Presentation Reflection

1. The interview hepled me explain what I was going to present on and also hepled me use an example. I know my topic is still kindergarten teacher but for that day i decided to go into detail about the types of kids who are in the classroom. I said that there was kids with disabilities in the class with the rest of the kids who dont have a disability. For my exaple I used a small story that the interviewer told me about a kid who has a hearing problem. So when someone talks and everyone is able to hear across the room, the child will get irritated and cover his ears.

2. I think that my visual stood out the most becuase it was a picture of my little sister and she has a disability and so I knew what i was talking about so I felt confident.

3. Calming down becuase I knew what to say and how it was gonna go but when i stood up there, my hands were shaking really bad and I forgot to say some things. Also being confident in what i was going to say becuase then you would have to back it up.

Senior Porject Presentation 1

Objective: Students will learn what a teacher is, the styles of teaching a kindergarten class, and today's kindergaten class.

Procedure:

  1. Since everyone knows what a teacher is, I will ask everyone or a couple of people what a teacher is for a check of understanding. From there I will explain the definition of a teacher and say my definition of a teacher.
  2. I will say facts that I have found from my research and my interview and connect it to my childhood from when I was in kindergarten
  3. Explain the styles of teaching a kindergarten class from before and now. Also talk about what has changed and what remains the same.
  4. Resource/Materials:For my visual I plan on using a poster board and on one side it will say my objective and the other side will be a collage of pictures and there will be hidden pictures that represent today's children in kindergarten and how it’s changing. And that will be my conclusion for my presentation.

Blog 2

1. I am interviewing a kindergarten teacher from the elementary school I went to because the teacher has been there for years even before I went into kindergarten. Also out all the years i've been there, many parents liked how she teaches.

2. I would ask if she has any styles of teaching, does she do something different each year, do most of the children move on to the 1st grade, and is there always something that you can learn from the kids?

Senior Topic

My topic is teaching and to be specific I would like to do teaching on kindergarten. I've decided to do this because children grab a lot info around this age and it's something im very curious about. What I hope to accomplish is what its like on the other side. What I mean by this is the difference of being the teacher and not the student. Another thing I want to accomplish is that possibly looking at it as a career because I think it's a very interesting job.
