Random Thoughts of New Teacher. When Plan B was Plan A all along…. The sharing of ideas…. When I was first offered the chance to become a 7th grade Core teacher this year, it got me really thinking about what my teacher did (almost twenty years ago! To get me interested in learning. There were the projects and the encouragement and I realised that I had to think back even further. When I was in grade 4, I had an exchange teacher from America. In all of this, my students have displayed an unbelievable amo...

Parent-Teacher Interviews… | Random Thoughts of New Teacher

It is not like the school has translators on stand-by for that sort of thing (though, it really would be nice).

Random Thoughts of New Teacher. When Plan B was Plan A all along…. Yes, it’s been a while, but teaching doesn’t really stop. It’s an all-in sort of game, where you have to be on the ball or you end up lagging behind. Something happened today, and I’ve been kicking over in my head whether it was blog worthy or not and then I finally just decided to bite the bullet and go with it. You never really know who your words of confidence are picking up. The sharing of ideas…. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. You are c...

An Answer, Not THE Answer… | Random Thoughts of New Teacher
https://bekyoung.wordpress.com/2015/04/26/an-answer-not-the-answer
Random Thoughts of New Teacher. When Plan B was Plan A all along…. An Answer, Not THE Answer…. My partner has recently begun keeping a blog about being an ‘ Average Stutterer. His most recent post; ‘ Do you know the answer? 8216;, really sparked something in me that made sit up and reevaluate the way in which I teach. In answer to Andrew’s question, ‘Why do we not speak up [in class]? 8217;, I think this is something that can be said for all students, and not just PWS (People Who Stutter) students. Teach...

Why I Became a Teacher… | Random Thoughts of New Teacher
https://bekyoung.wordpress.com/2015/03/18/why-i-became-a-teacher
Random Thoughts of New Teacher. When Plan B was Plan A all along…. Why I Became a Teacher…. When I was a little girl, I wanted to become a lawyer. When I grew up, I wanted to become a teacher. I can’t speak for others, I. To speak for others. Their reasons are their own and just as valid as mine, no matter what they are, what philosophy backs them up or how they came to that conclusion. So please,. I live in hope that I’m teaching the next JK Rowling or Stephen King. When I have grandchildren, ...Why put...
