...Philosophies, Theories, and Concepts Jamie Field ECE 311 Early Childhood Curriculum & Methods Prof. Terri Surrency 08/26/2013 My goal for the future is to open my own in-home preschool and provide a positive and healthy learning experience to all that attend. I want to help guide and prepare our young children for their future in academics and life in general while having fun at the same time. My goals for the children are to teach them positive social skills, to be respectful to all people and things, to give them a voice and allow them to input their own ideas and opinions, give them a sense of pride and accomplishment to build self esteem, and to just love learning. Kindergarten today is not what it used to be and unfortunately, most children are not prepared for this. It’s important that our children feel comfortable and capable of entering into Kindergarten, which is where I come in. Although I do not have a concrete teaching philosophy I think I am leaning towards student-centered and progressivism. I think that teachers and students should work together to create learning experiences and opportunities. Progressive education is a form of education advocated by John Dewey in the early twentieth century. The basic idea of this philosophy is that students learn through experience, rather than through memorization. “Dewey believed that students, facing and ever-changing world, should master this scientific method: (1) Become aware of a problem; (2) define it; (3)...

...ESSAY ON ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF A GOOD TEACHER About My Subject: My subject is to teach Arabic as second Language for adult students from different Races and ethnicities. I have students from different cultural background. Some of my students are from Pakistani Families, some are Bengali Families, Indian Families, Kenyan Families and few of them are originally from British Background. I also have two Irish students too. It is very challenging because of different background of the students and it is very difficult because of different level of skills of Arabic Language. Some of the students are familiar with Arabic Alphabets, few words and few sentences because of their Muslim background. Many Muslims speak Urdu as their common language of communication which includes Arabic Alphabets and words. Some are learning Arabic for the first time, as beginners. Their level of learning skill is very low. Hence, it is very challenging that to teach such group and complete the aim and achieve the goal. Aim: The aim of the course is to learn reading, writing and speaking Arabic. The students can read, write and speak basic Arabic as a mean to communicate with Arabs and to access to Arabic Literature. Achievement: I am hoping that the students will be able to read, write and speak basic level of Arabic at the completion of the course. Certainly, I cannot expect very high expectations from the students. I cannot expect perfection in any of them. Some of them will achieve excellence...

...create, then apply those to the display. * Organizational skills. This goes along with #2, but organization includes comparing and contrasting, grouping, and arranging content in a meaningful way. * Communication. Teachers know that words combined with visual content can often communicate more than words alone. As well, the teacher must be a good communicator. * Minimalistic views. Good teachers know they must minimize content to the basic building blocks they want to teach. Rather than a display aimed at students who understand the most, the best, or the easiest, the display would be geared to include students who understand the least, the poorest, and the hardest. * Lastly, good teachers make visual displays part of the lesson plan. Displays or decorated bulletin boards are not just to make the room pretty. A good teacher can use one display to help students build many different skills. I personally love this bulletin board for the classroom. Not only is the quote inspirational for the children but it can also be incorporated into Science (the solar system). As a class you can make the rocket out of cardboard and decorate it. Have each student make their own star, NOT giving them pre-made ones. Have a discussion with the class that not all stars are the same just like them! Hang up red rope lights or red colored string for the rocket trail. For some Science inspiration, hang up paper lanterns in front of the bulletin board to make it look like planets. A list of...

...they are actually obtaining and processing. There are many forms of assessments that teachers can use to evaluate students understanding of lesson material. I will suggest a few methods that I will use in my secondary education mathematics classroom. The first strategy of monitoring I will discuss will be quizzes. There are multiple advantages for this form of testing. First, is that it easily produces recorded data. I can quickly grade multiple choice questions and record the students’ grade. Being able to record this grade will allow me to present scores to the parents when I am asked for a student’s progress. Another advantage to a quiz is the ability to assess both the entire class and each individual’s understanding on a topic. I will be able to look at the overall measurement and decide whether there is a need to review the topic or lesson, or if the class is ready to advance in the given studies. Also, by presenting multiple quizzes through the term the students and I can create a set format, which can help ease classroom anxiety. Another form of monitoring students’ progression through a lesson is homework. Homework can be one of the most effective methods for tracking mathematical progress. Assigning, collecting and grading homework can be a very timely way to gather information on how each student is progressing through the lesson, but homework provides a way for students to effectively review knowledge that had been taught that day in class. Through the grading process...

You must view the entire film. If you can’t access films because of deployment, geographic location, or other reasons, please let your instructor know so they can give you an alternate assignment. • Please type you answers into this sheet. You must submit the worksheet two ways: 1) upload the worksheet as a Word document 2) cut and paste your answers into the student response box for the assignment. • You must answer in complete sentences, using a short answer/paragraph format. 1. What is the title of the film you picked? A Class Divided 2. Why did you pick this film over the others offered? I chose this film mainly because of the strength of the message that was taught by Jane Elliott to her class. The controversial message in 1968 could have had a very horrible outbreak of speculation from the school district as well as the parents of the children she was teaching. Mrs. Elliott sought to open the eyes of her students by placing them in an experiment where their eye color is a discriminating factor, I was intrigued because they were so young and I wasn’t sure if they would understand the meaning of what Mrs. Elliott was trying to teach. I was very wrong in my assumptions of course. 3. What is/are...

...‘C’mon PE (TE) it’s time to get changed for dance’ (Keyworth and Smith, 2003: 107). A small-scale investigation into the challenges faced by the teacher in teaching dance activities as part of the Physical Education National Curriculum, and the impact of the teaching upon the response of pupils in relation to learning. Use literature; autobiography, personal reflection, questionnaire and observation data; and unit materials to support your responses to the following: Some pupils are very good at reading the spaces in team sports, while others read music fluently. Some find mental calculations easy; some are good at constructing 3D objects; some express ideas elegantly through dance (Arthur and Cremin, 2010: 278). It is clear from this quote alone that dance has an important role to play within the development of learning of some pupils. Tinning (2009) believe that the holistic approach incorporated within the teaching and leaning in dance is essential to allow a child’s full, embodied experience, seeking to nurture ‘thinking bodies’ and ‘moving minds’. Dance can provide an ideal vehicle through which children can start to explore and establish confidence in the processes, appreciating, composing and performing which are three ‘key factors in determining teaching and learning programs’ Smith-Autard (1994:1). Schools that incorporate dance programs within their curriculum have found that the educational experiences for both learners and staff members alike are enriched...

...SpringBoard Strategies to Check for Understanding Strategy Retellings Think-PairShare Choral Reading Definition Students consider information and then summarize what they understand about the text with a partner. Students discuss their responses with a peer before sharing with the whole class. Students mark the text to identify a particular concept and chime in, reading the marked text aloud in unison with the original reader. Purpose Students have to think about the sequence of ideas or events and their importance and then re-create the text in their own words. Students take a few minutes to think about the question or prompt. They pair up with a designated partner to compare thoughts. This strategy helps students develop fluency, differentiate between the reading of statements and questions, practice phrasing, pacing, and reading dialogue. It helps students learn how a character’s emotions are captured through vocal stress and intonation. Students learn to formulate questions that address issues (in lieu of simply stating their opinions) to facilitate their own discussion and arrive at a new understanding. Students also have the responsibility of supporting their opinions and responses using specific textual evidence. Using response devices, the teacher can easily note the responses of individual students while teaching the whole group. Additionally, response cards allow for participation by the whole class and not just a few students who raise their hands. This strategy...

...A Bad Teacher Can Affect A Bad Teacher Can Affect Students in Significant Ways Kaplan University School of Business and Management CM107X: College Composition I Author: Monna uchie Professor: Deborah Brien Date: January 27, 2012 Abstract In this paper, I will be discussing significant affects a bad teacher can have on a student. As a parent of an elementary child, some of the things that I have noticed are that a bad teacher fails to maintain control of the class and also stifles the child’s imagination by insisting on a single way of expressing an idea or working out a problem. I have also witnessed the affects of a bad teacher of my son when the teacher made the school material more like work than a learning exercise. The bad teacher’s actions affected my son in a negative way, because my son began to not like to want to go to school. I found that this affect was failing to equip my son to be able to move through life in a successful way. In my own personal situation as a student myself, I have encountered the affects that a bad teacher had on me when the professor did not give any feedback on the schoolwork that I have completed, and the professor did not make herself available to get the proper assistance that I needed. The professor’s actions affected me in a way that I had a lot of anxiety when I attended the professor’s class. I no longer was excited about the course; instead, I could not wait until the course was over. It was then that I noticed...
