Autistic Kids

As future teachers it is our duty to be informed of the possibility of one of us or all of us having an Autistic kid in our class. The signs of these childen give off may be that they are very figity, they do not like to be touched , it is hard for them to communicate, and they are most of the time mentally retarted. In some cases though it has been proven that Autistic children can be talented in systematic enviroments. They tend to not like change so this is good for them if they are placed in an area that operates in an routine manner.Most dont speak or walk until 5 yrs old. Some very rare cases Austitic kids can be sevants. Which means they are very brilliant in one specific area. Some of those areas may include, great memory with numbers, photographic memories that can be put into art, and musical talents that are un heard of. I hope by reading this you learned someting you didnt know about Autistic kids.

Being an Educator

My, name is Gaberiel Ecby and I strive each and everyday to hopefully be one of the best educators ever. I want to be able to reach the students as a friend , mentor, and most importantly teacher. Being a teacher is more than just ging through the motions, and setting up leson plans. To be a teacher you must understand childern. Children must be understood in a way that is clear to the instructor so that he or she is able to assist them. Also with being a teacher sometimes some children are going to heave special needs, and the teacher must clearly know those needs so that the child can learn. I hope to reach every child, and also potential staff, and faculty that I will work with in a positive way. I also want to make a giant impact in that young man's life that seems cloudy, and let them know that there is a brighter day, and that his education is the most important thing you can obtain to prosper in life.
