Elementary Education Research Paper

There is a large variety of reasons I decided to go into elementary education. However, my enjoyment working with children and my want to help others were at the forefront of my decision. I love the energy and enthusiasm in young students and love to help them learn. Teaching allows me to make a positive impact on the lives of a huge number of students. My own life has been substantially impacted by caring teachers and I want to have that influence on others. I thinking teaching is exactly where I need to be to make the most impact on children. My future classroom goal is to tying my care for students into excellent science teaching. From my experiences and my own skills I have been able to establish a personal philosophy of teaching science based on relationships.
My science teaching methodology reflects that belief. It is very important to me to focus on relationship based teaching. I want my students to feel relaxed being themselves. I want them to be comfortable exploring and engaging when learning science. I have found that learning cannot really take place until a student feels safe and cared for. When teaching science there are sensitive subjects and concepts that are challenging to comprehend. Building a strong foundational relationship with my students will help them to feel comfortable and develop a trusting connection with me, allowing more learning to occur. My empathetic nature and desire to help all my students will help me to form these strong and lasting relationships. The students will see the effort I put in for them and will reciprocate that with hard work of their own. Building strong relationships with my students will allow me to maximize the science learning and instruction in my future
