    Philosophy of Education

    My personal philosophy of education is of the firm belief that every student, regardless of

    race, ethnicity, socio-economic status, religious background, and/ or any other classification,

    deserves an equal opportunity at an academic education.

    During my internship as a student teacher, I have come to the conclusion that all students

    deserve to be accommodated in the classroom and therefore a teachers idea of education should

    always be changing. Not one student in the classroom is like another. Students do not stay the

    same every year therefore a teachers philosophy should not stay the same either. Teachers do

    not stop learning once appointed to a classroom. The lesson plans and units should be forever

    evolving to match the needs of the students. Everyday can be a learning experience, not only for

    the student, but for the teacher as well. The learning experience in the classroom should be a

    positive one. I believe students are looking for academic challenges in the classroom. It is the job

    of the teacher to provide those challenges by having high expectations for students to meet.

    However, a teacher must also be able to recognize when the expectations are too high for a

    student. A teacher should not lower the expectations of the classroom but should guide remedial

    students to reach the expectations while considering the students different learning styles and

    accommodating those learning abilities by changing the plans to fit each style.

    I believe that all students have the ability to learn and achieve if put in an open, creative,

    and understanding academic atmosphere. By giving students a comfortable and modern

    atmosphere in the classroom, the teacher gives each student an equal chance of success. This

    atmosphere can allow the teacher to accommodate students on an individual level which will

    allow both the student and the teacher to be more engaged throughout the year. I believe a

    teacher should also make an effort to stay on top of the newest technology and innovations that

  • 8/2/2019 Tiai and Tws

    can aid and facilitate the learning experience in the classroom. Each student in the classroom is

    growing in generation dependent on technology. This technology should be used in the

    classroom as much as possible in order to help relate the educational experience to the student.

    My personal philosophy of education will greatly impact the way I decide to teach in my

    classroom. The curriculum will promote progress throughout the entire year, leaving no student

    behind. As a teacher, I never want my students to feel stuck in a lesson or unit. I want the

    students to feel encouraged by their teacher, their classmates, and their school.

    In a perfect academic world, I would like my students to feel comfortable enough to ask

    any questions, determined enough to strive to meet my expectations, and comfortable enough to

    know that I am their teacher inside and outside of the classroom. My job as a teacher does not

    stop just because the bell rings at the end of the day.

    On the first day of the unit, I introduced the Ancient Greece bulletin board to the students. The

    bulletin board is an interactive timeline. As the students learn about major events in this unit theycan relate their knowledge to the bulletin board by moving the timeline pieces around.

    The pink sheets are different print outs of Aesops Fables. The students learned about Aesop, anAncient Greek who wrote stories with underlying morals. The students really enjoyed reading

    the stories and trying to figure out the morals.

    I also introduced the Black History Month bulletin board. February is Black History Month and I

    really wanted to teach the students about that as well. My bulletin board is an interactive bulletinboard where one student can stand up and read a biography excerpt about a prominent Black

    History month figure. Then, as a class, the students try to guess who that person is. This bulletinboard was very effective. In order to motivate the students, I let the first students who finished

    writing down their bell ringer assignment be the one to read aloud to the class. The studentsbecame competitive in their bell ringer assignments so that they could have the privilege of

    reading the Who Am I? board.

    current events with the class and give explanations for each one. We will discussthese as a class. This is a daily activity.

    Before the lesson begins I will check homework from last nights assignment and

    hand back the notes on the Minoans and Mycenaeans.

    Students will be asked to define democracy in their own terms. We will make acircle map to show our results. Students will not be required to write this down

    considering our time limit.

    B. Study/Learning:After talking briefly about democracy the students will add to the circle map

    labeled for democracy. The students will then be divided into twogroups. One group will consist of only males and it will be a group of five. The

    rest of the class will be group two and sit on the other side of the room. The classwill be told that from now on, during the class period, the small group will make

    all of the decisions.

    Then I will turn to the small group and address them. They will be told to choosea homework assignment for themselves and for the other group. One homework

    assignment will be worse than another. The hope is that the small group of maleschooses the easy homework so that the larger group feels it is unfair.

    C. CulminationAfter the small group of males discusses and chooses their homework then the

    class will discuss why this form of government is fair or unfair. And how thisancient democratic government differs from the government they described

    earlier in class.

    The students will then be placed back in their normal seats and we will run thesimulation again. The students, as a class, will choose their homework for the

    night and we will discuss how this act of democracy is fair or unfair.

    D. Follow-UpFor homework, students are to write a small paragraph about which democracy

    they would rather live in (modern or ancient) and why.

    Materials and Resources-Dry erase board for current events

    -Student participation-notebook paper and pencil

    Evaluation related to objectives-Students will be graded on their participation in the simulation as well as theirknowledge of the subject of democracy.

    protection.

    Largest city: Knossos- had a five story palace built of luxirious things and severalentrances.

    Houses were built side by side around courtyards Many houses only had an entrance through the roof Rulers of Crete were called priest-kings. They made laws and represented the gods. Had many gods Main god was Mother Earth who made plants grow and brought children Sacred flower was the lily; double ax was also sacred; and the dove No one is certain how or why the Minoan civilization fell

    Mycenaeans

    hunted with the men

    Met the Minoans shortly after they settled in Greece; Mycenaeans imitated the Minoansgold and bronze work, fashions, and language. Most of all, they imitated the Minoansships and navigation techniques.

    Grew olives for food, oil, and fuel; made them very rich Very good fighters; used large sheilds; fought with spears and swords Famous for their attack on Troy; Remember the Trojan Horse and Helen of Troy

    HOW IT WORKS

    Students will be divided into groups and given 2 copies of paper Greek money. The Greekmoney signifies how many events a student can participate in. For example, if Johnny uses both

    of his coins then he can no longer participate in the Olympics until the other members of hisgroup have use their coins as well. This ensures that the entire team will participate.

    The events are as follows:

    Breakfast Scramble- One person from each group will come to the floor and reassemblea cereal box that has been cut up into pieces. First place wins two points; Second place

    wins one point.

    Face the Cookie- One person from each group will come to the floor and, using onlytheir face muscles, will move three cookies from the forehead to the mouth. The cookies

    have to get to the mouth but the students do not have to eat them if they do not want to.

    First person to complete the task wins three points; second place gets two points.

    Javelin Throw- One student from each group will throw their javelin straw in hopes ofmaking theirs go the farthest. The student who shoots their javelin the farthest will win

    one point.

    Tennis- With two paper plates, two students from each group will play tennis with apaper ball and see who can keep the ball in the air the longest. The winner will receive

    two points for their group.

    Movin On Up- One person from each group will hold a stack of blue cups with 1

    colored cup at the bottom. Player must move cups one at a time until the red cup hastravelled all the way back to the bottom. First place gets two points; second place getsone point.

    Stack Attack- One person from each group will come to the floor and stack 15 cups into

    a triangle structure. Once that is complete, the player must get the cups back into a singlestack. First place gets two points; second place gets one point.

    Suck It Up- One person from each group will come to the floor and participate. Using

    empty toilet paper tubes, the person will suck up pieces of cardstock and transfer thepieces from the table to their desk. After all pieces are off the table players can run to

    other groups desks and steal pieces of cardstock from there. The desk with the mostpieces at the end of the time gets three points; second place gets two points.

    Memory Schmemory- One person from each group will look in a shoe box for 15

    seconds and memorize everything they can. Then they will wait 15 seconds. Then theplayer has ten seconds to write down what they saw in the box. The person with the most

    correct items on the list wins three points; second place gets two points.

    Mallowed Out- Two people from each group come to the floor. One teammate willthrow marshmallows into a cup that is placed on the top of another teammates head.

    First team to successfully transfer 3 marshmallows wins three points; second place getstwo points.

    Materials Needed:

    6 cereal boxesOne pack of Oreos

    Blue plastic cupsRed plastic cups

    7 shoe boxes7 toilet paper rolls

    Bag of marshmallowsStyrofoam plates

    10 straws

    To receive the materials, the students will volunteer to bring the materials in exchange for a

    homework pass.

    In between each event, students will answer questions about Greece, complete math puzzles, andbrain teasers. The trivia questions will be written out the night before the Olympics to ensure that

    no students see the questions before hand or have an idea of what might be asked of them.

    After each class goes through the events the top group will be award. If time permits, we willhold the awards ceremony. If not, then we will hold the award ceremony the next day before the

    review game. The awards ceremony will consist of the winning group receiving handmade

    Olympic gold medals as well as five bonus points for their final exam. The students who receivethe medals must wear their medals or bring their medals to class the day of the exam to receivetheir points.

    HANDMADE GOLD MEDALS FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL WINNER

    With this part of the lesson I really

    wanted to incorporate my Artendorsement. Throughout thissemester, while completing the

    internship, I took two Ceramics nightcourses with Professor Ky Johnston. I

    came up with the idea to create thesegold medals for the winners f the

    Classroom Olympics so that thestudents would be motivated to try

    hard and win the prize. The studentsreally loved the gold medals. I felt like

    I really accomplished my goal toincorporate my two subjects: History

    CLASS DESCRIPTION7th Grade World History

    7th

    period: 2:17pm- 3:10pm

    1. Age range of class:The students age range is between 12 years of age to 14 years of age. There are nine 12 year old

    females and four 12 year old males. There is one 13 year old female and four 13 year old males.

    Then there are two 14 year old males.

    2. Ability range:

    The class is made up of students from an accelerated education program as well as students who

    are not. Of the 22 students in seventh period, approximately 5 students are on an advanced level,

    6 students are on a remedial level, and 11 students are on an average level.

    3. Socioeconomic and diversity description:

    There are twelve girls and ten boys in this class. The diversity in the classroom isnt very broad;with eleven Caucasian girls and one African American girl; as well as four African American

    males and six Caucasian males. Most to all students are from average middle income families. It

    seems that maybe one or two students are from a low income family but overall socioeconomic

    status is not a factor in the classroom.

    4. Typical demeanor of students:

    The students attention span varies from day to day. If the task of the lesson is a hands-on

    activity the students are generally attentive and actively involved. However, if the lesson

    involves any type of reading or open discussion the teacher must go to extremes to get the

    students involved. The reading level of almost all of the students is at about a third or fourthgrade level which stops the students from wanting to participate in anything that requires critical

    thinking. When the students are doing a hands-on activity the behavior problems are more

    frequent but the teacher has already spent an entire semester with the students so she knows how

    to handle each one of them. Most of the students in the seventh period classroom try not to break

    the rules and get into trouble. The consequences can consist of losing a break time before third

    period or serving detention after school.

    5. Typical interests and involvement of students:

    Almost all of the students are involved in some sort of after school activity. Many of the students

    are involved with the schools athletics, however most of those athletics are only offered the firsthalf of the year.

    6. Prior relevant materials studied:

    Prior to my unit on Ancient Greece, the students have just learned about Ancient China and a

    few World Religions.

    CONTEXTUAL FACTORS

    Knowledge of community, school, and classroom factors:

    Margaret Green Junior High is located in Cleveland, Mississippi, in Bolivar County. The school

    was named after a long time resident of Cleveland. Margaret Green went to school in Virginia

    and Columbia University in New York. She was on the National Board of the Y.W.C.A. for a

    long time and was a national leader of the Parent/Teacher Association activities. She was the first

    woman elected to the Cleveland School Board and she started the Cleveland Chamber of

    Commerce. She was chairman of the County Board ofSupervisors and was voted Woman of

    the Year in Cleveland. Knowing the background on the name of the school certainly gives the

    junior high a little character and history.

    The staff at Margaret Green is very diverse. The school is principled by Robert Montesi with

    help from assistant principals Randal Gurlen and Archie Mitchell. Margaret Green Junior High

    serves grades 6-8. There are 498 students and 29 teachers. Approximately twelve teachers have

    an A licensure certification. Sixteen teachers have an AA certification and one teacher has an

    AAA certification respectively. The school is known for having National Board Certified

    Teachers, being a part of the STAR Accelerated Learning program and other events like the

    National Geography Bee. Athletics are very involved in Margaret Green Junior High. The school

    offers football, basketball, cheerleading, soccer, and a dance team. Some students are even a part

    of the Junior Varsity sports teams at Margaret Greens sister school Cleveland High School,

    which is located next door. Extra sports like baseball, softball, and swimming are offered this

    way. After school programs and organizations like Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Journalism,National Junior Honor Society, Science Bowl, and the Student Council are also offered.

    Cleveland has a population of about 12,500 as of the 2010 census. The median household

    income and the median household value are far below the average for the state, coupled along

    with an unemployment percentage that is above average. However, the county has an above

    average percentage of population with a bachelors degree or higher. This statistic can be

    contributed to Delta State University which resides in Cleveland.

    Knowledge of students varied approaches to learning:

    The learning style for this class was mainly kinesthetic and visual. The students worked much

    more diligently when given an activity or project to work on. When given lecture style lessons or

    open discussion lessons the students seemed unmotivated and bored. When given a project

    pertaining to the lesson the activity level of the room was higher as well as the test scores.

    In order to better evaluate the learning styles of seventh period and confirm my initial

    observation I gave the students a learning styles inventory quiz.

  • 8/2/2019 Tiai and Tws

    83/111

    83

    Knowledge of students skills and prior learning:

    Prior to this unit, the students just finished a unit on Ancient China. The students also reviewed a

    short two to three day lesson on World Religions. Other than Ancient China being another

    geographical area, the prior unit does not relate to the unit in this TWS. However, the instruction

    of the previous unit will carry over to this unit in the sense that the students will know what to

    expect. In the Ancient China unit, students covered the geographical aspects of China, the socialstructure of China, and how Ancient China has influenced our modern world today. The students

    will essentially do the same for this unit.

    Implications for instructional planning and assessment:

    The contextual factors of the school and the county certainly affect the education of the students

    at Margaret Green Junior High. The classrooms are small and crowded. The rooms only have

    two electrical outlets making technology hard to access. The technological aspect of the school is

    very low. Teachers are given one computer per room that is only for teacher use. The students

    are given access to the computer lab which is located in the library but there is not enough to goaround the entire school. However, the school does offer the library which offers literacy

    enrichment, writing enrichment, and tutoring. The students have access to a guidance counselor

    who can help the students create a path after junior high and high school as well as offer the

    students psychological counseling during troubled times.

    In order to work with the resources, I had to constantly change my lesson plans and try to work

    in technology whenever it was available. I had to have all worksheets and materials ready to be

  • 8/2/2019 Tiai and Tws

    84/111

    84

    printed six days in advance. This made lesson planning quite difficult due to the fact that my

    lesson plans were constantly changing for the need of the classroom. When the students needed

    to use the computers, the library needed to be booked for the class periods in advance. Most of

    the time, the computers were already scheduled for other classes. All in all, with a little planning,

    the resources at the school were very useful.

    LEARNING GOALS

  • 8/2/2019 Tiai and Tws

    86/111

    86

    LEARNING GOALS

    Learning Goal #1: The students will know where Greece is located on a world map and be able

    to correctly identify surrounding areas and characteristics about Greece.

    Learning Goal #2: Students will be able to give a general review on the history of Greece and

    be able to identify who the Minoans and the Mycenaeans were.

    Learning Goal #3: Students will be able to discuss the characteristics of Greek society and the

    differences between a Spartan and an Athenian.

    Learning Goal #4: Students will know how democracy began in Greece and how it influenced

    the country we live in.

    Learning Goal #5: Students will complete a project on the Greek gods and goddesses.

    Learning Goal #6: Students will be able to give a general review on how the Olympics began

    and how they have changed over time.

    Learning Goal #7: Students will be able to identify Alexander the Great and what he did for

    Greece.

    Discuss why your learning goals are appropriate in terms of

    developing perquisite knowledge, skills, and other students needs.

    Learning Goal #1: The students will be able to label Greece on a world map andcoincidentally giving the students an idea of what is in that general area. The map will be

    on drawn on the board leaving blanks for the students to fill in with the appropriate

    answer while working with the teacher. For example, the teacher will label the coast on

    the map and have the students do the same to their individual map. This learning goal

    will be essential for students in order for them to understand Ancient Greek society as a

    whole.

    Learning Goal #2: By the end of the unit students will be able to give a general reviewon the history of Greece. Each student will know who the Minoans were and how they

    play a part in Greek society. The students will also know who the Mycenaeans were andbe able to provide information on why these two groups of societies were important to

    Greek culture. The students will compare and contrast the Greeks with each other group

    of people by using a thinking map.

    Learning Goal #3: Students will compare and contrast the Spartans and the Athenians.The students will draw a role in society from a box and that role will be the one they act

  • 8/2/2019 Tiai and Tws

    87/111

    87

    on throughout the unit. For example, a student may draw Athenian male from the box

    while another student may draw Spartan child. Each role in society will be discussed

    and the students will write a paragraph on how life would be if they were truly the role

    they received. It is important for students to know how many different cultures made up

    Greek society and how many of those cultures were very different. It is also important

    because we can see how Greek culture spread.

    Learning Goal #4: By the end of the unit, students will understand where democracystarted in Greece and how it spread throughout Europe and across the oceans. This is very

    important because the United States government is a democracy and it may be a little

    from the Greek democracy. Students should be able to see that a government can be

    interpreted several ways.

    Learning Goal #5: One of the most exciting parts of the unit is learning about thereligious beliefs of Greece. Students will complete a project on the Greek gods andgoddesses of Greek culture. Students will be assigned a god or goddess and have to write

    a report on this religious entity. The students will understand how vast the Greek religion

    went and how devoted the Greek people were to their religion.

    Learning Goal #6: The students will know the history of the Olympics and compare andcontrast the Olympics from Greek times to the Olympics today. The Olympics will be

    happening in London in 2012 so the students will follow all current event news leading

    up to this event.

    Learning Goal #7: Students will be able to correctly identify Alexander the Great andhow he helped spread the Greek culture throughout his conquests of his empire. Thestudents need to understand that conquering land during this time could be very difficult

    or it could be very easy. The students will look at an example of each. The students need

    to understand how young Alexander the Great was when he was ruler. This part of the

    lesson is important because the students will see how Greek culture spread and be able to

    identify different parts of the world where Greek culture still lives today.
