Lehua's Comment on Tara's Ch. 7 Blog!

Hey Tara!

I totally agree with you on the whole "my kids aren't really reading this semester" thing. I'm sure they're not for the same reasons but I know that it is difficult - especially when we are required to do certain things for our classes. It was even hard for me to fit in a math lesson because in kindergarten, these children didn't focus on it that much. So I completely see where you're coming from. However, it is a great challenge for us as teacher candidates to try to incorporate lessons into their daily routine that is probably very robotic by now. It seems as if, according to Neil esp., that teachers need to do more to ensure quality learning in the classroom. Or, to be more blunt, "I don't know why you Americans do it that way!" It's so confusing! - Australian accent added.
