A Happy Classroom by Lois Allan Dommersnes Pdf

Just imagine millions of students, young and old, all over the world, sitting still and listening. Are they happy? I think not. It has been observed by educators and confirmed by non-verbal/mathematical evaluations that there is a measurable discrepancy between the potential and the actual performance of many students. Conclusion reached is that the way we educate our students in educational establishments, does not produce successful or happy people. The purpose of this book is to identify and describe the raw material we have, the students and their environment, the tools we have, books, computers and the product we hope to produce creative and productive students. To achieve this we need to design activities that will allow the students to be involved with each other and independent of each other. We must also take into account special gifts, varied abilities, and handicaps. Activities which do not address the above conditions such as text books exercises, rote learning, and various busy work tasks are killers of all the attributes we love in our students - spontaneity, creativity, enthusiasm, curiosity, and humour. During my last few years teaching K-12 I came up with activities that were mostly student generated. They presented their work to the class and we graded it together. I have spent much time on classroom management for without organization, routine and order chaos reigns. Equal understanding by both, students and teachers, of the benefits of the well-run classroom will add much to the learning environment. I also have taken some time in coming up with grading strategies. As we spend much time on testing and grading we need first of all to free the teachers from this tedium, and then examine whether the benefits to the students warrant so much time spent on the testing process. Perhaps my most rewarding task was the organization and design of a grading rubric. We had so much fun. Most importantly the teacher with a hundred and fifty student reports ha

The Well-Balanced Teacher by Mike Anderson Pdf

You've probably heard the advice "put on your own oxygen mask before assisting others." This is true both in airplanes and in classrooms—you have to take care of yourself before you can help someone else. If teachers are stressed out and exhausted, how can they have the patience, positive energy, and enthusiasm to provide the best instruction for students? Author Mike Anderson asked that question as a teacher himself, and the answers he found form the basis of The Well-Balanced Teacher. He found that teachers need to take care of themselves in five key areas to keep themselves in shape to care for their students. In addition to paying proper attention to their basic needs for nutrition, hydration, sleep, exercise, and emotional and spiritual refreshment, teachers also need Belonging: Teachers need to feel positive connections with other people, both in school and outside school. Significance: Teachers want to know that they make a positive difference through the work they do. Positive engagement: When teachers enjoy their work, they have great energy and passion for their teaching. Balance: Healthy teachers set boundaries and create routines so that they can have rich lives both in the classroom and at home. Anderson devotes a chapter to each of these needs, describing in frank detail his own struggles and offering a multitude of practical tips to help readers find solutions that will work for them. When teachers find ways to take care of their own needs, they will be healthier and happier, and they will have the positive energy and stamina needed to help their students learn and grow into healthy adults themselves.
