The teacher has all the moods of life. They are joyful, sorrowful and glorious mysteries as he enters the path of this hard noble’s profession. Before a teacher enters her classroom, he has given much attention on how to execute her lessons for the day. Materials whether visual or audio-visual aids were already set up to facilitate the day’s discussions. Almost always hours were spent to prepare including the board work and evaluation at the end of the lessons. This is daily routine of a teacher. And with every grading period comes the computation of the pupil’s achievement. A teacher’s daily routine may sound boring to some especially for those who do not love the teaching. Yet, if you love to learn and share what you have learned, it will be easier for you. In the beginning of the career you will find hesitations, anxieties and apprehensions. But just let it go and put your heart and mind that you have loved to teach and you like the professions. The one day in your golden years, you will not regret what you have done . You’re your former pupils will greet you and say hello. In addition, he will continue say. “I remember you being a teacher in Grade 1. You taught me how to read and write. Now, I’m a successful doctor.” He will then invite you and say when you need help regarding your health my clinic is open to welcome you, “or” Should you have legal problems may see me in my law office.” This is the wonder of the teaching profession. As a teacher moves on, her experiences joy in the achievement of his pupils and sorrows anything not so good come along the way.
Nearly all students do not support school uniforms; however they do not know the benefits in wearing them. However, does wearing school uniforms really give pupils a sense of identity and encourages good discipline? Schools keep emphasizing that uniforms is a must to maintain students behavior. Is this really true?First of all, school uniforms create an atmosphere where students will be able to share their thoughts because students around them would be wearing the same clothing. This would limit distractions in the classroom, producing a better teaching and learning zone. Revealing clothes would be banished and females will be much more discipline.
Secondly, school uniforms ensure that every student is equal. No bullying of poorer students would occur. Also, students are unable to pressure their friends for wearing cheap clothes. Schools limit bullying and peer pressure, making schools a safe and conducive environment for productive learning.
Thirdly, schools attendance could be controlled slightly with the help of uniforms. When policemen caught students loitering around the neighborhood, the policemen would escort the students to their respective schools. Disciplinary actions would be taken if students are being caught. Hence, this would allow students to reach school on time for lessons.
Fourthly, students would feel that they belong to somewhere. Also, they would not act outrageous when they are wearing their uniforms. The sense of belonging to the school will encourage them to act smartly in public places. Representing their schools, they have to behave themselves and not become a public nuisance.
Lastly, since schools have each of their unique uniforms, students could be easily identified by school officials. Having this sense of identity, it helps school officials recognize intruders and take certain precautions. Schools would be a peace place to be in.
