@fischermsu@swati1201 Hi!! I’m glad you mentioned a safe school. Schools that are safe & schools that students feel safe in, provide better learning environments for the students and staff! Safe can also mean more than just one thing. #cep416#PSTPLN
@swati1201 A5: Hi, I’m Alyssa! I’ll be searching for a school district that is inclusive and supportive. I hope to be part of a district that values the ideas of both the students and teachers, and is willing to make necessary changes to adapt to the students growing needs. #cep416#PSTPLN
@hmfeld22@swati1201@MrsHulsWO is one of my favorite teacher YouTubers! She teaches here in Michigan and posts a variety of teaching related videos! I recommend checking her channel (Elementary In The Mitten) out! #cep416#PSTPLN
@fischermsu@swati1201 Hey, I also love to watch classroom DIYs! I also subscribe to a lot of teacher YouTubers and watch their classroom setup/haul videos, as well as lesson planning videos! #cep416#PSTPLN
@MissKornatowski Hey! I love that you said problem solving is a skill needed for life, not just school. Problem solving is something everyone has to do in their everyday life and teaching students how to do so is essential for their future! #cep416#PSTPLN
@KurthMs I really like how you said students should be in a position to answer questions themselves! We want our students to ask a question and then be able to take the correct steps (using resources, such as technology) to find an answer to their question. #cep416#PSTPLN
@SKIOLOGY_@swati1201 Hey! I think keeping in touch with our own past teachers is such an amazing way to grow as teachers of our own! We can seek advice and insight from those who were so influential to us during our journeys to becoming educators. #cep416#PSTPLN
@NikkiHawthorne3@swati1201 I agree! Getting involved with what’s happening in your own school district, as well as having discussions online with educators from all over the world is extremely beneficial! #cep416#PSTPLN
A2: Hey I’m Alyssa! I can grow my PLN by following educators AND non educators locally, nationally, and globally. By following teachers (and other great intellectuals and influencers) from all around the world, I can learn and gain new perspectives on education! #PSTPLN#cep416
@MBerkal152@swati1201 I completely agree! Every student learns differently, so we need to teach differently! As teachers, it is our job to teach in a way that helps our students learn the best, which may mean changing our lesson plans every year to adapt to our new students needs! #cep416#PSTPLN
@SloaneRodrigue2@CaswellBethany@swati1201 Hey Sloane! I agree that communication with our students and having a trusting relationship is essential. How do we, as teachers, avoid being too much of an authority figure or too much of a friend? Is one or the other bad? Just some thoughts of mine! #PSTPLN#cep416
A1: Hey, my name is Alyssa and I’m a 3rd year elementary education major at MSU! The way we can meet all of our students learning needs is by being a listener! We should listen to our students, adapt to their unique needs, and grow from it! #cep416#PSTPLN
