Creativity Counts

Creativity is something all of us have. It's art, music, singing, creating a symphonic piece. It's creating a new programs for computers. Most of all it's shining out what your good at.

 Creativity is important in education, because it shows who you are as an individual and makes you stand out. It makes your mind flow and without creativity nothing would ever be invented.

Hire me, please!

1. For an interview I believe that I would have trouble by forgetting what I would say. My strength would be dressing up and being on perfect time, because if it's that important it's not likely of me to look sloppy or be late.
2. I can overcome my weaknesses by watching videos on youtube that show how to answer questions in an interview while still being yourself. I can accentuate my strengths by dressing up nice while having a great posture and a good handshake.
3. I have never applied for a job, but if I ever did I would make sure to put all truth.

Digital Learning Day

1. prezi.com
I would use prezi as a tool in the classroom by telling the kids to look up their most favorite fact about space and tell them to look up a picture about that fact. Then I would create a prezi and put each of their facts and pictures to show the class. On prezi you can sign up for free or sign up for other futures for an additional charge. When you sign up for the free account you put your first and last name, email, and a password.
2. In my statistics class we used a program where we saw how normal models changed their distribution.

Make It Happen-2012!

1. I want to spend more time with my family this year. During the course of this past year I had not been organized with my time. I am going to spend less time on the computer and doing things that are unimportant. All of that time spent will go to my family and me being able to be closer to my siblings and the rest of my family.
2. This past semester I didn't turn in everything on time, but I have been getting better. This semester I not only want to turn my work in on time, but also improve more on my work. Each six weeks I will make a goal on what and what not to do so that by the last six weeks I will have prepared myself to be a better student. Next year will be an even better year and I will have even higher goals to attain.

3. Out of everything I want to change, I mostly want to be closer to God. I want to have a better relationship with God and do what he has called me to do in life. To get closer to him I will set him first in my life. By doing that I will see what he wants me to see and I will change lives and be bolder.

The Ideal Classroom

My ideal classroom would be structured with educational displays on the walls and words of encouragement from poets. The students would be collaborating constantly, while growing their communication skills still staying on topic. High tables with tall soft chairs would conform with the corners. Bright inviting chairs would invite the students to learn new things. It would be more like them looking a random thing they were interested in.

Grinch or Santa?

Celebrating christmas has been a traditional holiday for many years. It has filled our lives with joy along with teaching about how other cultures might celebrate this same time of year. Students see how they can turn their green tree into a creative masterpiece. Celebrating the Christmas Holiday should be celebrated in the classroom. Christmas itself is what officially started most other holidays celebrated during the end of December and no one in the classroom is against others showing what their traditions are during these variety of holidays. It brings joy to the ones who feel left out when asked what they do for Christmas and in truth don't celebrate it at home, but would like to see what it's like with joy and food and cheerfulness.

American Teacher

My first impression was amazed, because I didn't realize how much time teachers had to put into teaching and how low an income alot really do have. The view I had changed, it's much more different than I had expected. Biggest frustrations teachers probably have with teaching is they don't really have the respect they should have and enough income to really be able to support their family. Teaching conditions could improve by just being organized and having a plan to work out everything accordingly. Teachers can be creative and use simple ever day objects like in this picture here was made out of toilet paper rolls, paint, and beads.

Some teachers may not have the most creative mind, but can use the internet like this site: Click here to view site.
