November Month Post

So, I have gone and volunteered with Ms. De La Pena and the last time I went before break was Friday. Ms. De La Pena had me doing the children's folders. I would pick their folder in alphabetical order of course, and then organize the contents in the folder in the order that she wanted them. It was all the picture classwork, then all the math classwork, and then all of the spelling test according to the easiest words spelled to the hardest. There are about 30 children in her classroom, so it took me a while.  For right now all that I have been doing in her class is just organizing especially because for the month of December they only have two weeks of school too so, she would rather get ahead in all the "paperwork" for the month of January. So, I will be doing a lot of printing, stapling and stacks of paper so all she would have to do is pass out the worksheets.

Blog #9: EQ

1. I reviewed the rule of three for writing an EQ. 

2. "A.", "B.", and "C." does not meet the criteria for the rule of three for a EQ because  it ask the most important factor. Basically stating to name the most important factor to weight loss, securing a conviction, and the best hairstyle to the client to us. These three questions start with "What is the most important factor in…" , and the phrasing(format) of the questions asks to name one thing not several and identify the best out of those. Theses questions do not provide a stance. Basically for these three questions the person will just be reciting facts to provide a "backbone" to their answer but won't argue why it is the best answer out of others that may seem like a good candidate.  "D."  does meet the requirements for the rule of three it gives the person the basis to say how many ways there are to treat chronic pain and explain them and then conclude as to which this person thinks is the best. It also starts with "How can a …" rather than "What is the…".

3.  Working EQ: What is the best way for an elementary school teacher to run a classroom that will maximize the students' successor the coming academic year?
