Hero or Villain After the American revolution, farmers in the united states were rebelling against the authority. These farmers used terrible tactics to get their point across. Although the people think shay’s rebellion were villains, nevertheless they were also heroes in some ways because they had their reasons to rebel for their rights which made their actions justifiable, they stood up for people other than themselves, and they had refreshed our country. First they had their reasons to rebel against the government for their rights, which makes their actions justifiable.…
Spending two and half hours in each classroom, I learned a great deal about early childhood education from ages birth through eight, and the effort and skills that it takes to create a stimulating learning environment. For my infant, toddler, and preschool observations, I spent my hours at the CCC Childcare Center located in our college while for my kindergarten, 1st grade, 2nd grade observations, I spent my time at Casey Park Elementary School. During my observations at the CCC Childcare Center, I learned plenty about the methods and practices that go into early education before primary grades. The preschool classroom really stood out to me because the centers in the classroom were very open ended and filled with lots of manipulative for…
Observation: Rise Program Physical Setting Rise is a beautiful facility. All of the windows looking into the classrooms and looking outside are my favorite because they provide light, openness, and a sense of connection throughout the whole building. The commons is also a great area. It is large and open for all of the kids to spread out and explore their surroundings, while engaging in gross motor activities, such as going down a slide, riding a tricycle, or jumping on a trampoline.…

Introduction: How Children Succed p.xiii&xv In this introduction I was surprised on how they are having three year olds filling out worksheets and completing drills on letter and number recognition (Tough, 2013, p.xiii). I did notice when my son went to transitional kindergarten that what was expected from him was what a kindergarten back then would be learning. When he went to kindergarten he was expected to know more than what I remember was required before.…

My field work experience had started in the preschool and where I have done the majority of my observations thus far. In the preschool I was beginning to understand how the different of components of the preschool all had concepts of phycology through all aspects of the classroom. During my time I saw how Piaget’s stages of cognitive development, how students handled new information through various methods, and Vygotsky’s sociocultural perspective are incorporated through different sections of the classroom. The classroom was based that learning should not be a structured experience, but learning should be developed through play and exploration.…

When it came to teaching reading, Mrs. Laura was able to take the book and create different activities for the children to learn. She made it fun for the children to learn. When she created the different activities, she was able to target different goals such as spelling.…
There, I had the opportunity to observe lessons as well as helping young people with any questions about the work they may have. I had the opportunity to work with different year groups of different abilities and I very much enjoyed the day. I found it very inspiring when a young person would ask me a question about a problem they did not understand and I explained it in such a way that they came away saying they understood it. One student took to answering their problem with confidence out loud in the classroom, which of course made me very happy. The idea of helping many more students in this way with many more problems underlines why I want to become a teacher.…

The teacher sat down at one of the tables and instructed the students to get started on his/her homework from school, or to quietly read a book. At the time, there were only five children in the classroom. The teacher prepped afternoon activities while children worked on homework assignments and chatted with their peers.…
As I walked into the classroom, I was immediately stuck by the noise. Sounds resonated from every corner of the room in discordant refrain, inflecting a deafening blow on my still-waking ears. “Welcome to morning in Pre-K”, I thought. While soaking up the sound, I followed the secretary who had led me to the classroom to meet the classroom teacher. She looked young and kind, the secretary securing this perception with her stamp of approval, “This is Mrs. Davis.…
