Seymour School Teacher

This teacher teaches all grades in High school. He/She doesn't teach with the proper techniques. What we do in that class is mostly walk in, read the board get the folders and have class. When the bell rings we leave. On certain days we come to school, mostly on a Sunday, about 2 or 3 times a year. After that we get a party if we were good in class. If you didn't show up that day, you don't get the party, and usually your grade drops to a F. In my opinion, I think we should have it held on Fridays and the kids should be able to pick some things we do in the class. This teacher should treat each class equal because sometimes it feels like he/she puts some students down. I'm not saying this teacher has to change his/her teaching ways, it's just he/she should give a "new way" a shot and maybe it will work out. If it doesn't he/she can go back to his/her way of teaching.

Student Blogging

We are going to try some student blogging starting in 2008! My name is Shaun Carey and I am the junior high science teacher at Payson Seymour High School. I am excited about this chance to get our kids working on some "now" technology. I feel that this is very important in today's educational system. Hopefully this will open some technology doors for Payson Seymour students. I have been blogging for about a year now and am anxious to see if my students get into it as much as I have. I have been making it a requirement that my students go onto my blog and comment once a month. It is for a grade and gets them familiar with the process.

If any educators read this that have done this in their classrooms I would appreciate any advice you have to offer. Thank you and I hope that our projects and discussions will be helpful to other students and teachers.

LET'S GET BLOGGING!
