Principle #2 Student engage in authentic task

 As a teacher, I have always used authentic learning in my classes. Authentic learning benefits students greatly in the classroom; it gives students a better understanding of tasks when they can relate them to real-life experiences, and this helps students complete tasks successfully. I've seen positive results from engaging in authentic activities.

For example, during one language period, the class was assigned to read a passage about Diwali. Before the children began reading, they saw the title of the passage and excitement grew among them, as did conversations, and they were eager to share their experiences and relate to the passage. Some children were able to draw parallels between the passage and real-life situations.

In addition, I must create a welcoming environment for my students because I consider my classroom to be a second home for them.      Because I had been assisting other teachers for an entire year, having my own classroom came with a certain amount of excitement and eagerness. As a result, I was shifting from classroom to classroom as needed. Yes, I became tire...

Principle #7 Language arts instruction should center on quality literature

Image
 It is important that students use quality literature to explore language skills, writing aspects such as language devices, grammar, and so on. Quality literature is an excellent stimulus for involving students because it gives them time to reflect and make connections between the text, their own experiences, and personal responses. In addition, quality texts provide readers with a relatable context, making it easier to write from various points of view and about abstract situations. What factors influence the quality of children's literature? A good book has a key focus that connects the story and captures the reader in. The topic should be exciting and relevant to children, and it ought to have a beginning, middle, and end. The theme should originate from the story so that the reader recognizes it as a learning experience. For example, in my class, students grumble that the stories or reading passages they receive are boring and that they are not motivated to read them. We all kn...
