There is a lot of controversy around whether or not teachers should be allowed to wear jeans, but I think jeans should be a part of the teacher dress code, and here is why.
Jeans say I'm dressed to work, not just for work.
It's hard to sit down on the carpet and read a book with your kids while you're wearing a skirt. I can't lean over a desk to help a student in a classroom full of teenagers if I'm concerned about where my skirt ends up when I'm bent over. . I can work in jeans: I can move, sit, stand, or kneel without worry.
.
What's the key to being an excellent teacher? Great relationships with your students. Dressed clothes say I'm your boss, but jeans say I'm with you. In my classroom, I am a facilitator, a coach and a mentor. .
Teachers who wear jeans are happier.
"Happy teacher, happy class" seems like a good saying. . When you're comfortable, you're happy. When you're happy, you're a better teacher. And when you're a better teacher, your students learn more. Who isn't happy when they're wearing their favorite pair of comfy jeans?
Teachers today don't just stand up in front and lecture anymore. Being comfortable means being able to move, to bend down to help students, or to sit on the floor to help a kid organize their backpack full of papers.
I work in a school where teachers wear jeans regularly, but we don't look like a slovely (不整洁的) group of people, nor are our students suffering because of our casual clothes. Most of the arguments against wearing jeans claim that if teachers want to be treated like professionals, they should look like professionals, but I'd argue that there is no longer a blanket look for professionals.
A. Jeans solve these problems
B. Wearing jeans helps build relationships
C. Teachers and students feel energetic wearing jeans
D. Jeans allow teachers to be more mobile and hands-on
E. Jeans help teachers do their jobs at the highest possible level
F. After all, the teacher's mood usually sets the tone for the day
G. Jeans allow me to fill those roles more easily and comfortably
