Leadership

This morning I had my saxophone  lesson I showed leadership by trying my best so this afternoon I can help others.

My next step is to be more organised so I can set up before my lesson

leadership

Last Friday I had my saxophone and band lesson the reason i don't have so many post about this is because Adianfield has been away most weeks I showed leadership by helping other saxophone people that are in my band.



On Monday I helped Miss Ward I showed leadership by volunteering my lunch to help in the library.



On Tuesday I showed leadership by being a role model on the year 7 leadership day when others were being silly.

Leadership

Today I did peer mediation we only had one problem which was only a little kid itching a itchy bite when she was eating her lunch which was easy to fix.

On Thursday me and Lauren went down to room 10 and 11 and reminded them about wet lunch. I think I showed leadership by being patient with the teacher if it wasn't there normal teacher.  

Homework Challenge E2 - Interview someone who is in a job that interests you

I decided to complete homework challenge E2 which is to interview someone who is in a job that interests you.  I decided to interview Paula as she is a Preschool Teacher and I enjoyed my work experience so much I thought this would be interesting to find out more about being a Preschool Teacher.

First I designed a questionnaire and then interviewed Paula.

1. What is your name? - Paula Wilson 
2. What is your job? - Preschool Teacher
3. How long have you been in your job? - Over 10 years
4. What made you interested in your job? - I started baby sitting while at High School and I enjoyed working with  young kids.
5. Did you always want to be a Preschool Teacher? - No I first thought I wanted to be a nurse but very glad I choose the path of a Preschool Teacher.
6. What qualifications do you need for your job? - Diploma of Teaching Early Childhood Education and I also got my Teacher Registration. Teacher Registration is optional but beneficial and also means a higher pay.
7. How long was your training? - 3 years, mainly practical placements in the third year.
8. Where did you go for your training? - NZ College of Early Childhood Education.
9. What is the best thing about your job? - Working with children and it is lots of fun watching them grow and develop.
10. What are the things you don't like about your job? - Paperwork and staff meetings.
11. What was one of your best moments at your work and why? - Having grateful parents that appreciate the job you do.
12. What is the hardest thing about your job? - Talking to the parents when a child has behavior issues / problems.
13. If I was interested in doing your job for my career what would your advice be to me?

• Make sure you get your qualifications including teacher registration
• Be prepared to dance and sing with the children
• Be a good role model and get involved with activities with the children.

Leadership

Today I had peer mediation and got assigned to a different area of the school than I had been doing.  I showed leadership by keeping focused on my job despite lots of little kids jumping all over me.  I had fun today and it's good to give back to the little kids.

Leadership

• On Monday I had librarian and I was the only one there so it was very busy and I think I showed leadership by doing both jobs at once.

• Wednesday I had peer mediation I showed leadership by sorting out a problem between two groups of young girls and did it with respect.

Jubilee writing

Oaklands school had their 50th Jubilee on labour weekend this year. I am in ar 7. In 50 years time when they have their 100th Jubilee I will be 61. In 50 years I think these changes would have happened at oaklands school... BYOD stands for Bring-Your-Own-Device- I think most kids will have their own device and bring it to school every day.also, I think it will be all open plan in the class rooms so heaps of kids the same year in one class room and have like 4 teachers in the same class room. plus I think the C.A.R.E values would have changed { Community-Active thinking-Respect-Excellence } to some thing else, but I still think they will use C.A.R.E as the starting letters. I am not looking forward to turning 61 but I am looking forward to coming back to this school.
