What lengths am I willing to go in order to do right by every child?

 One thing that I will find very important in my classroom is that treat everyone how they want to be treated; I will teach my students the golden rule and make sure they go by it. Bullying will not be allowed in my classroom; if I see it happen, I will confront my children and give them a warning; if it keeps happening, I will send them to the office so their parents can be called. To ensure I am doing right by my children, I will ensure I am very knowledgeable in the topic I will be teaching and make sure my children are learning correctly. I want to be sure I am treating every student equally. I will make sure everyone is treated the same and will be treated as if. I will teach my students the goals that should be made in the classroom. If students end up being bad they will be warned the first time and then punished. I want to ensure my children also have fun, so I will make activities fun but also teach my kids. I will make sure I am always in a good mood and optimistic about teaching because I want to enjoy my job and enjoy teaching my kids so my children will also enjoy school. I will also ensure my students know they can always come to me for help or questions. Every student should know they are not alone, and I'm always here to help them every step of the way. I will also help my student's parents if they need help or need advice or with any questions they have because it is important to keep students parents in the loop.

How does gender affect the teaching profession?

Gender can affect the teaching profession because if you create a bias in the classroom, students will accept or even create their own literacy experiences. It is important to have gender awareness, you can help children explore who they are and help them gain their own self-confidence, and peer acceptance. If you have a bias it can have a negative impact on the students education goals, and it also affects economic growth. If students start dealing with inequality they will start believing that it is normal, so they will bring that into society. You have to make sure you do not seperate the male and female students. Do not allow male students to interrup female students when they are speaking. You can also make them work together. You have to avoid stereotypes and make sure you are being inclusive. It is important to do all of this because you do not want to create an environment that makes either gender uncomfy. If you do not do this this can create bullying, stereotyping, and even can create inequality between the students. This might even cause some students to not enjoy school, they might stop engaging in classwork or start to get depressed. It is important to make all your students feel equal, you should treat the students the same no matter what and this will cause the classroom to be an equal chance to learn for both genders. If you do see some students not listening, you should talk privately with them and explain that it is not allowed in your classroom.

Is schooling Equitable?

 In my own opinion I feel that school is not equitable. Equitable means fair and equal. Without having a equitable school students will trust their school less. One example of this is that school makes grades and marks very important. Children might feel pressured on making good grades, they might be struggling with a certain topic or class. Schools make it seem like they do not care for the students passions and ambitions, most classes do not cover all careers. Such as some kids want to be doctors, engineers, and ect. But there are not many classes that can cover other passions as example, art classes are seen as a extra curricular. Schools tend to have dress codes, which means they have to cut their hair, have to wear a uniform, and most schools do not allow eletrionic devices. Schools should make students passions more important and make students passion for school better. If students are passionate about their school and classes they will be more likely to succeed or make good grades. Also with disapline, it can create difiance with students. Some students might be targeted more than the other students which is not fair at all. To make schools fair they must make sure marginalized students are treated equally and getting the support they need. To make school fair also you must understand, have fairness, and have humanity. It is important to make an environment that avoids divisiveness and tackles racism and all other forms of intolerance, which you can do with fairness.
