Best Field Trip

   After looking at the blog this week, I got to thinking about an awesome field trip that I have taken as a student. I came up with two, fourth grade field trip to the Rangers Stadium and Education and Training field trip to the State Fair of Texas. Both gave a fun trip away from the normal events of school, and is also educational.

   Going to the Rangers Stadium during my fourth grade year was really memorable by several aspects. For instance, the fourth graders got the opportunity to have a VIP tour of the whole stadium and have hands on learning in the museum.

  
    The State Fair is certaintly an exciting place to be. From the fried, well everything, to the educational show rooms. There are many opportunities to learn of the different cultures within a few hours.

Ethical Dilemma

This week on Mrs. Steven's blog, it talked about what happens online can effect people.

Cyberbullying is a serious thing where people of all ages use the comfort of their homes to post items to blow off stem. To prevent this is, one could ask permission before using photos or just not post their anger.

I believe that the way the situtation was handled was not accurate, yet careful. The situtation should have been handled by having Mark go to a teacher and tell them about what happened. In most cases, Mark's tip can be anonymous, so he doesn't have to worry about being called a snitch, especially when he is doing the right thing. Another idea would be to get off of the Facebook group. Mark doesn't need to be tied down to this group, and he can still see them at the school.

Why do I want to be a Teacher?

Mrs. Stevens blog asked why you wanted to be a teacher. Well, I want to be a teacher because I have had great teachers that know how to do it right, plus I am really good with kids.

Since middle school, I have been babysitting and have had a blast. I have always been good around kids and I have always loved school. Why not combine the experience of school and the being to teach kids?

Several people are credited for the love for teaching. My Kindergarten, First, Fourth-Eleventh grade teachers. That may be quite a bit of people, but their way of teaching got to me as something great.

 

 

Teach.com

When you go to the website of teach.com, they show many ways of how to become a teacher. For instance, you can transfer your teaching certificate from one state to another, and use teach.com for resources to find the right job.

Summer!

Even though school is out for the summer and there aren't any assignments to blog about, I thought why not just do a blog anyway? I mean its good practice and it gives a good excuse to not be bored. Each week I will do my best to write about what is going on during the summer.

For starters, I have gone to Six Flags twice already. It is a once a week thing and it's great! Each time that I have gone there has been close to noone! To make that clearer, I would walk up to the ride and get on the ride as soon as the gates opened for the next turn. That happened at every ride. Awefully unusual for the summer, but great for people like me!

Band has also filled up the summer. The fifth of June was the first day of masterclasses. Basically to explain this, it is a class where band kids of the same section get together to learn music, play their instrument, and learn to march. The frenchhorn section has an extra thing to learn; we have to learn or re-learn how to play with a melophone (marching frenchhorn). Usually, frenchhorn players use the left hand to push down the keys. In marching band, however, us frenchhorn players must learn to play with our right hand. This is a sort of difficult task, especially when we are so used to playing with the left hand.

Next week will be an add on. So far this summer has been a great introduction to Senior year.

Year in Review

Year in Review. This is my animoto.

This year was an experience.  My Animoto is just an idea of what I did.
