Okay, I am a teacher. I have my credentials and I have paid my dues, but I do not teach. Mostly it is because I found out about the Asperger's in the last months of Teacher's College and I went through a period of self doubt. Understandably.

I have all these plans for when I am a teacher.

Teach holistically. That is don't teach math, science, history and geography as separate things; integrate them into one subject and teach them all together.

Teach them to write boldly but respectfully. ( this one came to me this morning). If they can define it they can use it. If they want to use swear words or inappropriate language for a school, they should have to define it and defend the usage and it's context, they can use it. Like the never broadcast TV commercial for poverty. "I am hungry," while a statement has no teeth and would illicit no response from a viewing public, but, "Fuck, I am hungry," would, but would not be allowed to play on polite society TV. If a kid used a word correctly in litterature or in a class activity performance that is fine, in the classroom and out of the classroom in polite society, not acceptable.

I would teach them to write interestingly, creatively, use adjectives, adverbs, dictionaries and thesauruses.

I will use technology seemlessly in the classroom, because technology is not the focus.

Integration of the classroom auditory and visual clues with at least three or four of the intelligences present, particularly kinesthetic.
