Sometimes as teachers we read some protocols but having example it helps us to better understand cases.

WE need to know our student's learning process and which of the approaches we need to implement to better serve them.

Students need to be described based also on their relationship with adults. When we are able to give answer to those question, we re more prepared to create trust relationship with our children.

As a future teacher, the connection with my student's parents is an important key in education. One thing that I want to work with my host teacher is that relationship and creating an environment to be able to let parents be able to talk with us about their child.

I observed that some teachers put a name on their students without knowing them, or why their behavior is like that. I believe in a restorative circle as a way to talk and to create that relationship with our students, educators, parents, where we give the possibility to our students to express themselves. In this way, we learn about their needs.

When I started taking a science course, sometimes I felt exhausted and I want it to drop the course. it was not an easy process to talk to myself and find a solution, I saw that are many different ways to solve this problem, and asking for help is a way that I do not feel uncomfortable anymore. I start to build plan B or C, in case my plan A does not work. I was not seeing that as a failure but as a way to persist in my success.

I found myself in most of those habits, and I like to practice as much as I can, questioning myself while taking an action, or saying anything, before saying something to someone or giving an opinion. We need to take into consideration other people's ideas, opinions, and feelings. We are not all the same, but using the habits of minds we can create a positive environment and an healthy relationship with others.

When I came to the USA, for me was a risk to leave my family there, my job, and everything that connected me with my country. Today I see that risk as a responsible one, since it was for a better life and having more opportunities for myself. I want for my students to think intellectual way and being capable to think and question themselves why I am taking that risk?.

I was doing Yoga for a while, and as a person that I react very quickly, it helps me to talk before with my own self before jumping to conclusions.

I had a period of tie that I thought was not able to succeed, that I am a failure and I was able to quit. Taling to myself and thinking about mistakes that made me stronger I was able to fight that fear, and try and try again to achieve my goals. Today when I look back I see those mistakes, and action as a positive rewards that made me who I am today.

It is very important as you said using strategies can help students and also building trust in them how to use computational thinking.

Seeing myself thinking and trying to use different blocks to see their connection and how they work so I can create a project, gave me an impulse to introduce that to my students. I was able to do biology concepts through a scratch and I was amazed how students were able to create different projects and share them with other students around the eworls. Scratch is a way to connect the world together through technology.

I come from a country where we did not have computers at all in our schools. When first I was present with a computer I was so frustrated because nobody told me how to use it or I have the right to use it. I do not like when teachers make differences between students. Everyone should ber able to use computer skills.

If students have some kind of instructions to follow they perform better. That is very important in Algorithms. It contains standards that help students to understand better new concepts.

Using Scratch for me was a game-changer, I was able to introduce to my students and instead wasting their time playing in computer they use Scratch to improve their skills how to create a project or how to invent a game that requires some skills.

I can say that Scratch has so many options that students too can be very creative.

I was blamed for not being able to do that or this, but I talked to myself that mistakes and experiences teach us how to do things next time the appropriate method. Mistakes make us face our fears. I never thought I was able to handle alone my life in another country far away from my family. I moved to the USA alone when I was 25 and through my hard work, mistakes, during my moments of crying and laughing I was able to succeed and to achieve my goal. Mon, 19 Jul 2021 16:47:38 -0400
