    1.2 – Throughout children’s development, activities and milestones can link into more than one learning area. To give an example of this, I draw on an activity I carried out and observed, involving a child who attended a nursery I was an employee at. It was a creative activity based around a book. First, we had to read the book, which encouraged the child to use their literacy skills as they handled the printed pages with interest. The reading also linked to personal, social and emotional development as the child climbed onto my knee to listen to the story. They were one of my key children, who I had a duty to build a special bond with. After we had finished the book I brought it over to the creative table. The child followed me and sat down. I gave them some paper and a paint brush and indicated to the page they could copy off. The picture was of a bear. The child used their fine motor skills to dip the brush into the paint and to move it around the paper.…

    al review the impact of implementing cooperative learning into the classroom. To conduct their study, the authors gained insight into the perceptions of 10 teachers from Australia who introduced cooperative learning into their classes over two school terms. Having attracted so much attention over the past few decades and with copious amounts of research suggesting it has both academic and social benefits for students, cooperative learning is a topic of great interest to me. In this study the teachers reported a number of benefits to be gained from cooperative learning although difficulties with its implementation were also experienced. This article provided me with important insight into the problems teachers commonly experience when using group work. For example, the tendency for students to socialise rather than focus on the task at hand, the level of preparation required for its effective implementation and managing time effectively. Methods to overcome these problems were also mentioned with the authors identifying a number of factors as being crucial to its success including, group composition, task type and training for both teachers and students alike. With such a large body of research supporting the use cooperative learning the reluctance of teachers embracing it concerns me. Gilles et al. propose that this resistance may be a result of the lack of understanding from teachers, on the effective use of cooperative learning as a pedagogical practice. When implementing cooperative learning there are many factors for teachers to consider. These include, ensuring group work is well prepared and well structured, providing tasks that are challenging and demonstrate a level of complexity and preparing students skills to resolve and manage conflict and monitor group progress. This is significant as research suggests that often little consideration is given to group composition, task complexity or skill preparation, when students are…

    Thriving Classroom

    When first starting in early childhood the perfect classroom environment can easily be mistaken for a perfect quiet controlled one. The truth is one that is controlled only in small proportions by the adult and dictated by the children can prove to be a much more thriving and conducive environment. When working in a preschool room variety and observation is one of the top two ingredients for a successful room among many others. When preschool is mentioned the age group that is ideal for this is a multi-age from 2.5 to 5 years old. As Dr. Montessori expresses that this allows children to mentor and learn from different ages of development (Jaruszewicz, 2013). The other ideals for a thriving classroom come from different curriculums and theories. The theories I will explore will be intertwining the classic Montessori methods and Reggio Emilia method with the more modern methods and principles of creative curriculum.…
