There is a positive culture of learning and development that is celebrated by merits, certificates, displays and praise from teaching staff. School trips are used to help pupils to work together and increase team work and bonding. School clubs are varied and encourage pupils to further their interests in other areas. The school has an inclusive environment and positively reflects the importance of diversity, every effort is made to ensure that all pupils can be involved in all areas of school life and other cultures are celebrated. The aims or vision of a school are often seen in the school literature and are set by the head teacher in collaboration with the staff, parents and community.
I feel this gives the children and parents a sense of trust. I get down on the child’s level when I speak to them. I believe that by doing this it makes the child feel special and welcomed in the classroom. I ALWAYS praise a child’s accomplishments. I even cheer them on when they struggle with a task.
TDA 2.6 TASK (3.1) (3.4) Describe why teamwork is important in schools 3.1 Describe why team work is important in schools. Outstanding, efficient and effective, teamwork allows the school as a whole to run effectively and achieve excellent results not only for you but also for others. It helps to build a positive relationship with those that are within your team. When there is team work, responsibilities and tasks are shared and are completed more effectively and also in a good time scale. In a school there are many other people to consider as your team rather than just the people you work with closely on a daily basis.
They will be saying a couple of clear words – ma, papa, dada and my personal favourite ‘no’. Between the ages of 2 and 3 the child will enjoy colouring, learning names of objects, forming sentences, developing a personality, throwing tantrums, play with water sing nursery rhymes, run, put together jigsaw puzzles, put their shoes on and even dress themselves. 3 to 7 year olds will start to understand the difference between right and wrong, between 3 and 4 they develop motor skills. They can play games; start making friends in nursery and follow instructions. They attempt to write, recognise the alphabet and numbers and build on their social skills.
ITERS Observation Doing the ITERS observation was a great experience and I learned a lot from it. First, I confirm that I really want to work with infant and toddlers. Second, I appreciate how important is to have a good and adequate environment. Third, to observer how the teacher and stuff put in practice, all what I have learned so far in class. It was my first time in an Infants/toddlers classroom; it was a great opportunity for me to see all the developmental areas that children can explore every day in the classroom and specific the child – teacher relationship.
I will encourage students to get the most from their education and foster high standards of behaviour while making students’ time at the school a positive and enjoyable one. I am aware of the expectations placed on driving high academic achievements and behaviour and I am prepared to volunteer my time to become involved in activities which will develop NCHS School, helping to construct an even more successful community inside the school. I am eager to assume a pastoral role alongside my teaching duties, to shape the pupils experience of learning as a whole. I have successfully communicated with parents and carers of students to guarantee their support when dealing with challenging behaviour and also in congratulating students who have exceeded
I observed and used various types of pupil grouping across the different curriculum areas taught. This aimed to help with differentiation and helped to provide effective learning experiences for all children within my class. At the start of my placement I strongly agreed with ability grouping, this is because type of grouping I remember experiencing at school myself. Therefore, I took this experience into my placement school and also put children in ability groups for most subjects. However, upon reflection I believe some of my practice may have excluded some children from opportunities which may have further developed their learning.
If the kids are paying attention in class they will do good on the test. If the kids are doing good on the test it will show that the kids are paying attention in class and the teacher is actually teaching. ( Artia Rondone source 3 pg. 1) How the test is good is because it shows a lot about the students and the
I must also plan, design and prepare the environment ensuring suitable delivery resources and handouts are available. I must also deliver and facilitate teaching and learning in a suitable manner, ensuring my learners have learnt the necessary skills and knowledge. Obtaining feedback from the learners and evaluating this will ensure that things can be modified and changed as necessary. One of my roles as a teacher is to value all of my learners individually and equally. Also I need to create effective and stimulating opportunities for learning through high quality teaching that enables the development and progression of all learners.
However, studentsʼ motivation and attitudes toward L2 study were relatively positive and stable during the course. The findings provided some evidence that motivated students studied regularly and productively to take every opportunity to perfect their language skills. It was also found that each teacher idiosyncratically implemented the LOL course, thereby creating a unique class culture and affecting studentsʼ motivation and attitudes toward studying the L2 in the LOL context. The findings reinforced the importance of studentsʼ motivation and attitudes in L2 study and, equally important, the continuing critical role of the teacher in technology-enhanced teaching. KEYWORDS Motivation, Attitudes, Online Course, Second Language, Teacherʼs Role INTRODUCTION A studentʼs attitude and motivation has frequently been reported to be the most critical factor for success within computer-assisted language learning (CALL) environments (Brandl, 2002; Desmarais, 2002;
