R MPOFU
I am Ruben and my surname is Mpofu. I am from Pretoria. I chose to be a teacher because as it is known that teaching is the mother of all careers I want to take part in building children into discovering their purpose and abilities . As a foundation phase teacher my aim is to lay foundation of the children's journey in schooling and to instill good behavior and develop growing minds and promote skills that they will need which will determine which careers they will take in future. I want to be at the beginning of the initiative of creating responsible citizens and well performing learners.
I want to be a role model,change lives and educate and pass on knowledge to generations to come.

I learnt more about holistic development and the social,intellectual abilities. I learnt art integration with other subjects and its importance, the similarities between music and various subjects for example mathematics and how you can integrate them in a foundation phase class. It was interesting for me as future foundation phase teacher to know more about the significance of Music play in foundation phase class and what kind of activities can be done.
I now know that when it comes to lesson planning what to keep in mind especially lesson planning that involves music and art. I know more about three theories and what role they play in everyday teaching and learning. I also realized that everything I learnt here is building necessary skills that I am going to need in the classroom as a teacher once I am qualified
