A Forgotten Child Remembers Reflections on Education.”.docxransayo
“A Forgotten Child Remembers: Reflections on
Education.” by Laura Perez
In 5th grade, I was able to recite all of the presidents. I sat at a corner desk
by the door, and in front of me, above the chalkboard, a poster of the
presidents’ faces lined the wall in chronological order. Each morning I
would come in and read their names once, close my eyes, and recite them
without peeking. However, in the middle of that year, my life at home
became increasingly stressful. I wasn’t able to pay attention in class,
because all I could think about was my life outside of school. I became
depressed and stopped doing my homework, going to the library, and
reading all together.
My teacher was often angry with me. He would say things like, “Everybody
in the class is doing their work, why aren’t you?” and, “I can’t understand
why you come to school without your homework.” And although he asked
why my homework wasn’t getting done, he never actually took the time to
stop and find out the answer. Instead, he had an attitude that, to me,
seemed as if he expected nothing more from me. His snide comments and
uncaring attitude would eventually lead to my own feelings of apathy in
regard to school. I recall, vividly, one event in particular. I came into class
one morning after a rough night at home and my teacher asked me if I had
done my homework, which for the first time in a long time, I had. I told him
that I did it and had to get it from my back pack. The whole class waited in
silence, I could feel their eyes watching me while I ran to the cupboards to
get it, and at that moment, when I opened my back pack, I realized that I
had left it at home. Feeling completely humiliated, standing there in front of
the class, he said, “You don’t have to lie Laura. I know that you didn’t do it.”
My heart sank into my stomach, heat radiated through my body, and my
face turned red. I told him that I did do it and left it on the dresser in my
bedroom. He continued to tell the other children in class, while I was
standing there, that if they didn’t do their homework, they would not be
successful; he was telling them that I would not be successful. At that
moment, I wanted to run and hide, but I didn’t. I held back tears on the way
to my seat and simply rested my head for the remainder of the period.
In his book, Lives on the Boundary, Mike Rose writes, “Students will float to
the mark you set.” Unfortunately for me, and for all of the students in my
class, our teacher had set a very low mark. The school, located in a fairly
affluent community, was a place of education for children of all
socio-economic backgrounds. Maybe the teacher just figured all of his
students were living an easy life and, at the age of 10 his students had no
stresses or worries. He never made an attempt to learn these things, and
instead of being inspirational and positive, he taught all of us a lesson
about humiliation and failure. Because I had not met h.

I enjoyed reading your post. Teachers have to deal with a lot of situations. Different types of behaviors are sometimes very hard to deal with, but a teacher has to always be on guard and not let the situation get the best of them. I think think that a lot of students misbehave because there is a lot taking place at their home environment and sometimes students may have more needs than others. Some students aren't receving the attention that they are desiring at home. Students face a lot of difficult situations outside of school. I don't think that indiviuduals realize how much your environment has an effect on a you. A teacher must know instantly how to deal with situation when they arise in the classroom. A lot of times when students are having behavioral issues it disrupts and distracts the rest of the students. I think that a lot of times disruptive behavior isn't fair to the other children who want to learn. I know that we all have off set days at times, but different types of behaviors will take away from your instruction time. You have to reallly know how to deal with the situation when it comes.
Many teachers have consequences for the students who misbehave in the classroom. Me personally, if it is an ongoing situations that keeps taking place I would notify the parents about having a meeting.
I am a preschool teacher and yes I have had to deal with a lot of situations. We have a lot of foster children that come to our center at times and it's a battle sometimes. When students act out, I sit and wonder what has the students been through. I know that it is hard to be moved from one place to the next and it's hard when you don't have your parents. My heart is moved with compassion for these students. I know it's hard. I wonder what would I have done without having my mom. I know that there is emptiness. I ask the question, what did their parents do to get put in the predicament of being separated from their children.
I look at my job as a ministry and not just a job. Children need support, compassion, encouragement, and motivation. You have to seriously know how to handle the different situations when they arise. Sometimes I wonder is there any trainings that they have to take in order to deal with off set behavior, but I believe that prayer can handle anything.
