No Child left behind looks very good on paper and has very
good intentions. Ultimately, it is extremely hard to say that every student in
the school will be able to pass the standards. The demands for No Child Left
Behind are extremely high and almost impossible for every school to obtain. My
goal is to try my hardest and teach in as many different ways as possible so
that the majority of my students will benefit from my teaching. In all reality
though, it is extremely hard to say that every single student will be at a 100
percent reading and math. It is said that, “More and more schools-many of them
good or at least improving- are being labeled failures.” We should be
commending these schools for improving and making a conscious effort for these
students. The goal is just unrealistic.
Now, I mentioned earlier that I will strive to meet the
needs of all students. This goal will be met by providing a variety of
different methods of teaching. There will be group work, hands on activities,
side notes, lectures and use of technology. Ultimately, I hope to reach the
needs of all of my students with these type of learning environments. I have had some experience with inclusion and
it has seemed have a positive outcome.
The students in my class went out of their way to include the special
needs student. He was made some improvements in reading the material provided
and has a positive attitude in whatever he does.
