    I will be graduating with a Liberal Studies Major. I will hopefully be teaching in September but I have a dilemma, I am afraid of not having enough lessons to get me started. My other fear is not having fun lessons to teach. I work at an Elementary school now and there is a teacher that I work with that doesn't know the meaning of fun activities that can provide great knowledge from them. I will never forget my favorite teacher, Mr. Protho. He loved making our class a fun and exciting place to be. We would do Shakespeare plays throughout the year. He could take any subject and make it fun. Still to this day I call and ask him for advice when making lesson plans for school. There are many resources where one who is becoming a teacher can find. There are books, magazines, in-services, seminars, other people and of course the Internet.

  • Universal Healthcare System Analysis

    1487 Words  | 3 Pages

    Foremost, as stated, the conception of what is the best health care system is entirely subjective. It is a question that can never truly be answered correctly by any person. While one person may believe that a certain health care system is the best, another may contend for an opposing health care system. While favorability of a particular system is subjective, the overall efficiency of a system is one that a person can develop a greater understanding of by looking at the proponents of a system. The aforementioned proponents of accessibility, costs and overall quality allow for a sterner declaration of what health care system is the most efficient overall, or which is the “best”. These three proponents are significant as they are the main actors in shaping how a health care system operates. As a result, these three proponents also have a significant impact on all people and their health. If health care is not accessible or costs so much that a person cannot afford it, then one’s health has the potential to deteriorate. As for quality, the notion is vital in that one’s health care system will not be effective if the services provided are not standard. Consequently, one should carefully examine these proponents of a health care system in order to make an educated determination on which system is overall the most effective.

    As teachers we plan our lessons and think to ourselves, "my students are going to love this lesson and will be able to understand what I am teaching", but sometimes that isn 't the case.

Every student learns differently and thinks differently and because of this we, as teachers must learn to differentiate our lessons. This may require us to change the way we deliver our lesson, change the activities for our lessons or even change the wording of our material so students understand.

  • The Importance Of Lesson Plan Development

    919 Words  | 2 Pages

    Regarding the teaching process, teaching may be seen as three-step activities: planning, activities in the classroom and activities after the lesson (Haynes, 2010). The first step consists of planning and preparation activities, which are required before teaching in a class. The second step is the activities in the classroom (classroom management, teaching, and learning). Activities of the third step take place after the lesson (assessment, with associated activities such as recording and reporting, and evaluating). In this study, teacher’s lesson plans are used to analyze the teacher’s preparation in implementing project based learning starting from the planning until the implementation process in the classroom.
