melinda grant case study 10.3

My opinion on this situation is that since melinda is a first year teacher, she should take advantage of this predicament. Her friend barbara has her own way of doing things and that all's about the testing. You only get to be a first year teacher once and melinda can take advantege of this by trying out anythings she feels like doing. If she does something wrong she can always use the excuse, "sorry i'm new at this". If she gets fired she can find a job anywhere, since she is a first year teacher she can start at a low paying rate so anyone would hire her.

video clip one

my opinion on the first clip is that teachers do anything to help their students learn. although competitive games is one of the best way but it has its ups and down. No matter how old the child is, most of them can't accept to lose in a game. They all learned from the review and they'll all do well on their test but we need to find better ways to help the students with their learning process.
