creating cultural revelant education

After watching this video i was not only able to relate to some of things that was said but also got a better understanding of other students perspectives.  There is nothing more important to a student then having a connection with teachers. Being able to have a teacher that not only knows your name but can also connect and guide you. This allows for a student to feel more comfortable and to trust the teachers you have. One of the girls also mentioned how she wished for a teacher to be a mentor type person as well as a teacher.  If a teacher makes these connections the will bettter be able to accommodate and work in the best way for the student. There was also a boy in the video who brought up a good point about instead of just sending your student to the office or kicking them out instead learn the reason they may be acting out. We also need to make sure parents have connections with the teachers. This play a huge role for the student. Parents need this connection in order to be able to know how to help their child in school.  Overall it is important to get to know each student individual so that you can best work in order to beneifit them .
