Week 5, Question 1: Name 3 specific strategies or accommodations a regular classroom teacher could make to meet the learning needs of an ESL/ELL student in his/her classroom. Explain how to use each strategy and the rationale for its appropriateness. Strategy #1: Use Visuals. For strategy 1 the use of visuals will allow ESL learners to understand the material that is being taught.…
Positive psychology generally is a good thing. But at the same time people have to be truthful about themselves. Richard is very positive, but he ignores the reality of the situation he is in. He is an antagonist not because he’s a bad person, but because he undermines the family’s happiness and many times ends up causing more problems. Richard believes that his book will be successful and focuses way too much on that.…
The theories are used extensively throughout the classroom to help with behavior management, self-efficacy, and learning. Albert Bandura’s self-efficacy can be implemented in a classroom setting. Teachers must scaffold students ability to set goals for themselves that lead to an overall objective. Each time a student finishes a goal, he or she will gain confidence in their ability to be successful in academics. As a teacher builds students’ self efficacy, they are more able to overcome personal obstacles in their lives.…
The INCLUDE strategy is a great place to start. I think it really analyzes the needs of all students, especially those that need extra help. I do agree with the way this method is laid out. However, I feel that this is something that should be done anyways. For students that need accommodations and for the classroom in general.…
A.H., Brown, M. P., Corrigan, W. M., 2013). This evidence based approach will improve aptitudes and attitudes essential to higher achievement focusing on the whole child, creating safe and socially and emmotioonally supportive climates, and engaging parents and the community (Alessandro, et al., 2013). This model promotes voluntary behavior intended to benefit another. According to a study done by Kincaid, D., Childs, K., Blasé, K. A., & Wallace, F. (2007), such an approach gives students specific behavior skills, provides opportunity to practice skills in a natural school environment, and reinforces students positively for displaying these skills in the classroom setting. Lacy Elementary has lacked respect amongst students as mentioned before and this could help in taking a proactive step for the betterment of the schools culture to promote a better classroom environment.…
1. Why is it important for educators to know about systematic learner variability? It is important for educators to know about systematic learner variability because the concept of the "Illusory Average Student" does not exist; "cognitive neurosceince has shown that there is no average student" (DL Series No. 1, 2012). Therefore, it is important for educators to know that student ability varies widely both within and between subjects and concepts for students, and even more importantly, that this variability is normal (DL Series No. 1, 2012). Finally, once you learn about learner variability you can begin to think systematically about learner variability, and from there you can begin to predict for this variability in your lesson plans…
Introduction Mathematics is a constantly changing world that develops and makes new advances every day that produces new problems to solve and new knowledge to build on (Dole, 2013). Therefore it is important for teachers to deliver authentic learning tasks that provide students with real world influences and allow students to not be overwhelmed by the concept of mathematics but actually relish and understand the process. This is done by getting to know students and their individual learning styles and providing lessons that are relatable, interesting and enjoyable by incorporating pedagogical practices and differentiation techniques with the Australian curriculum and positive behaviour management strategies. These are the processes and strategies…
To accomplish their end, an excuse was needed. CIA and its allies thought out manifold crusades in the form of taking away Muslims’ living and at the same time their extermination by military stratagems. They practiced self-destruction and blamed a Bin Laden for exploding their twin towers. The modern American politicians and mammonists then trumpeted that they had been attacked by Muslims, thus arousing the emotion of beguiled American chauvinists to counter.…
U2 AC 1.2 - Compare the strengths and limitations of teaching and learning approaches used in own area of specialism in relation to meeting individual learner needs. My area of education is driving instruction for cars, meaning I teach people to drive a car to the DSA (Driving Standards Agency) driving test standard. One of the strengths of this type of tuition is that it is specialised or dedicated one to one which is very good for the type of learners I attract. Older people and people with special needs require this type of tuition because it is focused on one thing at a time and once learned it is easy to re-enforce by moving on to the next stage of learning.…
ABA interventions/treatments For the purpose of the research, we will be looking at three different forms of treatments that have been studied to show that they are not only useful in teaching behavioral skills but also can be used in academic development. 1. Early Intensive Behavioral Intervention (EIBI)…
Early interventions are an exceedingly crucial component to the education of students who have been identified as having a developmental delay. Three developmental areas are significant to know the characteristics and strategies to implement when working with students with cognitive, social-emotional, and adaptive behavior delays. These three areas can be can be harder to identify compared to a child who has delays in speech or gross motor. Cognition is difficult to describe.…
Constructive pedagogical practices are considered to encourage an effective classroom, where teachers and students work together to achieve their learning goals. Constructivism theory is basically depending on observation and scientific study of learning patterns of learners. Piaget’s cognitive and Vygotsky’s social constructivism are two dominant types of constructivism in the classroom. Both theories suggest useful teaching methods and learner-directed concepts based on purposeful and relevant knowledge, such as encouraging students to use effective strategies i.e. experiments, real-world problem solving, reflection and discussion about their learning experience and assess their understanding. The constructivist teachers ensure they understand…
Students face various social and emotional challenges as they develop and interact with the world around them. Their ability to control their emotions and reactions is dependent on their level of development, surrounding environment, and the skills they have been taught, modeled, and practiced that deal with social and emotional factors (Ed Psych, p 70). During my field experience in my 3rd grade classroom at S.H. Elementary, I have observed Mrs. Branson establish relationships and provide students with the necessary skills needed to develop their emotional competencies. Mrs. Branson teaches 3rd grade in a charter school located in the south suburbs of Minneapolis. Her class consist of 23 diverse student learners from various racial, ethical,…
I currently work as an Interventionist. I provide small group interventions to at risk elementary students. The teacher leadership program has added purpose to my profession as an educator. I’ve learned to use data and records on students as powerful resources to plan effective lessons. Data lets me learn strengthens and weaknesses of the students.…
‘Many teachers use the “one size fits all” approach where all students receive the same instruction irrespective of their specific needs; however…this style of teaching benefits only a few students’ (Cavanagh & Prescott, 2015. P.150). This assignment will agree that using a one size fits all approach to teaching will only benefit a few students. Embracing classroom inclusiveness, differentiation and the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers (APSTs) will guide us as teachers to appreciate the diversity of our learners and inspire, motivate and engage them to achieve their individual successes. The concept of ‘One size fits all’ will not allow for equality for the students, nor a simple task for a teacher.…
