Many People do not ever think about how the amount of students per
classroom could take a toll on the student’s education. The question, Do Class
Sizes Affect Students Education is an important question because it is important
to figure out if this is a problem or not so that school district decision
makers can make the right choice to make classes smaller or to keep them the
way they are. This question would be important for many readers from parents,
grandparents, taxpayers, and even future parents. This question is important to
me because I am going to school to become a teacher and I want to make sure
that all my students get the most out of what I teach them, and I do not want
the my class size being the reason my students do not succeed in their
education. Along with this question I would like to answer many other like, what
is a good amount of students per classroom? What kind of difficulties teachers
deal with having large classroom sizes? And what us as taxpayers can do to make
sure those children are in classrooms with the right amount of students to have
a successful learning experience? I believe that class sizes do affect a student’s
education because when there are 30+ kids in a classroom how is it possible for
one teacher to make sure that all their students understand the material? One
of the main reasons I decided to go to Front Range right out of high school and
not a big university is because I didn't think I would do well in my classes if
they had 100+ students in them. I have found through out the years that I learn
better in a small classroom setting because I ask many questions and like my
instructors to know me by name. I plan on finding answers for this topic
through data bases like the Colorado department of education and center for
public education.
