The QEP

Broad Areas of Learning

It's Important for students to be safe within the classroom following the correct guidelines

The goal is to help students grow not only their knowledge, but as people too

Educational aim

"To ensure that students adopt a self-monitoring proce
dure concerning the development of good living habits
related to health, well-being, sexuality and safety." (p. 44)

Educational Polotics

Understanding critical thinking concepts

I feel its important for students to foster the ability to critically think, helping them problem solve for the future.

Hands on learning

Students who participate in active hands on learning could help face issues that could come up in their future.

Use of technology in the classroom

I feel it is important but not nessasry. If students are giving the nessasry equipment to broaden their knolwedge and it can help them keep up with new expiriences

Equity Teachings

It's important to recognize other cultures within the classroom

As a future educator, it is important to incoporate different views from different parts of the world within the classroom

“An equity pedagogy exists when teachers use techniques and methods that facilitate the academic achievement of students from diverse racial, ethnic, and social-class groups” (Banks, 1993, p.9).

Holistic Views

I personally want to follow the holistic view of teaching

I want to bring taching into my classroom where students are emtionally and intellectually conncected with the evironment around them. (Physically and mentally)

“Holistic education fosters this awareness in ourselves and in students. We see the relationship between the physical, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of life.” (Miller. 2019. p. 8).

Play Based Learning

This can connect to the cross curricular competencies which have many positive outcomes

Story-times, morning affirmations, visual aids and intructions

Yoga with song, stretches after lunch, connecting with nature (Walks)

Sharing circles, sens of belonging, attention redirection, collaboration stations

Trauma responsive strategies, safe spaces, emotion charts

It's important as a teacher to encorporate play-based learning in the classroom for better environment
