Final Blog Post- My Thoughts and Reflection






With only a few days left in the semester, I was excited to film this vlog and be able to talk about some of the things that impacted me the most, stood out to me and ideas that I hope to implement into my classroom. This class truly was a great way to set a foundation in education for me and opened my eyes to so many issues that take place in classrooms and schools around the country. Many of these issues I had a little but of previous knowledge but having so many different resources available to me throughout the modules I was able to expand my knowledge greatly. Without further ado, I will let you watch my vlog for this week’s final blog post! Hope you enjoy!

    Hey Kailey!
    I felt that the home-school connection module we learned this semester was essential! we got to learn so many new strategies to bring our students' home life into our student's education! You are so right about smiling at the parents, which could make you seem friendly and open to talk to and it is so important! I think the parent study guides are extremely beneficial because so many people don't understand the math or science lessons their children are learning in school. I know my parents weren't able to help me too much with my homework when I was younger and I think they would feel the same way as your dad did because they would be able to get a basic rundown of the students' lessons. I also thought that mindfulness was an important unit this semester as well! I remember doing some mindfulness activities in school and I think that it really does help relieve stress, especially during high-stress times such as midterms and finals. I think you have a great understanding of all of the topics we learned this semester and I enjoyed hearing your insight on the topics you feel are important in education! Great job! Have a great rest of your year!

  [How Does Social Media Affect Your Health?].(2021). https://foothillsneurology.com/how-does-social-media-affect-our-mental-health/ Social Media and Technology Use in Schools I have grown up using and having access to technology and social media. In school, SMART boards were installed into every single classroom in first grade. In first grade I was five years old. When I was in eighth grade my school district began to give out Chromebooks to every single student. When I was a senior in high school the school district thought that the SMART boards were not good enough anymore and changed to a more advanced board. Even now as a 19 year old college student writing this blog on my computer, technology is essential to learning. It is necessary.  I think that there is a difference between social media use in schools and technology that needs to be acknowledged. I do not think that social media is beneficially in school and in the classroom but I do think that technology is. I ...

              [Mindfulness-Just Imagine].(n.d.).https://justimagine.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/mindfulness-1024x683.jpg Importance of Mindfulness in the Classroom for Both Students and Teachers Mindfulness. Many would think it is a very simple thing to do and implement into their lives. But, for students and teacher it is not a top priority.  Mindfulness is used as a way for people to relax, learn how to calm themselves and just take a minute from themselves to “escape” the real world momentarily. Mindfulness has really gained a lot of popularity in the last couple of years and has been used in school districts and classrooms across the United States in order to help students and teachers.  In this day in age young children are being put under a tremendous amount of pressure to be perfect, get the best grades and to be the best at all times whether its in or out of the classroom. Although these pressures should not be placed on children...
