So this year we are trying something new in my classroom. I want my students to understand who I am as a teacher (per the suggestion of Harry Wong...one of the foremost experts on classroom management). So, I am preparing a list of things that I want the students to know about me. However, it is hard to do because if you know anything about me, I am not a person who likes to talk about myself. I think I would rather slide down a banister coated with shards of glass than draw attention to myself. I decided I would put up the following things. Faithful blogger followers...please tell me what you think.
1. Copy of my diploma so that my students know I actually do know what I am talking about
2. Copy of my certificate that I won in college as Intern of the Year so they know that I know what I am talking about. (Can you tell my students challenged me on that point in the past????)
3. Coffee beans...hey, they are a major part of my life
4. Wedding picture of me and Ryan so the kids have a face to go with the name.
5. Map of Wyoming where I used to live
Can anyone think of anything I am missing. Let me know. I welcome suggestions.
Sometimes yu wet your pants when your good friend Krista makes you laugh really hard!
ReplyDeleteI agree with the Map of Wyoming, show your students God's bountiful garden spot.
