Friday’s Social

Club Teach would like to thank everyone who came and donated, and or placed IOU’s for the book drive. We collected a good 30+ books for the Phoenix Children’s Hospital, with the promise for more in the coming weeks. Just a reminder for those who want to drop off books for the future. There will be collecting bins in:

• The Welcome Center
• WAC building
• LA Building
• and Kids Care Center

What some of our members have to say about how the social went

Adrian:  I think it went well considering we got started late on account of myself. Aside from advertising and timing I say we did a wonderful job. Timing on my part, promotion as a whole.

Amy:  I thought it went really good.

Arnold:  I felt the social went very well.  The SMCC students, staff, faculty, and so forth were more than willing to donate books when they found out where the books were going.  Great exposure for the club, and the community will begin to know what the club stands for.  Great job!

Tricia: Today's social had some great results. Some people actually came back after buying books from the bookstore. Hey we are thankful, glad we are helping out the kids at Phoenix Children's Hospital! side note: I broke my sunglasses...but who cares!?

Our question is: What are your thoughts on Club Teach and our social? Any Comments or Recommendations? Leave a comment below.

Club Teach Wants to be more Community Based

Students have more than one teacher, well obviously. In life, we have more than one teacher besides the titles teacher. Adrian was asked recently to describe a teacher in one sentence. He said that was impossible. There are all types of teachers everywhere! Dr. A said that:

"a teacher as a “facilitator of knowledge” A teacher facilitates knowledge in her/his classroom. We all learn in different ways and from different sources. Teachers learn from their students, students learn from other students, from their teachers and the variety of resources available. Teachers facilitate this knowledge flow."

In addition, think of what you learn everyday and then about those people that taught you that. Those people are teachers. Anyone that teaches is a teacher essentially. Parents are our teachers, one of our first teacher's when we come into this world, and it is important that they be a part of the learning process, and that the community be involved too.
