Teaching-learning philosophy

You are helping a new teacher prepare for his first day of class. One of his students, Wendy, has an emotional disorder, and the new teacher is unsure what to expect in terms of learning and social behaviors.

What should you tell him? B. List (5) behavioral or learning strategies that the teacher can implement

Use the whole class period, tell your students about yourself, discuss your teaching-learning philosophy, demonstrate your mode of teaching, cultivate your students’ trust, foster a spirit of free and open inquiry, display your enthusiasm for the subject, and finally, display a sense of humor. Don’t run out of time.

First Class Activities

Asking students to introduce themselves, ask you a question, talk about their expectations for the course, or introduce a partner are all good activities for the first day of class. Try to keep all the activities you do in the first lesson fun and light.
