Blog 1: My Personal Advocacy Journal.


The one thing that inspire me about my advocacy plan is working with the professionals about help them create strategies that would improve classroom management.  The things that excites me are researching about management behaviors and safety, finding strategies that would work for the child's needs and interacting with the teachers and children while analyzing my plan to engage in my in my advocacy plan.  Research as shown that teacher's action in their classrooms have twice the impact on student achievement as do school policies regarding curriculum, assessment, staff collegiality and community involvement (Marzano, 2003a & ASCD).  It's important to stay on every situation and hope for a change in the social classroom environment.  

The biggest challenges is to figure out each child main causes of their behaviors and making sure that the parents get involve in the child's situation. I really hope to make a difference in changes of representing my improvement plan.  I also hope that they understand the reasons and help build a positive reinforcement in the classroom.  The most effective way of helping parents overcome these situation is to talking them to them individually and discuss ways to help them understand the importance of safety. This would establish clear expectation and consequences, learning goals, and exhibit assertive behaviors throughout the each classrooms. The ways to encourage others in my advocacy plan is to offer reinforcement strategies to identity the appropriate behaviors used to create awareness in children's future learning.
