Our School Within Us
About how we feel our teachers should teach
Our Teachers
We either need new or more advanced teachers. We think that our teachers would benefit us if they, gave us more guidance to where we want to go in life. What is the point if we don't have a subject that is interesting. Odds are we would fail in class and never get to our goal. This is a problem that needs to change. Do we look forward to doing after school classes? Or just school in general. Bingo! No we don't. Instead we think of the long hours of study that will come to us if we fail. This is the last thought we need! Parents, tell your children about the wonderful gifts that come with this. I know you may be thinking, " Really, you want me to do this? It's a stupid idea! " the truth is it might not be. A. Your child knows his or her teacher better. B. You have a clean slate. Give them the chance to catch up to the group. C. They get a real life experience! No you don't exactly have to say, " It's good because..." but if everyone could see the good in things and not just the bad.. I guess what we're trying to say is that school is a great way to learn, I think it will always be, we just need some improvement. WE NEED SCHOOL!!!!!!!!
School, the same?
This is a photo that will hopefully help you realize that we have done the same thing year after year. We still have summer break. We have evidence that the low income children fall a great deal behind each year.
BORING!
This is a photo showing that our schools are getting boring.
We do the same thing day after day. What would happen if we changed it up?
Teachers...
Yes, this involves our teachers! No, it is not all their fault. We need to improve how we teach. Each day the teachers teach new things and never develop a full sense of understanding. What if we took our time?
What do we Look for?
There is some criteria that every teacher needs. For your child's dream school we want teachers that...
- We expect teachers who will be eager to serve an understand his or her students
- We expect teachers who will make a sure understanding of a topic before moving on
- We expect teachers who will not give out abusive punishments to those who don't complete assignments and or projects in school.
- We expect teachers who will stand with purpose supporting the needs of others
- We want teachers that will give fun activities that relate to the lesson to help improve the way they learn
- We want teacher that will have an open space learning
Stress!
More and more children get stressed each year. Homework, friends, teachers, bullies, reputation, and grades. Could we create a school where all these worries disappear?
The Most Dangerous Phrase!
This phrase is what is limiting the learning. If we always do it this way, more problems will erupt on the surface of school. Will we ever get to pursue our dream? Will we be stuck learning the multiplies of 5, or all the grammar rules?
Summer!
Beach time, right? No, some low income families don't have parents to help teach them over the summer. Our teachers always say that "If you read books you will learn and grow more." Well that isn't true. Those low income families are struggling to get food! They don't have enough money for books! These children can fall a year behind of where they ended at the end of the school year. Each year this gap is getting greater and greater. How could we solve this?
