Personal Narrative: My Interview With A Teacher

It was interesting for me to see how to talk to parents when a child needs improvement. Julie Kimura did a lot of positive praise, so that parents knew she had their best interest in mind.

Jekoi D. Lassiter Personal Statement UNCG School of Education Degree Objective: M.Ed. My interest in the field of Education dates back to my primary years of school. Throughout my elementary years, I was always fascinated with aiding my fellow classmates in the area of reading comprehension, through the usage of breaking apart words and using the correct skills and strategies to attack reading passages and questions. This love for literacy increased throughout my grade school career. In my senior year of High School, I was provided the opportunity to participate in an Apprenticeship where I served as a Third Grade Teacher Assistant at one of the local elementary schools.

The Read Across America Initiative is an annual awareness program dedicated to getting children to start reading more. The National Education Association is in charge of this Initiative. On this day, kids pick their favorite book and choose to read it or it be read to them.

At one point Sherry describes her experiences of being an adult literacy teacher as an ethos (Sherry, 564). The example of Sherry being an adult literacy teacher is an amazing use of ethos (Sherry, 564), Sherry encourages the audience to trust her opinions by showing that she sees first hand the students that are passed along during school. This puts Sherry in the shoes of a professional of sorts, and who does not trust a professional opinion. That, however is not the only point of ethos in “In Praise of the F word”. Sherry’s other example is her own experience of being a mother to a son who went through the American school system (Sherry, 565).

Through feminism, women have equal access to education and this will, in turn, foster a new generation of educated mothers. The level of maternal education plays a crucial role in the child’s health and academic performance. A recent study has found that scholastic outcome throughout different life stages of a child is positively linked to higher levels of maternal education (Harding et al, 2015). Furthermore, children born to mothers who had them after completing their studies were superior academically compared to children born to teen mothers and mothers who did not complete their studies. (“Mothers’ education”, 2014).

We communicate daily with *Jacks mother through a home/school diary. At the beginning of each new term the class teacher, along with members of the SLT and *Jacks mother come up with new targets for his IEP (individual Education Plan).

Therefore, emails, newsletters, sign-up sheets, or phone call reminders can be given a month in advance. (Scully, Barbour, & King, 2015) A great tool teachers can use to assist the parents with academic involvement is to always have an open door policy.

WOW! What a great 2 day broadcast on Dr. Dobson 's Family Talk! I really found the author, Rebecca Hagelin, very inspiring. She shared so many practical ways for parents to strengthen their families. As a teen, I heard a conference speaker who urged parents to tell their kids "yes" consistently so when they needed to say "no", their kids were able to respect them and accept their "no" answers much easier.

Greeting Charlotte-Mecklenburg School Board Members, it has been brought to my attention that the board has approved a new state-mandated, textbook-based curriculum to be implemented in the kindergarten classrooms. As the parent of a child that will be entering kindergarten in the fall, this decision causes me great concern. It appears that your decision was reached without considering what would be best for the child.
