My Philosophy of Education

Name Sarah Gruben

My Classroom Environment
My classroom will be a fun environment where they can be themselves and express themselves either
when we are drawing or doing fun activities. They will know it's a safe environment because I would be
really nice and be a friend to them so they can trust me and have a good time. We would also get to
know you games at the start of the school year. We will also have daily questions at the start of class

My Ideal Classroom
My classroom will have Fun decorations and rugs like lights. There will be a seating chart at the
beginning of the school year because no one really knows each other yet but towards the middle of the
school year they will be able to have flexible seating. There will also be a white board where we do our
lessons for the day. There will also be a spot where they can turn in their homework and there will be a
spot where they can get their absent work.

Student/Teacher Relationship
I think a student-teacher relationship is that good idea so the students can trust you and have a better
relationship with you so they can ask questions more. I want a relationship with my students so they
will have a good time in 2ND grade. I would want to be known as a really nice and fun teacher but you
can't be known as unless you have a relationship with your students. I would also do after school and
before school tutoring so they can be the most successful.

Motivating My Students
I would motivate my students by having quotes all around the classroom to keep them motivated.
Motivation is a very important part and a student's education because if they don't like what they're
doing they're not going to get the most out of it. I would also do different activities so they're not
bored. We will also do brain breaks so they don't get tired of what they are doing and quit.

My Primary Goal
My primary goal is to make sure they know the curriculum and get the most out of this class. I want to
be known as a nice teacher that's fun and helps you have a good time. I would also want to make sure
they have a fun time while also learning the material. I want my students to grow and reach their goals.
