What is loving and laughing

  • Reflect on
    how you can become more intentional about loving and laughing in the
    elementary classroom. You can even plan instruction around moments of
    planned humor and fun!
  • How can you
    organize content that is engaging and fun? How can you show you care by
    implementing meaningful applications of knowledge? As the adage goes,
    “they don’t care how much you know, until they know how much you care.”
  • Provide a
    summary that gives an overview comparing and contrasting your state’s
    standards and another state’s standards or the national/common core
    standards.
  • Do you think these standards are appropriate and attainable for your students?
  • Which content and format do you prefer?
  • How do you feel that these standards affect accountability in the elementary school setting?
  • Provide a description of what you found about teaching standards for elementary school educators.
  • What are your thoughts and opinions about these standards?
