Writing and Teaching Community

In order to create a learning environment for the children in your class you must know about them personally. Every student has different strengths and weakness's and learns in their own way. If we can create an environment so that all of our children have a place that they feel comfortable they will be able to learn better. If you take time to get to know your students they will then trust you and feel as if they can approach you. Having students feel comfortable to ask you, the teacher, and other students questions is a very important part of creating a writing, and teaching community. This will allow students to improve upon their writing, and take suggestions from you without feeling as if they are doing something wrong.

  1. Trust is a huge factor in the relationship between teacher/student. It has to be earned and proven. We've seen examples of this through Sahara.
