Wong # 2: First Day Last


“It is the teacher who makes the difference in the classroom” This statement had struck me the most in the Part 2 of Dr. Wong’s lecture about The First Days of School. As a person, I am well aware that stealing is a crime, but after watching this video and as an aspiring teacher, I am willing to commit the crime of stealing and I encourage novice and even veteran teachers to do it too. From what I’ve learned in this lecture would help me make a difference not just in my class, but most importantly, in the lives of my students. As what Dr. Wong said, “Please steal, please take the ideas and take it back to your classroom and use them”. I will do it, I will make things right, from the very first minute of my future career as a teacher. I will implement what I’ve learned from this video, because I know that the success of an academic year will depend on the success of the first day of class. Therefore, as the saying goes, first impression last, so is the first day of class.
