I learned about being more responsible and that you have to take responsibility for your actions whatever you.

I also learnt that there are consequences for everything i do.

Respect for everyone and acceptance of people in general and how you need to think about what you are about to say and make sure it doesnt hurt the next person.

I also learnt that in life you may not feel that your parents know best but in actual fact they do and that they arent perfect but they do the best they can with what they have.

And also not to grow up too fast because you have plenty of time for that.Once childhood is gone you cant get it back.

Also the importance of budgeting and managing money and saving.

These are all the things i wish children would be taught in school because these are the things that build character and make them better human beings.

Just about everything. I either learned it YEARS before they taught to me in schools or FAR more detailed.

Some schools are teaching it now. The Santa Clarita school district, for example, has a complete video deparment that produces cable access TV shows. They also have a complete recording studio with Pro Tools.

You can’t teach visual astronomy in schools, because they work at night and that’s when you can see things. A virtual scope on a computer screen is not the same as moving an equitorial mounted telescope, lining up, focusing and seeing something like Saturn for the first time with your own eyes.

School has lots of short comings. They don’t teach creative writing with the goal of getting published. You want to learn that, you go to Learning Tree where a published author teaches you the tricks and essentials of what it takes to put together a good submission.

The problems with schools is most teachers never held a real job in their entire lives. They don’t teach from experience.

OK, so after teaching kids that have behavior problems I have noticed something. These kids have no interest in life or learning. They have a twisted view of what life is all about. They live with this incessant stereotypical view of people.

Once these kids leave school they go to the Job Center and that pretty much is their income for a few years. Or better yet, they get an apprenticeship (maybe) and eventually become someone they are proud of.

I think (if not wish) that these kids could get the skills they need for apprenticeships in school for a wide range of jobs out there. If education, in the strictest sense of the word, is really not for them (and education really isn’t for everyone) then why not teach them what they really need to know if they are to survive in the big bad world.

They need to know what it takes to be a carpenter, painter and decorator, a plumber, an electrician etc…

End of story.

Grade college must be committed to the three RRR’s! interpreting Writing and arithmatic! in the event that they could study and write and upload and subtract. muliply and divide, despatched them directly to junior severe college! Now prepare them a thank you to get a activity and save it, by making use of having a good artwork ethic! happen for artwork on time, and do your interest, and nor fool around! Then prepare the highschool pupils, a thank you to stay and overall performance as working adults! they should have the skill to stability a verify e book! Write a grocery checklist! prepare dinner nutrition that’s suitable for eating, and the thank you to bathe residing and do laundry! And proceed to exist a funds! they might do much greater suitable with this standards, fairly that how Napoleon misplaced at Waterloo, or who gained the a hundred years conflict! they could study that stuff later!

I think that a good teacher brings themselves to the job. Which means that all of your experiences and knowledge come with you and are a part of your teaching. I think that part of the teaching is that students see us as real people who are more than teachers. This helps them to become whole people.

handling finances: ie. credit cards, mortgages

raising children especially the first 5 years
