Part 1
To practice lesson planning, create an age appropriate sensory activity for early childhood-aged students. Your lesson plan should include a goal, learning outcomes, materials, and a step-by-step guide on how to complete the activity. You will want to refer back to Lesson 5 to see an example of how to format and create your lesson plan as well as ideas and suggestions.
Title: Slime Letters
Goal: To gain knowledge of letters of the alphabet through sensory play during small group time in the classroom.
Learning Outcome: gain meaning by listening, knowledge and recognition of letters, represents ideas through play, convey letters with meaning, begins to make sense of problems, uses simple strategies to solve issues that arrive,

Materials: Large numbers from block center
Teacher Instructions: During large group math, students will act out addition problems at “the bus stop”. Students will take turns being the actors, get a number and sit on the bus with another number. Class will solve the problem of how many the numbers will make before getting off the bus. Next student will write the new number (answer) on the dry erase board.
Part 3
To practice implementing art centers, create an age appropriate art center for early childhood-aged students. Your art center should include a description of the center, the necessary materials, where it will be located, how it will be organized, and rules and limits. You will want to refer back to Lesson 8 to see examples of art centers.
Description of art center: The art center is located
At: Students at grade level will be expected to complete 6-8 of the three digit addition problems during the provided activity time. At grade level students will be expected to use at least one of the provided strategies to solve for the sum. Students who finish early will be asked to draw a picture or write and explanation of the strategy/strategies they used to find the sum. The teacher will direct students who are early finishers to complete this task individually. Slow finishes will be provided with three, two-digit addition problems
* Read an alphabet book. Ask children to point to the letters and say their names after you.
The intended goal of this exercise is to assist children in learning the upper and lower case letters of the alphabet while introducing them to the idea of recording data, as well as, improving their fine motor skills.
For example, recognizing that words are combinations of letters. Identifying specific letters in unfamiliar words, saying the alphabet, pointing out letters of the alphabet in their own names and in written texts, and Spelling words phonetically, relating letters to the sounds they hear in the word.
In my internship course I have gained a lot of knowledge of how a preschool is run. The teacher must follow a handbook that specifically instructs them how to teach a lesson. It’s the teacher's responsibility to create activities that relate to the topic. The lesson must extend to different parts of the New Jersey curriculum. For example math, literacy, project based learning, science, etc.
To begin with, the first element in creating a lesson plan would be an anticipatory set. An anticipatory set is used to activate students’ interest and get them ready to learn. When creating an anticipatory set teachers may want to consider students previous knowledge, learning styles, and interest. An anticipatory
Since my tutee is young, I chose the Phonics Fish game to use during tutoring for the week. I chose this activity because it seems to be very engaging and the tutee is having fun while he is learning. It is a great review activity that will help my tutee use their growing visual awareness of phonics sounds and patterns to conduct word families. Since my tutee has trouble with fluency because he wants to sound out almost every word before he reads it, this will help when he comes to a word that he may not know, he can look to see if it belongs to a word family word that he does know.
Letters are taught with a mnemonic device so your child can remember the shape easily. Groups of letters are taught together, so after just a few lessons your child knows 6-7 letters.
When someone is creating a lesson plan, the first thing they should do is specify concrete objectives. This gives you a starting point that you can build off of. Then you can come up with a good introduction to start the lesson along with learning activities. After that a teacher should make a conclusion, a way to discuss what was covered in the lesson. The sixth thing is making the timeline, getting everything you want into a certain timespan. Since there is so much to teach and so little time, teachers have to condense a lot of material. Another aspect that I learned is that nothing is perfect and you will learn from your mistakes. The good thing about a lesson plan is that if it does not work then you can adjust it for future
In my classroom, I plan to have pencils and paper in every center so that the children will have the opportunity to write at all times. With the writing and art centers, the children will be able to create works of art such as stories, pictures, writing their names, and other works of art that they would like. In the writing and art centers, the possibilities are endless as to what the children can create and they are able to use their imagination, fine motor skills, all while working on communicating their thoughts and ideas onto paper.
Language, where your imagination finds words to share it with the world! Sunny loves working on activities in this area to enhance her reading and writing skills. She is fluent in reading simple phonetic words and has just begun to start reading primary phonics series books to practice her sentence reading skill. It was quite impressive to see how quickly she got the concept of word building using movable alphabet. In this lesson, we have objects or pictures and the student has to make word to match these objects/pictures using movable alphabet. Sunny often chooses to note down the words she has created on a paper to practice her handwriting skill as well.
This book can be used to teach young students to see the fun side of learning the alphabet. I would take them to a trip around the school and hunt for letters. For example, I would take them to the playground and ask them to take the first letter of the words they can see.
Letter Identification will incorporate teaching children’s names, characteristics and construction of the alphabets. The objective of teaching Letter Identification is to confirm that children are able to distinguish names and sounds of the alphabet letters. These are three activities to enhance children’s learning experiences with recognizing alphabet letters. The letter Identification change project will compare three children in two different classrooms. An informal Letter Recognition Assessment was conducted in six Head Start children between three to four years of age to examine the recognition of the letters of the alphabet. The Data that is collected and used is Child Observation Record and Anecdotal notes. Children will actively engage
When we think of pirates, we see scruffy men with unshaven chins, a bandana, a gold earing, a black patch on one eye, and a wooden leg, men with guns in hand, riding the seas in their wooden ship proudly flying the terrifying skull and crossbones. Well, pirates these days look much different. In fact, you may be sitting by one right now. They are ordinary people who have come to enjoy the technologies the Internet provides. These pirates are boys and girls, women and men, who habitually root themselves in their desk chairs with eyes fixed on the computer screen. But today's pirates have something in common with the pirates of days lost in history. Both steal what doesn't belong to them. Today's pirates
According to recent research, 61% of people ages 14-24 illegally download copyrighted music (Van Der Sar, Aug. 2009). Known as “file sharing,” the process of making digital files available over the internet is a habit among many people of all ages. Since Napster, the first file sharing program, came out in 1999, the prevalence of file sharing steadily increased. According to Koleman Strumpf, by 2006, 60% of all internet traffic was due to file sharing, up from less than 10% in 1999 (Pries 1). The rapid growth of file sharing can be attributed to several factors, one of which is the general social acceptance of downloading music without paying for it (Grassmuck 1). Not everyone supports file sharing, however. The Recording Industry
