Kindergarten Observation

229 Words1 Page

On November 13, 2015 I observed a kindergarten class at the school where I work as the BAC Director. The students were between the ages of 5 and 6 years of age. The student were studying community helpers.
Many of the students were dressed in their favorite community helpers. I observed a lot of policemen, firemen doctors and nurses. Some I was not quite sure what they were. I liked that the student were encouraged to dress up. This made the students feel important. The students also had a parade for the whole school to see.
After the parade the students also had one of the parents of the school come speak to them. He is an airplane pilot. He talked about going to flight school and everything he had to complete to become a pilot. The

    Volunteering at a children’s crisis treatment facility, volunteering with Special Olympics, coaching children’s sports teams for 10 years and working as a substitute education assistant has increased my understanding of childhood development. Grandmound Elementary School provides me with opportunities to strengthen my leadership and collaboration skills, through teaching art (as a volunteer) to the 3rd, 4th and 5th grade and serving as PTA president.

Participating in these activities has confirmed that working with families and particularly children are my purpose.

    I went to McKinley Junior High on Tuesday! I didn’t really know what to expect from the school, or what it would be like because I’ve never been inside a public junior high. My school was K-8, so it was big, but it also had more grades than just 6-8th. When I got to McKinley, I was shocked at how big it actually was. I was nervous walking in because it was really big, and I was scared I wasn’t going to be able to find the office. Sure enough it took me a little while to find the office, I was very confused. Once I got into the office, I told the lady at the front test that I was from Coe and she handed me a slip of paper that said 321 and that was it. So, I wondered the halls a little bit looking for the classroom.

    I spent my time volunteering with the Concordia teacher corps as a reading coach at Faubion elementary school. This program has been going on for a couple of years, and what it does is help struggling readers in the community. It takes students who very often can not even write their own name, or even know where to begin reading a book, and pairs them up with a reading coach. The reading coach 's job is to not only teach them how to read, but also to show them that reading can be enjoyable. This can prove to be exceptionally difficult when tutoring an energetic kindergartener who does not want to sit still. The whole program lasts about 16 weeks. In the end, the students receive a couple of books and a game that they can take home. There is

    We are born with a natural desire to learn. This inclination can be demonstrated by watching the process of a toddler learning to walk. Children this age want to explore, and through innate ability, social, and behavioral factors these little humans get up time after time when they fall. Despite falling, failing, the child eventually learns to walk. Somewhere, on our journey through life we develop a fear of failure, and according to Dweck (2016), this anxiety of failure and the aspiration to succeed can promote a fixed mindset. However, it is the growth mindset that encourages Grit, perseverance, and passion to persist despite setbacks.
