My class normally never have problems, until we went to "specials". Our class was mixed upo with a bunch of other students from other classes. Partically, I noticed these two boys that were very disruptive and talkative while sitting next to each other.If the teacher was to "alter the group structure", the class would be less disruptive and it would become a better learning environment. :]

It is important to be child centered to help the kids trust the teacher and look up to them. It would also show teh student that they are important to the teachers and it may help inspire them to be a better student.
Teachers are held to a accountability because they are role models. If the teacher cuss, the students will also, so the teach are held to a higher standard.
You can communicate through e-mails, conferecences, through the students, through organizations, and meetings.
Activeboards and calculators are very important. Also, computers and itouch are both essential to learning because it gives access to the internet and Microsoft because some students may not have it at home.
FUN, FUN, FUN! Yesterday, was by far the most fun day of all days that I went. I went to specials with the children and they gave me silly bands and I hoola hooped with them. We had a hula hooping contest, and of course, I won. Haha, just  kidding, I actually lost. I also did a group activity to help them learn how to divide. I already miss them and cannot wait to come back next week.
