My vision for language arts educators is that they are intensely equipped with the skills and tools that they need for teaching the children of tomorrow. Included in this is the ability to truly see, and meet the needs of each and every student. That these teachers are able to look at their students and imagine levels of support that are in direct response to what each student needs.In addition, my vision for language arts educators is that they maintain a burning desire to be active learners who continually look to educate themselves. Teachers of reading and writing should be that- readers and writers, so that they can speak to students in authentic and effective ways. Life-long learning is at the heart of true teacher of language arts.
Lastly, my vision for language arts teachers is that they continually strive to create an environment that motivates and engages students to pursue interests, passions and ideas inside of reading and writing- an environment that respects each individual and leads them to their highest potential- an environment that builds the individual independently and builds the community collaboratively.
