Example Of Developing Appropriate Classroom

10 Different Examples

Learning is one of the most important activities in which children are engaged. It is at the very core of the educational process, although most of what people learn occurs outside of school. In one of the classrooms there was an object on one of the tables that was a shark box with little pieces of construction paper fish. Each had one of the children’s names on them capitalized so the child could recognize and learn the letters of their name. The teacher would have them place their fish inside the shark to feed it. This builds and develops the child’s imagination. This is an example of Developing Appropriate Curriculum.

People construct their own understanding and knowledge through experiences. Included on the back of this paper you will see some examples done in the classroom. Another example in class was a similar process with writing and drawing. However, this example will go through the process of what the teacher did to aid the child in completing a task.
