In Pre-K children learn through playing. In the very early years of life, playing and using their imagin gives children a chance to make connections. When playing store, it is common for children to ask their teacher what a specific food is or what a box says. In first grade children begin to learn from their mistakes. When they do things wrong one way they then learn what not to do next time, and what to try instead. In third grade children learn by working together. This allows students to pull from the information the other students know. The students help each other and this gives the children a chance to learn different problem solving methods.
Testing students give teachers a great indicator of how much each student knows. This will give the teacher a good starter point or gives them a chance to prepare for what they may have to go over again. Finding students strong points and making the connections on how that subject was taught gives the teacher a great indicator of how they learn. There are many different ways to learn; Visual, Auditory, and Kinesthetic.
Visual learners use images to help better understand what is bring taught. Somone telling you an apple is red or the sky is blue does not hold as much promise as knowing that an apple is red because you have seen it or the sky is blue because you stood outside and saw it yourself. Things like pictures, charts, and even movies allow students to have an image to help them remember what is taught.
Auditory learners learn by listening. Some people are able to pick up on things that they hear, such as music. When you listen to the radio, because the songs are played often it is common that you may start picking up on a song. Catchy songs aren’t the only
