Witty Wednesday's

My theme for Wednesday each week is witty Wednesday’s. On this day I will share something funny that relates to my topic of education. Witty Wednesday’s are made to brighten the mood, and have some relatability to you because almost everyone can relate to school.

This image is very relatable when being in school; after reading this list it reminds me of high school more than college at IUSB. High school, more than likely, to most everyone is a place that you don’t really want to be. In high school you feel as though you can make you own decisions but yet you are not treated as an adult and you are forced to take classes that you feel don’t pertain to you, or you don’t like and you have absolutely no freedom during the school day except maybe at lunch. Because of this, school becomes a place that most students do not want to be. As a future teacher it is my responsibility to change this perspective of school, and make my classroom a fun and productive place to be.

I hope that everyone has had the experience of at least one teacher in his or her lives that was fun and you loved going to that class everyday. This teacher, usually for most people, is a teacher that they had in elementary school. This is because in elementary school, everything seems fun because it can be themed for our favorite Disney characters. Growing up, classrooms become more boring because themes are something of the past, and curriculum takes over and sucks the fun out of everything. There is no time for interactive activities like there was in your younger years, or so the high school teachers think. I plan on making my classrooms as interactive as possible; this helps to motivate students to want to come to class. When students are motivated, authentic learning can take place in the classroom and student progress occurs.
