Stronge’s Qualities of Effective Educator (TIU3)
The Effective Teacher as a person…
Additional Notes:
What do your core values mean to you?
Kindness to me means that you respect others, and don't say rude, or derogatory comments to
them. It's having a basic sense of awareness of how your words and actions can affect someone else.
For me, kindness is the beginning value that leads to others such as integrity, honesty and
professionalism. Curiosity to me means that one is engaged with the material at hand, and wants to
learn more about the reasoning behind the concepts. Having curiosity is an invaluable trait that one
doesn't have to be born with. As an educator, my goal would be to foster curiosity in all of my
students.
I derived these core values by narrowing down my list of longer values before finally settling on
kindness and curiosity. Although it was difficult to choose, I believe that a combination of being kind
to others and curious about the world can open doors for you and allow you to develop and foster
additional values.
I landed on the two core values of Kindness and Curiosity because I believe that those are two traits
that are essential for student's in education. In my personal life, I've learned that it's far easier and
more productive to be kind to others. Typically, kindness is reciprocated with kindness in turn - and
if it's not - at least you tried your best. In terms of curiosity, I believe that asking questions is the
best way to learn and master a subject. Rote memorization can provide you with the knowledge
temporarily, but genuine curiosity will lead to a more enriching, life-long pursuit of knowledge.

Howard Gardner – learners can measure their knowledge in the form of an IQ. Another theory is
Multiple Intelligences – which states that there are many types of intelligence
Jerome Bruner – idea of learning by discovery (past experience to discover new truths) states that
a theory of instruction should address four aspects 1. Predisposition towards learning 2. The ways
knowledge can be structured for the learner to grasp easily 3. The most effective sequences to

Components of a social emotional learning program (SS12)
1. Self-Awareness (be able to identify their emotions, being aware of their own body space, reflective; conflict mediation;
journaling; having them see their own impact on the world)
2. Self-Management (breathing exercise, counting to 5)
3. Social-Awareness (Empathy, service-learning projects, role playing)
4. Responsible Decision Making (Considering the well-being of self and others; evaluating the consequences; shared
agreements; 1 to 1 problem solving; having students debate an issue)
5. Relationship Skills (Ability to work cooperatively/resolve conflict, cooperative groups)

2. I got this question correct as well, but on question 5 I can imagine students might have chosen “With Anxiety” in regard to the
meaning of “wistfully.” I imagine that the student may be imagining themselves in the situation and how they might feel
anxious. They would have not been considering the context clues within the paragraph.
3. For question 5, I imagine a student might have incorrectly guessed the wrong answer by not fully comprehending the text. For
instance, they may have chosen the answer that Eric has learned working in the deli is more fun than being with friends,
because they mistake Eric’s main conflict with his actions at the end. They probably were not taking into consideration the
lesson Eric learned.
Reflections on the Math STAAR (TL4)
1. I got this question correct, but for number 5 on the math assessment, a student might have gotten confused with how to
interpret the number line. They may have incorrectly counted the coinciding points, and have gotten a different answer than
Line B.
2. For question 2, I imagine the student might have chosen the wrong answer because they didn’t understand the definition of an
absolute value.
3. For question 1, I imagine the student might have ignored the (-) signs in the expression and miscalculated 5(-6) + (-7) to be 30-
7 = 23 which would be an incorrect answer.

2. I will promote higher order thinking by activating prior knowledge before reading a text and asking students to draw
connections to their own life. I will develop lessons that include activities that promote higher order thinking such as graphic
organizers, concept maps, Venn diagrams, and retelling strategies.
3. I will utilize comprehension strategies such as “think alouds,” anticipation guides, summarizing/notetaking, and cooperative
grouping to increase reading comprehension within my students and create a positive classroom environment.
