Childhood Memmories…

What experiences do you have of your childhood ?

It can sometimes be a tricky answer, for some jt can have lots to say , yet for others not as much.

I can clearly remember learning FRENCH. Yes French. Now the reasons for remembering it, was the kind odd but really engaging song. As a child I found something quite catchy that really caught me.

We also played traffic lights game and lots of outdoor activity with allowed us to practice of positional language in french with was so much funnn. (and I can easily re iterate and say many directions in french).

Learning that is fun and engaging can and does stay with you for some time. It is a matter of analysing such areas for my developing as a growing teacher and seeing the potential in learning which is meaningful for my class and those I teach and support.

Science , is it all that hard.

A new year, a new subject and lots of new ideas to explore.

And this time it’s exploring Science ! My biggest fear was that it really as complicated as it has always seen to been to me. Does the concepts need to be something beyond my understanding,

Strangely enough, and after a good thought the answer was NO. I thought to myself, look around you 2 things that you might have done today: walked; and played ball games. Both in itself a scientific understanding of its process. So science does involve my day to day life more than I think of it.

We might have not known what the substances were called or did not have the most accurate prediction, but we questioned and we tried.

Blogging “Wisdom Begins With Wonder” Socrates.

I am sure that I am not the only one, but I’m sure many other students who embarked on the wonderful degree in Education brought together an entire baggage of emotions filled with happiness and success but I’m sure that worries were part of it.

Blogs, wait a second… “I’ve never shared very much online.”

What should I write ?

How will it read ?

Does it make any sense ?

The first few weeks on University came to me as a surprise, along with many really interesting and wonderful aspects. Yet, one aspect which was worrying me was our own blog sites. Coming in with very little experience of writing and sharing my views with others was not something which I was familiar with. Especially only where so many people could be able to see it.

To start of with I was very reluctant to post anything online especially as I did not who I am sharing it and how they would perceive it as. I would sit and try and think of ideas but I was very much like this.

No ideas ! No creativity ! No enthusiasm !

Now, semester one is over and I just cannot believe the self confidence which I have gained, which pushes me to want to write, to communicate and develop professional dialogues.

eportfoilo nw Here are a few words which express how I feel now.

I feel that I have started to get into having a sense of collaborative work, peer assessment and reflection in place which allows me to see when and how I can develop.

This is a very inspirational quote which allows me to reflect and look into how I can reflect as professional. An integral part of the GTCS standards which demonstrates that a professional is one who dedicates themselves to professional learning and development.

This is a diagram which leave’s you with some interesting areas in which you can see and develop yourselves,

I have started off by showing my steps of development:

Add extra reading and references.

Please feel free to give me any feedback on how I can improve….
