The new BC curriculum focuses on three core competencies: communication, thinking and personal and social. I plan on implementing these into my future classroom in varies ways such as:

Communication

Both communicating and collaborating in the classroom are vital parts of education. I believe group work is essential in the classroom so students can share ideas and exchange perspectives on various content so I will implement assignments that will focus on collaboration.

Thinking

Creative, reflective and critical thinking are both focused on in the new curriculum. I plan on implementing both peer and self-reflection on various assignments to allow students to understand who they are as learners and to see how their peers interpret assignments. I plan on implementing real-life connections into the classroom for students to reflect critically on in order to become active, engaged and responsible citizens.

Personal

Personal and social awareness and responsibility and positive personal and cultural identity are also focused on in the curriculum. I plan on implementing these concepts into my future classrooms by creating assignments that help students understand and become aware of the factors that contribute to a healthy self and a successful community. I also plan on encouraging my students to be socially aware by bringing in current issues for the students to discuss and critically analyze.
