As an educator there are standards that I must practice in order to be able to teach in the classroom. These standards are important as they have the children in the best interest. These standards are:

  1. Educators value the success of all students. As a teacher I will be responsible for my students physical and emotional safety. I will do whatever it takes to make sure that my students feel safe and successful in my classroom.
  2.  Educators act ethically and maintain the integrity, credibility, and reputation of the profession.  As an educator I will always be a role model in the classroom, and outside of the school as well.
  3.  Educators understand and apply knowledge of student growth and development. I will implement strategies that support all the learners needs in my classroom. I will look at worldviews and cultural identity to make decisions on what to teach.
  4.  Educators value the involvement of family and community. I will always consider the thoughts and opinions of guardians.
  5. Educators implement planning, instruction, assessment, and reporting practices. I will make sure that my students have a well rounded education and have many options throughout their learning and assessment.
  6. Educators demonstrate a broad knowledge base and understanding of areas they teach. I will teach my students from a Canadian, global, and First nations perspective.
  7. Educators engage in professional learning. I will reflect during my teaching practice to ensure that I am supporting the needs of all my students.
  8. Educators contribute to the profession. I will work with and help other teachers to offer them my support during my teaching practice.
  9. Educators respect and value the history of the First Nations, and contribute to the truth and reconciliation  and healing. I will examine my beliefs to ensure change, and I will integrate First Nations perspectives and worldviews in my teaching practice.

By applying all of these standards to my teaching practice, I will have a classroom that is set up to help all of my students needs to become successful learners.
