During my time in the classroom, I have learned so much that goes into being a teacher. The respect I have gained is bounds beyond what I thought I would take away from the class. I think the teacher makes an important role in a students life, because they are bringing new information to the student. The teacher is the person they spend most of their day with, they see them every single day shortly after they wake up, and they are basically staring at them for the majority of the time they are in class. My graphic organizer allowed me to see the variety of roles that a teacher has. I didn't think there was one role that was more important than the other for particular reasons. They all make an impact on the students and you can grow together as a class.
Considering the Roles I found to stand out, I will define those specifically. Being a friend to the students is important, because in return you gain the roles as a confident with them as well. They trust you, and are not afraid to come to you for anything, and look forward to coming to class. The term "cheerleader" is something that I know was important to me when I was in grade school. It showed me that my teacher cared about me in and out of the classroom. Attending my students school plays, dance performances, choir/band/orchestra concerts, that will be a priority to me. I have a long road ahead of me and making sure every role as a teacher, is every way that I can be defined as a teacher by everyone around me.
