The above linked Person Education Essay focusses on A.S Neill’s Summerhill school where students are self-governed and students can learn where, when and what they want. This connects to my teaching philosophy in how Summerhill encouraged students to pursue their academic passions, and how it highlights the significance of students having free time.
For many years I have spent time daydreaming of the perfect school so I was very excited for the above assignment where we were asked to design a school, with a curriculum, experiences, aims for service, philosophy, and instructional methods. The School Design Proposal I created encompasses what I believe are important features in schooling and dives into the importance of personal satisfactory education.
The above planning assignment features a lesson plan for a Volleyball unit that I created. While the lesson was made to be inclusive I have also added possible modifications and preemptive measures that should be taken to make sure that all students thrive. I believe this assignment ties into my teaching philosophy by how it displays ways that I plan on teaching inclusively.
