A Little bit about myself:
My name is Stefanie I'm a student within the Teacher College at Brock University, I'm also a mother to a two and half year old little girl name Rosa and a Fiancée to Matthew wedding June 2017 :). Something that I enjoy outside of the classroom are camping, crocheting, spending time with my family. I'm very passionate about learning new thing which is why I chosen Teaching as my career.
My teaching thoughts is that every child has the ability to learn however they just may learn in a different way, this is a very personal teaching thought for me because I myself have a learning disability called Dyslexic which has able me to have a first hand experience in that not every child will learn in the same way.
This picture is a great example of what I believe we should not do to children when teaching them. Because if you judge a fish on it a ability to climb a tree it won't believe that he intelligent. This is the same for children if we judge them on only one of their ability they will live their lives thinking that they are not able to creating thing. However if we would take the time as Teacher and look at the children learning need and ability and understand that children learn in many different way and to incorporate many different learning strategy.
An example of a way to have children learn in different ways is the Genius Hours which allow the student to work on a project that interested them and also own their own learning time at their own learning speed, which will allow them to be more engage with they're learning and will grow up thinking that yes I'm able to do these things just in a different way. However just because student are able to learn and complete work at their own speed and interested does not mean that there are not things to follow when implanting a Genius Hours check out this example an a teacher who implemented a Genius Hours
