react the same way!

Now What?
I plan to use blogging, and hands on experiences inside of my classroom! I plan on being a fun, organized, knowledgeable teacher! In order to accomplish my goals in become an amazing teacher I need to stay focused and keep awesome notes! In my "time line" that I am currently making I have made sure to incorporate all of the great ideas which the teachers have given us. As a teacher one of the main things I will use will be power points, great way for the students to stay engaged.
