...Reflective paper of Math 213 and Math 214 Patsy Castanon Math 214 April 27 Dwight Filley Reflective paper of Math 213 and Math 214 In an elementary level, a positive learning atmosphere in a school for young children is a composite of many things. It is an attitude that respects children. It is a place where children receive guidance and encouragement from the responsible adults around them. It is an environment where children can experiment and try out new ideas without fear or failure. It is an atmosphere that builds children’s self-confidence so they dare to take risks. It is an environment that nurtures a love of learning. In order to be a successful teacher, you need to understand that each child has different ways in which they learn better. I feel a teacher should have a variety of teaching techniques and mix all the different ways of teaching in their lesson plans to help fill the needs of each individual student.

During my visit, I had the opportunity to observe a speech pathologist at work. I also observed a kindergarten class.

This is the building block to set the children off to a right start in order for them to be successful in elementary school. As children enter the middle childhood, many physical, cognitive, and emotional skills advance and develop from young childhood. Advances that elementary school children experience are literacy, cognitive, gender identification, and relationships.

...which would allow the students to be in school during the months that are unsuitable for farming. Traditional education was kids learning from their grandparents, family, friends, and from the nature of the world. “Education was the product of an intimate relationship with the community and its environment.” (pg. 110) Also, they would learn from their personal experiences like how to recognize different strains of barley. The children would learn about the connection, process, and change in the natural world surrounding them through personal experiences as well. At young ages children were taught how to provide for themselves with clothing and shelter. Also, they were taught how to make shoes out of yak skin, robes out sheep wool, and build houses out of mud and stone. According to Norberg-Hodge this “gave children an intuitive awareness that allowed them, as they grew older, to use resources in an effective and suitable way.” (pg. 111) In the 1970s Western education came to the Ladakhi culture and completely changed their education system. The Western education did not provide any of the knowledge of traditional education to Ladkhi children. Actually the traditional Ladakh education system was looked down upon in the modern education.

...help any teacher or administrator accomplish their lesson or school goals with the utmost efficiency. Motivation is what makes a person engage in an activity or uphold expected behaviors. Once an educator learns what motivates his or her students, everyone will benefit from the process. This paper will discuss a tentative motivational plan for Hinman Elementary School in Henderson, NV. In an elementary school setting, the children may have a hard time settling down to actually learn. The lack of student motivation in schools is a major concern for modern educators. Teachers and parents alike are trying to find the best ways to motivate their children to do well in school. Educational researchers have accepted four parts of motivation while studying student learning. They include: behavioral, humanistic, cognitive, and social aspects of motivation (Glynn, 2005). Because all children are somewhat different, it is important to find what each child would be motivated by. There are two main types of motivation: intrinsic and extrinsic. Motivation to perform an activity for the benefit of oneself is mainly intrinsic, whereas motivation to perform it as a means to an end is mainly extrinsic (Glynn, 2005). Some children really want to do well for themselves and the way that it makes them feel. This is mostly because they are curious about a subject or have...

In the past few years, using digital tablets on elementary education was almost unimaginable but it seems that they have become accustomed to this new style of education and it has become increasingly common in Japan. However, most of the elementary schools in Japan are not ready for implementing iPad in the classroom. Someone may argue that there are various demerits of studying with digital tablets. Digital tablets kill children’s curiosity, motivation and opportunity to study. However, is this really so? The reality is that children can be super-productive with their iPad by improving children’s curiosity, motivation and opportunity to study....
