An Introduction

Hey my name is Herbert Smith but I go by Herb. My interests are, being around family and friends; I enjoy watching television and watching movies. I love to be outside and watch how the world works. I have been working with children for about 10 years, doing summer camps, after school program and day care.  I have many hobbies, but I’ll just name a few. I take pride in going to church for the fellowship and spiritual growth. Next, I enjoy playing basketball and football; I go to the recreation center six days a week to work out. Lastly, I appreciate long drives and seeing things that I have never seen before to add to my bucket list.  My certification area will be All-Level Special Education. I was driven to Special Education while working with kids as I grew up. I have a lot of patience when it comes to working with people who need a little help in life. Seeing their smiling faces after you have just taught them something new that they have never seen before is amazing. There are some students that I will be working with who can’t use the technology because of their disabilities. I will try my best to accommodate each students needs, so that no one is left out of using the technology in my classroom. In this picture I was on my way to church, because I woke up in a great mood, I decided to dress up today.

I love that school are putting technology into to schools. With having old school folks growing up my people did not believe in technology so the only way I would get to see one is if I went to a store or over a friend house. In middle school because the TAKs scores were so low they gave the entire 7^th grade little laptops to work on reading and math. Giving the student who is not privilege to have the nice thing is great. Because of that I would make sure that I do the same because a student would not tell you because they’re afraid to be embarrassed.

I love the way technology allows students to express their ideas in creative ways, whether in writing, images, or sounds, and can help to push them to a deeper understanding of concepts. If a student has any question and there is no one to help technology is the way to go. I feel that the newer generation have it the worst because everyone is getting lazy because of the new technology has unable a lot of Americans. In time we are going to pull up to a fast food place and there would be no human’s worker there because of the new technology, the same apply to teaching because of all the teaching programs out.
