I+Have+a+Dream

= = = = = = =All teachers dream of the perfect class; but it is simply that: a dream. No individual is perfect and therefore a classroom full of children will not be perfect either. We all have our flaws. But still, teachers strive to make the best of the class they are educating. Hence, my perfect class will be drawn from this assumption that nothing will be perfect and that we must expect the unexpected. = = = = = =When I think of my future class I see young children sitting at their desks before class begins happily chatting amongst each other. I hope the classroom is filled with laughter and happiness, something that would emanate from the feeling of comfort they receive when walking into the room. I feel that it is important for children to feel comfortable in their classroom in order for the learning process to have the proper effect. My class will feel like a centre for learning but will also be a place in which they will have fun doing so. I don’t want my students to feel that the learning process has to be boring. I want them to understand that learning can be fun and exciting. I feel that they will learn a lot more from fun and engaging lessons that coincide with their interests. Lastly, my future classroom sounds like a place of learning, fun, engagement, collaboration and comfort ability. Everyone is welcome to ask questions and contribute their own ideas to the learning process without being judged or ridiculed. =

= = =I suppose every teacher dreams of a classroom like this. Of course, I understand that this will not be the case one hundred percent of the time, but I hope to strive for this type of classroom atmosphere. As a teacher I want to educate children in the best manner possible, which means integrating technologies and other rich resources to make the learning process fun and appealing. =
