@ProfessorStacie I think it is important to assess students in a variety of ways because every student learns differently and understands differently so offering multiple ways to track a students progress brings diversity of learning to the class. And it can be fun. @ProfessorStacie #EdPsych211

@ProfessorStacie Having a diverse classroom positively impacts students learning as they interact and work with students of many backgrounds. It brings community into the classroom and shows children we are all different, but should all be treated equally. @ProfessorStacie #EdPsych211

@ProfessorStacie This will affect me as a teacher because I will be challenged with flexibility, time, and patience. I will go above and beyond to help all of my students achieve. Challenging me with these things will push me to be a better teacher. @ProfessorStacie #EdPsych211

@ProfessorStacie Being a good teacher means interacting with students and accommodating learning to best impact them. And good teaching goes beyond the classroom. I would say I’m more of a “Guide by the Side” type of teacher and also a “Guide by the Side” learner. #EdPsych211 @ProfessorStacie

@ProfessorStacie As I complete my observation hours, I have been surprises by children’s brutal honesty, teachers relatability, the amount of work put in by teachers outside of their classroom, and the difficulty of working through curriculum with other teachers. #IntroTeach101 @ProfessorStacie

@ProfessorStacie I knew about IEPs because of my brother, but I had no idea how much time, detail, and changes go into it, and I found it interesting that some parents don’t stay on top of their kids IEP. Learning about teaching each exceptionality was eye-opening. #ExcepChild111 @ProfessorStacie

@ProfessorStacie I believe testing students knowledge can be both beneficial and non beneficial. Some students tests do directly show their knowledge, but other students do not test the same and cannot represent their true knowledge learned through testing. @ProfessorStacie #IntroTeach101

@ProfessorStacie Early intervention is vital because it helps prepare them for their own future. It is the start to their journey and will allow them to feel more comfortable for change. It also allows them to see their progress and meet peers within the program. @ProfessorStacie #ExcepChild111

[Abby Howell @howellabbyk]

@ProfessorStacie Each student has a different instruction manual, different needs, and different learning styles. Being able to connect with each student will motivate their learning and express their individuality. They will engage and feel safe to be themselves. @ProfessorStacie #IntroTeach101

[Abby Howell @howellabbyk]

@ProfessorStacie Programs such as these are important for the community because it allows inclusion to be known outside of schools, such as jobs, and these exceptionalities never go away. They need a program to feel welcome and included outside of the classrooms. @ProfessorStacie #ExcepChild111

By the way, you saved me. 🥺💙

[Abby Howell @howellabbyk]

@ProfessorStacie I am worried about the transition from college student, student teaching, and being completely on my own with my own kids. I am worried about failing before I even get the chance to begin and that I won’t be a teacher who makes a difference today. #IntroTeach101 @ProfessorStacie

[Abby Howell @howellabbyk]

@ProfessorStacie Classroom designs and activities can make or break the success of inclusion. A combination of a fun, calming, and educational atmosphere with the ability to be flexible will give a chance for every student to have the opportunity to succeed. #ExceptChild111 @ProfessorStacie

[Abby Howell @howellabbyk]

@addy_grace1 @ProfessorStacie I completely agree with you, everyone has to work together to give every child with an exceptionality a chance to thrive and succeed in their own way. Modification is key. @addy_grace1 @ProfessorStacie #ExcepChild111

[Abby Howell @howellabbyk]

@ProfessorStacie It is very important to know and understand all points of view so that every exceptional child gets exactly what he or she needs for success. It also allows a more natural blending of students and a smoother process for inclusion to take place. @ProfessorStacie #ExcepChild111

[Abby Howell @howellabbyk]

@pedigo_morgan @ProfessorStacie I love this! I hope to push my students for greatness too. You will be a great teacher! @pedigo_morgan @ProfessorStacie #IntroTeach101

[Abby Howell @howellabbyk]

@ProfessorStacie I would like to be remembered as the teacher who was more than just a teacher to her students. Someone who was patient, pushed them to achieve and made an impact. I want them to come to me 10 years later and update me on all their achievements. @ProfessorStacie #IntroTeach101
