Week 13 Blog Post
Dr. Seuss: The Zax
I really enjoyed watching this short video. Dr. Seuss really has a lesson for every situation. In this story the zax meet each other while crossing paths and will not compromise on which way to go. This stubbornness is seen in many teachers today. So many will not change their ways of teaching even though they are outdated and are not sufficient for students' education in the new technological society. It is the teacher's duty today to adapt to the ever changing environment of education. Failing to do so only hurts the future of our students.
Another PS 22 Video
This was an amazing video. The children did an outstanding job with the song and Stevie Nicks was absolutely estatic after watching the video. This is just one reason why it is important to post their work to blogs. Without doing so they would have probably never had the great and rare opportunity to join Stevie Nicks on stage to sing with her. Posting to blogs help us to share our thoughts and feelings with the world. You never know who might just see it and in this case the right person did.
Another example of why it is important is the learning experience taken from posting blogs. It gives the student the opportunity to not only let their voice be heard but also allows them to look at other students work and learn something from their peers. Posting blogs is an important tool that should not be taken for granted.
