OLIMPICS 2012

DANTE ALIGHIRI SCHOOL

OLIMPICS 2012 

Once again it was held the ANNUAL SCHOOL OLIMPICS-2012 at Dante Alighieri School. 

The purpose of this activity is to inspire students to participate in sports and adopt and live healthy lifestyles".

 There is no doubt the importance of sports and games in school encompasses more than just the benefit of physical activity, it increases students’ self-esteem and mental alertness that is why it is necessary for every student to practice school sports . 

So, students from primary and secondary levels put weeks of training and preparation to practice as they compete in track and field events against each class. According to Theodore Hesburgh, author of "The Importance of School Sports and Education," it is imperative for school students to have access to sports and games.

 Not only does it empower youth and promote higher self-esteem, it also motivates students, enables them to earn better grades, maintain a healthy weight, preventing chronic diseases and learns the skills necessary to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Finally, I want to thank my partner Arlette Uceda, my dear students and my classroom committee for their valuable cooperation during the Olympics’ week

ACTIVITIES TO EMPOWER STUDENTS' LEARNING

TEACHING TECHNIQUES TO EMPOWER STUDENTS’ LEARNING

Twenty first century education is demanding, it breaks the pattern; it is flexible, innovative, challenging and difficult. It happens in context and its main aim is to captivate every student’s interests. So, What does teaching encounter? How can students get the most of their classes? Teaching is not planning activities in terms of what the teacher will be doing in class, but in terms of what the students will be able to do with the new material once it is presented and internalized. Teaching is a decision-making process in which the teacher considers a variety of options to facilitate the learning process. It is a dynamic bond between individual learners and the teacher.
This workshop will provide easy techniques that teachers can use to observe activities and content from the perspective of student learning in order to have students actively involved in their learning process and engaged with the lesson material.

MY PHYLOSOPHY OF TEACHING

There are many concepts to define teaching. For instance, Leo Bartlett in his idea of teaching describes it as an interactive process among a group of people learning in a social setting usually described as “the classroom”.
For Gore (1987), however, this description of an interactive process is the need to develop shared understandings in a community of knowledge users and developers. The list of definitions is indeed never-ending but they would all in the end concur in one main point: teaching involves students’ needs and beliefs.
From my own point of view, to teach is to give, to impart knowledge to learners in an active and dynamic way. Teaching is engaging students in events inside and outside the classroom as well as providing knowledge in an inspirational way. To make this true, there are important teaching components such as: teaching styles, techniques and strategies to develop good teaching that should be taken into account. In addition, it is necessary to be involved in observing and reflecting upon our own teaching and the learning behavior of our students.
Thus, I have been involved in teaching throughout this time because I find it rewarding and challenging. Along the years as a teacher, I have acquired a strong baggage as a quality teacher, but most of all, I have realized that studying and researching are without question the best tools for a teacher who wants to achieve self-improvement. Therefore, I’m aware that knowledge is endless and that a first-rate teacher is someone who keeps reinventing themselves and knows that learning is part of an everyday process. Professional teachers must then continue studying and looking for new expectations and technology.

When I teach, I use communicative methods so as to have student-centered lessons rather than teacher-centered ones. I believe it is vital to use communicative methods in order to have a participating and dynamic lesson. Creativity is my forte and also a plus because it enables you to design creative lessons that will enhance your class and delight your students. What is more, using Pair group and group work will motivate students when developing communicative tasks.

My respect and regard for my weak and strong students go without saying. I never compare them let alone make them feel deflated. To my eyes, they are all special because while the strong ones are active learners, the weak ones endeavor to acquire more proficiency of the language. In this sense, teaching equals challenge since the teacher’s goal is advancing their students’ education.
Through it all, I have also discovered that being friendly, confident, cheerful, flexible and resourceful facilitates the betterment of a class. Although the personality traits of my students differ greatly, I have learned how to understand their differences and similarities with respect, love and sympathy. As facilitators, we have to assist them whenever a need arises and to provide them with the necessary tools in order to clear up their doubts and help them attain their learning goals.
To conclude, teaching is more than just providing knowledge, it is a commitment, a challenge that a teacher must tackle not only to make students learn but also to set the foundations of their future success
