Kindergarten

More Than Just Education Growing up I was surrounded by teachers who encouraged me to always do my best and to never give up. They were the kinds of teachers who wanted to see all of their students succeed and would go above and beyond to make that happen. I have always admired the drive they had to make school fun and exciting for each student. They are the reason I want to be an elementary school teacher. Being a teacher is something that I have always seen myself doing with my future. I want…

people even when you think they will not be involved in life ever again. For example, you might not have been nice to someone when you were little and then when you are interviewing for a job they could be the interviewer or the boss. When I was in kindergarten I was really upset because my best friend from pre-school, Katelyn Nesbitt, wasn’t in my class.

I really enjoyed watching the video. The purpose of John Sinnett 's was that he wanted his students to see that he was engaged just as the students were. From the video, we can see that John is very passionate about his kindergarten students. During his lesson, he gets down on the carpet on the same level as his student to make them feel engaged. This is something that is very important because students are so to teachers telling what to do. However, John decided to structure his class…

our class discussion about accommodating the lesson for students who may have learning/behavior disabilities, vision or hearing impairments, or other forms of disabilities. A kindergarten physical science standard covers the topic of objects being sorted and described by their properties, such as color. Going into a kindergarten classroom this semester, I think the students would love observing and predicting what is going to happen with the colors and the gobstoppers themselves and would enjoy…

The National Institute of Child and Human Development (2012) was summoned by Congress in 1997 through its Child Development and Behavior Branch and United States Department of Education to establish the National Reading Panel to evaluate research that exists and evidence of the best teaching practices to teach children to read. The panel consisted of members of various backgrounds, which included school administrators, teachers in their current practice, and scientists that solely engaged in…

I saw a great amount of planning for inclusion during my observation in the kindergarten. The teachers in the classroom set up the classroom so it was suited for students with and without disabilities. The classroom had objects that incorporated sensory elements. Such as a play chest with manipulatives, an area with housekeeping toys, an area for clay creations, an area for blocks, an area for coloring, and an area to listen and read to a book. The teachers also often used simple language when…

always thought it would we nice to do it myself. Baking would be my second choice because I love to bake. There are so many recipes that you can try and having your own shop of baked goods would be rewarding. I 've always loved kids so teaching in a Kindergarten or Elementary school would be a dream. It would be great to see their progress from the beginning to the end of the year and to say that I helped them get there. In Interior Design, designers have to do a lot of things for their client.…

dates back to my kindergarten days when I could sit there in class and listen to my kindergarten teacher read to use. The teacher read slowly and showed us picture so as make sure that we understood what she was reading to us. She read to us for a number of times and now our turn to practice reading and writing came. I started learning how to write letters, words and finally composing sentences. Spelling was not my thing as I always struggled to get the spellings right. My kindergarten teacher…
