Class Size
November 2 2019 |
Class
size is vital to success in the classroom.
My experience is the larger the number
students the harder it became for me to stay
on task and for the students to concentrate
on their assignments. The quality of
instruction always declined and I could see
frustration in new and some experienced
teachers to fulfill their jobs. Often the
new and experienced teachers would not renew
their contracts and in some cases beginning
teachers would not complete their first
year. Increasing class size is often the
result of poor
funding, bad management and
inexperienced administrators.
