Critical Voice

When I read the article about teachers having a critical voice I found it very intriguing. It is so important that teachers learn to have a critical voice!! As teachers we are expected to follow the guidelines and the curriculum  that schools late out for us, but I also think it is important that if we have an issue with something that we make is known. Schools just lay out outlines and guidelines they think are good for all to follow, however, teachers are the ones who know their students and know how they learn. So it is important for them to voice a concern if they see a student is having an issue with something we are told to do. As a teacher I want to advocate for my students, it is my responsibility to teach each and every child and sometimes you just have to throw the rule book out the window!
