“A general definition is Social justice is the view that everyone deserves equal economic, political and social rights and opportunities.” This is so important to be aware of in the classroom. Everyone deserves to be treated fairly no matter what their ability or disability might be. As a teacher I am the leader who implements who the classroom will run and the flow of things. I need to be a role model for my class and show them how to treat each other. There are going to be days that are going to be harder than others but I need to make sure that each day I come with an open mind and a clean slate for each student.
Being in my student teaching placement, observing and doing novice teaching has really shown my how diverse my students might be in my future classroom. I need to recognize and understand my student’s backgrounds to better under my student’s as a person. In Standard two it states that the “The competent teacher understands how individuals grow, develop, and learn and provides learning opportunities that support the intellectual, social, and personal development of all students.” As their teacher I will be my student’s mentor and support system to help them to grow, develop, and to provide learning opportunities that every child can learn from.
