The first post that I commented on was a post about a reading program designed to help children read at a better quality. The post went on to explain how students in some parts of America are being taught to read as quickly as they can, ignoring punctuation and pronouncement. A fellow classmate commented that she has seen this abuse of a great reading program go on in her experience in student teaching. I am embarrassed that a teacher would think that it is more important to read QUICKLY than it is to read CORRECTLY.
The second post that I commented on was about a 2nd grade student that was coloring on her paper during class. The teacher asked her when she had time to color on her paper; the student replied that she colored on her paper while the teacher was playing on the computer. This is both sad and embarrassing! The poster of the blog went on to say that we never know who is watching us, and that only our students know how we really are in the classroom. As I shared in my comment, this post really motivated me to always be my best self in front of everyone, because we never know who is watching us when.
