yesterday at westwood i had a fun day.
when i got there the teacher wasnt there at the begining of the class cause she got stuck in traffic.
when she got there i was waiting for her in the class with the kids.
we did the calendar like usual they do it daily and then they started talking about living and non living things and the teacher took them outside, gave them a paper with a line in the middle and told them to write the living things on one side and the non living things on the other side and i was going around helping them and after a while we went back in the class and went over it with them and it was so cute cause some of the kids thought water and rocks were living and stuff. i had fun(:

my day at westwood was awesome..
the teacher always has an objective on the board and when the kids walk in they already know what to do and take out of their backpack before they put them up.
once they sit down they need to take their homework out, put it on the table and take their book oout and read untill the teacher gets to them to check their homework.
after that they go and sit on a carpet that she has infront of the board and do the calandar where they recite the months, days and more and its one day in spanish and another day in english so they can practice both.
and after that they go on. liuke what the teacher has in store for them and the lessons they will be learning are also on the board for the rest of the day.

my day at westwood was a success i worked with a few kids outside because they were having trouble reading and identifying the words them selves so i was outside the classroom showing them and trying to teach them the words they were having trouble and reading them a book and then they had to read it to me.
the new policy at spring woods high school is and effective way to decrease the growth of tardies because the kids do not want to be stuck in iss and they also want to exempt the final exams so they make it to class on time.
but on the other hand there can be a lot of causes that can make them tardie without being their fault!
and still pay for it because the principals dont cause they only pay attention about the fact that you were tardie and thats that! youll go to iss!

my day at westwood was really fun..
the kids had a hands on activity that involved play-doh and paint really messy if you try thid with your kindergarden class. but i was impressed when the teacher would tell the kids something and the kids imideatly did it. without her screaming and yelling.. with one clap the kids stopped what they were doing and they listen to her to what the next instructions.

My day at westwood was fun. i helped the teacher check the kids homework and read to them.
after that something impressing happened the ms.gomez pulled out a box and asked me if i could help her and i said yesm ofcourse she pulled out 7 itouches and asked me to download some game apps for them like adding and subtracting and stuff like that i was so impressed because all the kids in there knew what it was and they're in kindergarden! and they all knew how to use them and stuff.. technology is becoming a big part of education because the kids think its cool just by using them and they are also learning while having fun!

my thoughts about yesterday were good because everybody stayed calmed and did not panick and they guided us outside making sure there was nobody left in the building. knowing that all the senior class was there with only a few teachers they all split up and made sure that we were all outside.
when tony was talking to us about how his life was and everything that happened to him, it all lead back to steriotyping just because they saw that he was maxican they automatically thought he was dumb and just an illegal person which was not true.
now a day people use alot of steriotyping not only by the race but also by age, family background and education. all those listed abouve give other people a chance to look down on somebody else for them to feel like they're more powerful.
but steriotyping is not correct because not all the people of the same race is the same.
same as age and so on.
