Goals:
  • learn how to engage students with reading
  • learn how to motivate  students intrinsically to read
  • Find a balance between reading, writing, comprehension in my teaching
Learning Future: 
  • teaching students in an urban environment
  • i would like to learn to use literacy for more than just teaching, I want to use it to help students explore themselves and find out more about who they are.
  • One of the jigsaw articles about teaching black students was interesting and it made me think about inner city schools who have a very different demographic compared to an urban school. How do i teach students who are vastly different to me in terms of culture? 
  • Going into special ed throws a twist on everything i learn in this general education classes. Will my students be high functioning or low functioning? What type of literary capacity will they have? I hope I have students who are able to read and write fluently but it is a gamble with special education.
