Blog #9: Home/School Connection

On March 24th at 7:30 pm, I attended my school district, Oceanside's, Board of Education Meeting. This meeting covered the school's budget for next year, nutrition in the district, and the return of remote students to in-person learning this month. The panel of board members was made up of about 10 to 12 people. All who came prepared to speak on the most interesting topic, the return of remote students. The meeting went through the budget and nutrition pretty quickly, but once the board switched to the topic of remote students returning to in-person learning, it got intense.

So many people are ashamed or embarrassed to admit that they struggle with their mental health when in reality, everyone struggles with it! The mental health issue I chose to research was Obsessive-Com...

Blog Post #2: School Violence

After reading the two articles and watching the film I have gained a lot of knowledge on school violence. I know some leading causes and how we can prevent school violence. As a future educator school violence is always a concern for me. I want to ensure that my classroom is a safe and welcoming environment. The most significant topic I have always said I want to foster into my classroom is safety. I do not the extremes of my student's lifestyle and I want to foster an environment where they can come into my classroom and feel safe. I intend to teach kindergarten and low elementary grade levels in the future. This is significant because I have these kids at a young age and I can educate them on how to be a good person. Since they are so young I can give them the tools they need to be kind and caring for people. We can cover topics like bullying (physical, verbal, and social), teasing, and maybe even cyberbullying if they are of age. But by exposing them at a young age to what not t...
