What you can do for your student this week!

Add to Technorati FavoritesI am out Monday....but the show must still go on! The students will be exposed for the first time to new words that have to do with what they might see on a job application. Yes, these are vocabulary words that we will use in many different ways this week! Practice this week getting your child to know these words and the basic information that goes along with the information! It is a must for their success in the world outside of the home and the school! Here are some of the words~
  1. Social Security
  2. Birth Date
  3. Address
  4. First, Last and Middle Name
  5. School
  6. Phone
  7. Reference
  8. Training
  9. Experience
  10. Email
  11. Hours Available
  12. Hobbies
  13. Skills
  14. Who to call in case of an emergency

Our job is to not only give knowledge and help with the obtaining of knowledge but to help the students to be able to have the best opportunity possible to be a productive citizen after their school days...to do this we can not just teach words, and concepts that are "nice to know" but we strive to teach things that can be used in daily life situations! With your help that can become a reality...by ourself we can not accomplish all that needs to be taught but as a team we can see the needs of each student met!

What makes this blog worth your time?

"Providing Opportunities" is a blog that will be worth your while to browse at least once a week for ideas that might work for you as you seek to better the world for the youth of t0day. As you check this blog you will find out information about this class that will inspire you, inform you and may give you ideas. This blog will be different in that if ideas are given as as a post and they seem to warrant letting others know about them then they will be posted with credit given for the source. Stephen Covey the famous author stressed the idea of "synergy" and those accomplishing more together than working seperately. This blog can accomplish synergy which provides a resource which Dr. Harry Wong states is the best way for any teacher to learn which is to "steal ideas" from other teachers and use them. "Providing Opportunities" can only work if others will submit their ideas that they have either used or seen used that worked.
