A Sad Goodbye to my last methods course of my undergraduate career!
Throughout my methods courses in my undergraduate career, I have learned to teach literacy, mathematics, social studies, and now science methods! I have learned so much about myself through my reflection of each of the lessons I have ever taught whether it be through self-reflection or group reflections. Through the feedback that I have received from peers, professors, and myself, I have truly learned so much about the world of teaching and I will forever be grateful for the experiences that I have endured in order to take me on my road to success for Student Teaching NEXT SEMESTER!!
Through this course of science methods I have truly worshipped the beauty and meaning behind quality feedback and self-reflection! Through my presentations to just my colleagues and my teachings to my fourth grade students, I have realized that feedback and reflecting on your own teaching is the number one aspect when it comes to improving ourself in anything!
Through constructive comments from my professor, my classmates, my fourth grade students and most importantly myself, I was able to reflect on my performance and teaching methods and it has changed me from the inside out!
Without reflection, I would not be the teacher that I am today! Trial and tribulation is such an important aspect when it comes to teaching science or any other content area! As a future teacher, I must constantly critique myself and others in order to truly reach my full potential as an educator! If I settle for the educator that I am right now, I will never allow room for growth! This is why reflection and editing to oneself is such an important aspect that I not only love to learn to fix myself as an individual, but to also help my students!
Without reflection, the leaves of learning would never help me to grow into a beautiful educator that can water my students as my flowers!
