Goal 5
The development of knowledge about curricular content, educational theory and effective practice:
One area that I have grown in my ability to critically examine my own practices and experiences. My experience with the grade 7 curriculum prior to this term has been almost entirely based on my own memories of elementary education. As this was a long time ago and seen through the eyes of a child, I found it’s been necessary to revaluate the knowledge that I need to teach to students in my In Classroom experience. I have learned how to access the BC curriculum and how to match my lessons to the prescribed learning outcomes. I have also gained several other resources (written, oral, and online) to assist in learning appropriate subject matter.
