The Future of Teachers in Texas

In response to Mrs. Stevens' blog,

In reflection to the article from Texas Monthly, 

I'm not really sure if I like the idea of there being so many job openings available in the future for teachers. That partly means that there are more and more people that are just not wanting to succeed in an education career. Not to say that I want to control the career paths people are to choose, but there are students who need teachers as their role models, guiders, etc. 

In reflection to the Great Teachers: Great Texas article, 

I personally agree with the six common sense reforms. They all seem to make sense for the needs of teachers now-a-days. Wendy Davis seems like a great person to understand the "requirements" or "recommendations" of what qualities teachers should have. I love how she is so dedicated to wanting Texas to succeed with careers in education. She is a slight role model to me.

My Year Ahead

In response to Mrs. Stevens Blog,

1. I want to focus more during the second semester. In order for me to be able to focus more during school, I will need to put forth the effort to be interested in the subjects that I am learning. I will also start to focus less on my phone during school, so that I can focus better. After I start focusing better, I will then be able to receive better grades in my classes.

2. I want to be able to make better grades during the second semester. In order for me to make better grades, I will need to try to study better and not focus so much on the things that are happening at home while I am studying. If I am able to make better grades, then I will have a better chance at making my GPA better and getting an easier chance at getting into college.

3. I want to be able to try and study more. In order for me to accomplish this, I will need to get motivated to study. In order for me to be motivated to study, I need to WANT to have better grades, and get a higher GPA. If i succeed at studying more often, then I will be able to gain better grades during school, and receive a better GPA!
