I had never seen
the Kid President video until today. I found it to be the cutest, sweetest
video but also incredibly inspiring and touching. Hearing this small child
speak about making a difference actually made me stop and think what my “space
jam” will be. It made me think about what I want to do that children and adults
alike will look up to and aspire to be one day.
As
I am an elementary education major I want my impact to be within the classroom.
My goal is to be the teacher that changes student’s opinions on school and
learning in a positive way. The teacher that inspired me to pursue a career in
education left a lasting impression on me. She was compassionate, enthusiastic
about her job, and cared deeply for her students. I also want to change the
lives of young students and inspire them to work hard and reach their full
potential. I want to create a learning environment that will lead to the future
leaders of our nation. I want to create a classroom full of future CEOs,
doctors, and politicians that will lead our country in a positive direction in
the next generation.
I
believe one aspect lacking in education is a focus on community building and
helping others. Teachers get so caught up in assuring academic success that
sometimes giving back to the community takes the way side. I want my classroom
to not only focus on growing academically but also growing as good stewards of the
community.
I hope that my
space jam is the children I will help reach their full potential as not only
academic students but also as compassionate, helpful citizens.
