"listen and learn", "smile and nod"These are good phrases to remember. If you have been in this classroom 2 days I might suggest you repeat the above phrases to yourself several times. I think it would be highly inappropriate | for you to offer your advice at this stage of your practicum. When you take over morning message you may do it the way you so desire. In the meantime --- "listen and learn". Although your concern for the children not learning incorrect grammar is well-intentioned, your role in the classroom is as a student teacher. We pay principals and vice-principals additional salaries for | |
their roles of added responsibility --- it is their job to evaluate this teacher and the programme.Your relationship with the co-operating teacher is not a reciprocal one. Your are not team members / teaching partners. You are a very much appreciated and welcomed guest in the class, enjoy your time, but remember to "listen and learn", "smile and nod"
