Reflection 9 : Immigration


As a teacher, immigration and education should impact you as a teacher. Simply, because you’re just not a teacher in this day in age, you're a supporter. Sometimes there are children who are going through a lot at home and that affects the way they act at school. That's one reason why it is so important to get to know your students, and who they are as a person. Not only to be nosey, but to have a better understanding from the child's point of view. Today I learned that some kids that are about to graduate high school are just now finding out that they are undocumented, which means their illegal. That's really not fair because, the illegal student been here almost all their life and they been working so hard in school. Then they have all this opportunities in front of them, but they can't even take advantage of that because they are undocumented.
