sho Sound advice straight from the horse's mouth Arlyn Kepo'o So you think a well-timed sob story, a sentimental Christmas card, and the old-stand-bv apple ' are going to save you from progress reports and academic probation? Guess again Berol- Mirado breath. We have here, from grades elementary to top-of-the hill, kept hermetically sealed in an old kim-chee jar and stored on Myron Arakawa's back porch, everything fyes everythingj you need to know about classroom SUCCESS. 42' By: Christine Goo, Sam Macloves, Bonnie Ishii, and Demetra Stephens, 5th and 6th grade teacher, is a great favorite with her students, she is thought of, in fact, as their best friend. Welcome to the 6th grade, I say each new September. To succeed in Room 212, here's a few things to remember: Have your homework in on time. Proofread your final copy. Dot your i's, cross your t's. Don't turn in anything sloppy. Always answer in a sentence, Not just no or yes. If your math is incomplete, Finish up at your recess. Don't borrow other's words, It's your work I want to read. Do your part in a group. But don't be 'fraid to lead. Please pick up the dictionary Without having to be told. Don't cough in anyone's face If returning with a cold. So let's not waste a minute. Let's get started right away. Try and be successful here, Each and every day. 1 r Robin Durnin, Elementary Division Math Lab teacher, has been instrumental in bring- ing computers to his campus. Robin is also the IV Water Polo coach. When asked by a student from KNA to write a short essay about teaching, I was struck by the fact that the tables were turned. The teacher, in this case me, had a deadline to meet and no notion of what to focus on Qsound familiar?J. This student-like situation began a line of thought which centers on similarities between teacher and student. All in all, teaching is not much different from being a student. If one enjoys learn- ing, communication, and involvement, being an educator is worth all the irritations and annoyances that everyone encounters in the classroom. Or simply stated: as I liked being a student, so do I like being a teacher. In short, if you can answer the question, What do you like in a good teacher? you will have a pretty good answer to the question, How can I be a better student?
