Rebekah Stopford

It’s the final week of what Teachers and Principals are calling the longest term in school history in most parts of Australia. Makes it a really good time to say say thanks and to show some love. I’ve never seen them needing it more. Please just do it.

I started my casual day with 20 questions for Miss Stopford, because I have this stage 2 class again tomorrow. I received this after recess, using most my answers. Very excited to have them again tomorrow! #acuedu_p

First day of casual teaching, and I'm back in my last prac class. They were so excited to see me again, it's a perfect way to start my teaching career. #acuedu_p

Equity is more important then equality. #acuedu_p

I can't believe that's all my assignments submitted now! 😅 #acuedu_p

I love that when I finished up my prac last term, all the art work in the classroom were created in my lessons. Art was the subject I was least confident in, but I was really able to grow in the lessons I delivered #acuedu_p

First day of term 4, and though I'm not casual teaching yet its nice an SLSO day back in the unit if my prac school. #acuedu_p

The importance of Creativity in the classroom #acuedu_p

How blessed I am to have had these wonderful women to challenge, support, encourage and inspire me through the four years of our degree! It’s sad to think that our ACU journey is almost over, but extremely exciting that our teaching careers are just beginning ✨👩🏻‍🏫 #acuedu_p

Loved listening to such experienced teachers today at Ready Steady Teach! So much wisdom and great advice to take on board when starting the next chapter! #acuedu_p

Such a clever activity! #acuedu_p

Finished prac and finally having the time to sit down to focus on the GTPA 🎉👍🏼 #acuedu_p

Who would of thought an art lesson for my final supervisor's vist could of gone so successful? The students developed their fine motor skills, making paper flowers to match their spring acrostic poems. Thanks @Davo452 for sitting in on my lessons this prac. #acuedu_p

35 days ✔ After reflecting on it all I remember back to my first placement. The same school, the same room, on kindergarten too. I never would of imagined I could survive in Kindy. Now as I finish placement I am a confident teacher eager for any teaching oppounties. #acuedu_p

On the floor for a writing lesson I went through the instructions at least 5 times. When I sent my first student back to her desk the first words were "but what are we doing?" Lesson learnt: don't do complicated tasks in Kindy after lunch. #acuedu_p

I swear in Kindy it's much more questions then that! 😂 #acuedu_p

This morning I hung up all my spring vases artwork. Made from mosaic vases and fork tulips. The kindys loved these lessons. #acuedu_p

Day 24/35: R U OK? Asking this question to your friends, family or even work colleagues is a great way to start a conversation that could potentially change their life. So let’s reach out to each other. Ask the question!💛🖤 Here’s a good read for my teacher friends⬇️ #ACUedu_p

Positive language from teachers really make a difference in our students #acuedu_p

And art lessons are always a challenge even with modelling😂 #acuedu_p
