Sensory Learning To Teach's 'This Little Piggy'
Sensory learning: discovering the world through sight, hearing, taste, touch and smell. Observational learning: when children watch others performing a task or activity they can remember what was done and recognise what they should do if they try it themselves.
Question: Question 1b
Answer: Hearing – Babies will learn to speak by listening to the people around them and imitating the sounds they hear. Children can recognise the voices of their family members and learn to recognise different tones of voice to determine emotions. They can be taught not to cross the road if they hear a car coming or not to stroke a dog who is growling and learn to keep themselves safe this way. Toddlers will often learn nursery rhymes from listening to them repeatedly

They might also enjoy listening to the noises that pigs make and imitate the noises themselves. Both of these activities would be good for 2-3 year olds.
The Tale of Peter Rabbit
Children, 4-5, can play with teddies of rabbits while the story is being read to them so they can act out the scenes in the story using the teddies. They may also enjoy getting to see and taste the kind of food a rabbit would want to take from someone's garden and find out what kind of food they can grow in their own gardens.
Winnie The Pooh
A good sensory aid for this story would be honey, children can taste the honey and discuss why Pooh Bear loves it so much. Another way of encouraging children to take part might be pictures of Hundred Acre Wood and items from woodlands such as pine cones and sticks, the children can use these things to help them imagine what it would be like to live in a forest. Both of these activities would be good for children of 3-5 years.

By focusing on only one aspect of a situation, children fail to notice other important features that could be key to understanding what they see.

In this situation, Piglet exercises centration by only focusing on one factor of the wind. As the story unfolds, Piglet’s friends help him to see that wind can do other things besides be loud and scary by showing him fun activities that require wind.…

    For many years, teachers, parents and child care providers saw how young children learn through play. Studies of child development play, reading, and writing show that young children learn differently from adults. Young children must be active while they learn. They must experience first hand and in very real ways how things work, how spoken words can be written, and how reading helps them function in the world. Structured learning activities such as paper and pencil tasks, workbook pages, drill, and sitting and listening for long periods of time do not work for young children.…

    Aims: The aim of this assignment is to demonstrate and plan a story to read to a group of children aged 2 and half to 4. I chose this age group because this is the group I work with on a daily bases from 9:30 to 12:30 five days a week. I am picking a story called “Oh Dear” by Rod Campbell who is a Scottish writer and illustrator of several popular children's books including the classic lift-the-flap board book “Dear Zoo”. As it is a story that helps the children with learning the different animals on the farm and also encourages the children to use their imaginations as they lift up the different flaps in the book to see what is behind them. Which Maria Montessori says “Imaginative teaching materials are the heart of the process”. All of Rod Campbell’s “books have simple text often with repeating phrases which is ideal for pre-readers” and will also Help the children with langue and intellectual skills. “The child proceeds at his own pace in an environment controlled to provide means of learning” -Maria Montessori. this book also helps the children physically as they have to get up to lift up the flaps on the book “movement is therefore the essential of life education cannot be conceived of ad a means to moderate or worse to inhibit movement; it should only function as an aid to a better expenditure of energy whilst allowing it to develop normally” -Maria Montessori pg 102 discovery of a child. “The aim of the children who persevere in their work with an object is certainly not to “learn”; they are drawn to it by the needs of their inner life, which must be recognized and developed by its means.” – Maria Montessori pg 120 discovery of a child. To develop their attention spans…
