This week, the school where I volunteer was out for spring break, so I
decided to reflect on my experiences with the faculty at the school. Throughout
this time, I have worked with a variety of educators, kindergarten through
sixth grade, as well as Exceptional Student Education (ESE) teachers. The
teachers all have various methods for maintaining classroom management. I
noticed that the approach is different for the teachers, depending on the grade
level they teach, but the similarity is that they stay consistent. Another
thing I have observed is that the faculty members at this school all seem to
have open communication with one another. They cooperatively talk about
students’ needs and work together to complete tasks. This works well for both
the faculty and the students. I hope that the school where I will be employed
in the future has a similar helpful environment. I am thankful that the faculty
at this school has been very helpful to me regarding any questions I have asked
about assisting students and managing a classroom.
Collaboration oh how I love thee. Team work makes the dream work and the dream is educating the kids. It is important to have conversations with your co-workers about best practices, policies changes, students behaviors, and expectations. We can all learn something from one another. Sometimes those students labeled with a disability are forgotten about. I am glad that you had an experiences where teachers were dedicated and consistent with these students.
