well as themselves. I will start off by saying learning starts at home most children are not getting that at home support. To me it is mainly the boys. As a teacher I can see firsthand in my classroom that our boys are being failed. It is very clear who is being taught at home as well as in the classroom.

which I have struggled with my entire life. When I was little, I refused to wear clothes that had stains on them.

TUTORIAL GROUP 4 U1431032J HW0101 ASSIGNMENT 1 In an age of technological advancement and prevalence, conservative tutors have swiftly banned the face of laptop in classrooms (Daniel Rockmore’s The Case for Banning Laptops in the Classroom, 2014). This has sparked off the debate on whether laptops should still be used in classrooms. Rebecca Schuman is for it and presents her case well.

The teacher had lots of materials (i.e. books, scissors, glue, etc.) that were readily available to students and were housed in bin labeled appropriately. The teacher also had lots of storage that was placed at a higher level out of the student’s

Sweat beads the student's forehead, and the constant drumming of his fingers on the cool wood of the desk have seemingly become part of the room’s background noise. The student’s fingers rustle through the textbook, caressing the pages. The student’s eyes probe the text-filled page in front of him. The student glances nervously at the clock, then back to the worksheet on the desk. Five questions to go, and only two minutes left of class. The bell shatters the roaring silence that had engulfed the
