Teachers Advisories- A Proposal for Change

Abstract:

This chapter focused on having Advisors in middle school. The advisors would have an average of 10-15 advisees assigned to them. They suggested times such as 3-4 times a year you have an advisor/ advisee lunch to go over classes and life. Also, Advisory days were suggested where there are no classes just service activities, physical activities, reflections, or social activities planned for the day.
Reflection:
I think that advisors to just touch base would be a good thing for middle level students. I think that it would be a great way for them to just have someone to talk to about how everything is going. We did not have advisors at the middle school level in my middle school. When we got to high school we had guidance counselors and I had a case manager that I met with. I think that getting the kids out of the classroom is a Wonderful Idea!
