Ron Clark is a world renowned educator. I would love to be able to visit his school and learn strategies from him for teaching ELA. I have already started implementing some of his strategies in my classroom and I would eventually like to influence a revolution throughout my school. Schoolwide initiatives are my ultimate goals to cause waves in education. The school I teach in has the capacity to implement amazing initiatives. This training can help inspire ideas that would completely revolutionize how we teach students. Although I am starting small, just in my classroom, I would like to use this training to help other teachers. RCA focuses on rigor with high student engagement through movement, dance, song and leadership. I would love for my school to implement these same strategies.
