Week 7

This week in class was a pretty big eye opener for me that I learned from just a little thing. In class we drew a concept map as w hole class to go over what it was that we read for that week. This last week was all about a classroom environment and different things we can do to enhance the experience the students feel. As we were going up we were hitting the big main points that were mentioned in the reading, but Brother Cloward kept telling us that we were missing something really important, but we all thought that we had hit the main points. He them started talking to us about individuality and we are all important, we are all children. This led us to adding things such as  we are all children of God and that every individuals progression is very important. This was a very good lesson for me to learn thing week. I feel sometimes we can miss out on this and just see our students as just students. We can get so caught up in just teaching curriculum, grades, or even just keeping our sanity throughout the day.  But when we really remember that we are all children of Heavenly Father and that we all have a purpose we go from a textbook kind of teacher to one who teacher by feeling and needs of the students. We should never forget the divine nature we all have a children of God, even in the classroom.
