My Students

My school is made up of seven kindergarten classes, and I am lucky to have 1 class with twenty-four students alone. My class is made up of four English Language Learners, and three children with an I.E.P (Individual Education Plan). My school population is ten percent L learners, ten percent I.E.P students, and fifty-three percent of children are qualified for free lunch based on their family socio-economic status. My students romp creatively while learning everyday. My students love to learn using hands-on activities in the specific centers in our classroom: reading, writing, math, science, social studies, and art. During lessons, my students get very excited to work independently and in group activities. Being their teacher is a great gift. I have the power to control their experience during kindergarten. I try to offer them many different learning techniques, then they can master the lessons. By showing them different learning styles, I hope they will achieve their kindergarten academics and carry it on into their future.

My Project

In my classroom, I promote hands-on learning because it encourages a student to do something in order for them to learn about it. At a young age, five year old children have to observe and understand what they are learning. After teaching a lesson, I always have the children go into groups to encourage interaction.

Hands-on learning encourages children to do things for themselves and work on independence.

I plan to use materials such as earth and environment theme boxes, paint, markers, brushes, STEM kit, collage boxes and book bins in my classroom in small and large groups. After I orally and visually teach a lesson, I like to put the children in groups based on their level. While they are in groups, I will allow the children to use the material to experience learning through their hands and working together. After using the hands-on learning materials, then the children can perform the written assignments. Children are able to expand more on their notes when they try things for themselves. For example: I can tell a child that a pumpkin will float in water, and they will most likely believe me. But having a child drop a pumpkin in a bucket of water and experiencing it themselves, will leave a bigger impact on a child.
