Aman Sangha! 3121185111 EDUF 3031: Professional Statement ! The unit of study ‘Positive Approaches to Special Education’ has given me the opportunity to reflect on my practices as a pre-service teacher and how well they incorporate an inclusive approach to education. Although I have not come across children with additional needs in my practicums, inclusion has been an hidden agenda within my goals and practices.

Developmentally Appropriate Practice ECE203: Introduction to Curriculum & Instruction for the Early Child Classroom Developmentally appropriate practice or DAP is illustrated as a means “To encourage quality early childhood instruction through the creation of an outline for best practice. Based on both in the study on child development and learning and in the knowledge base regarding instructional effectiveness, the agenda summarizes a practice that supports the best education and development for the children.” (National Association for the Education of Young Children, 2009, pg.1, para.1). Developmentally appropriate practice looks into every area of Early Childhood education; from the existing curriculum to the classroom set-up, and whether they are based on the children’s learning needs and how they will move forward, to ensure the children’s success. Some instructors find teaching young children overwhelming; but if they are able to comprehend the characteristics of these young ones, they can consider those characteristics every time they plan their lessons and activities. Children are always full of energy and they often get tired of sitting quietly for a long time; this may have an effect on their attention span, making them distracted and inattentive.

My Educational Philosophy and Rationale on today’s Education. My Educational Philosophy is to educate the whole child.
The Case for Storytelling in the Classroom Wayne E. Smith Dr. Ray McCarthy Global and Historical Perspectives on Education EDU 7201 Northeastern University CPS February 25, 2012 Abstract The literary archives are filled with papers that validate the reason to utilize storytelling in our educational system as an ideal tool for teaching, learning with retention and real-life applications, and also for establishing an invaluable teacher-student connection resulting from using storytelling to personalize the schooling experience. (Simmons, 2001; Wright, 2004; Gillard, 2012). Yet, and without the publication of research materials that conclude storytelling in the classroom to be useless, it is difficult to find many in academia who will “go on record” and take an active role in support of its value or to recommend it as a course of study to be taught. Also, there are not many who pay attention to its practical application as a teaching tool in the classroom. While using and teaching storytelling in the classroom is purported (Simmons, 2001; Gillard, 2012) to be effective at all levels of education, its application in high school is of particular value because it is during this time that many young students are struggling with identity issues, self-worth and concern for their success as adults.
The conclusion of the study was that early Montessori education had a long-term impact on later public school performance”(Cavegn). By way of example, parents who may be questioning the transition between a Montessori preschool to a traditional public school can view these results, and feel confident that the Montessori preschool program can potentially be the most effective and influential option for a preschool child’s higher education. Skills that are inevitably learned through Montessori, such as leadership, independence, socialization, respect, etc. further develop students’ education, and allow them to surpass other students who lack a Montessori education, in terms of test scores and grade point
