overwhelmed with meeting new people and was sitting alone on the swing set. Lyla went over to him and spent about an hour with him until he was smiling and laughing again. Most importantly, though, Lyla is a defender of those in need. When she was in kindergarten, she stood up for a classmate who was being bullied for his small size, and furthermore befriended…

just not the case. Jobs, patience, cost, and location are some parts that need to be thought through; however, a parent 's ability is not one of the parts. With a bit of research and hands on preschool manipulatives, anyone can prepare a child for kindergarten. Keeping a young child at home with his or her parent for as long as possible is not something a parent should feel guilty about in any way. It is often difficult to incorporate social and emotional learning when a child is not in a…

I interviewed a mom who I will call KG. KG has a daughter that is approximately 16 months old who I will refer to as RG. RG has not always attended a daycare center. The first six months after she was born KG was a stay at home mom to her daughter. KG was going to school for education during that time and when she finished and decided to look for a job is when RG began going to this daycare center where KG is a teacher. The center that she attends is a Christian based daycare. One of the…

among people in the United States. If you were to ask a person walking down the street, it would almost be a surprise to hear if they had not attended at least a pre-k class before entering Kindergarten. In preschool, you learn things like how to count or how to write your name, this way once you get to kindergarten they can focus on more advanced topics.…

The American education system is a complete mess in regards to race divisions. The educational system is in fact the main contributor to race divisions in schools. More than half of the funding for schools come from “local sources” such as property taxes, stated by Eduardo Porter. This means that poorer neighborhoods get less funding than a rich neighborhood. This gap is huge, thus giving the rich an “edge” over the poor (Porter). Whites have usually been in the United States for more…

not love going but I did find a passion for education at a lower level. I have spent almost every day in a kindergarten classroom for the past two years and I have learned more about the importance of education than I did actually in school. There is a reason we sit through school for thirteen years and it is to find our purpose in life that God intended. For me it was to become a kindergarten teacher and now that I know that I do not think school is pointless. However, I do find calculus to be…

ages birth through eight, and the effort and skills that it takes to create a stimulating learning environment. For my infant, toddler, and preschool observations, I spent my hours at the CCC Childcare Center located in our college while for my kindergarten, 1st grade, 2nd grade observations, I spent my time at Casey Park Elementary School. During my observations at the CCC Childcare Center, I learned plenty about the methods and practices that go into early education before primary grades.…

an opportunity to scaffold development. I also have to make changes within the room that I utilize for this project to make it developmentally appropriate for ages (0-5). The need to research shared reading activities DAP for children birth to kindergarten will be a slight enhancement due to my focus on children ages (3-5). These two new adjustments can help support the demonstration of strength and perseverance when faced with adversity from individuals that aren’t like minded. I know what…

Introduction The saying “children are the future” resonated as a young child to an adult with young children and working with young children. Children are our future and as teachers there is a commitment to help shape them for the future. What is meant by shape? Not to force them to learn, but to allow them to learn and appreciate the learning process. As they mature, they can use their skills and creativity to convey new ideas to the world. Starting a child’s education at a younger age is…
