LEARNING TO SKIP COUNT

SKIP COUNTING(PSRN)

Earlier we discussed about many topics in CLL( Communication Language Literacy) like CVC, Sight Words, Rhyming Words. So I thought it would be good if we discuss PSRN (Problem Solving, Reasoning, and Numeracy).

Today I will talk about, how to introduce skip counting in our class. 

Skip counting is one of the simplest math skills that your child will need to understand before learning how to multiply. 

It makes the foundation strong and helps them understand how multiplication works and breaks in simpler forms.

Skip counting helps not only in multiplication but also in addition and patterns.

By adding a number to itself again and again, the child memorizes the counting pattern.

They will be closer to understanding what you mean when you start showing simple multiplication problems and in later grades, when students are asked to memorize the multiplication tables.

To make the lesson and introduction more interesting we can use Craft Activities . Children get inquisitive and more interested when they see colourful innovative Activities.

The NEWSLETTERS

Hi Folks!

Today we are going to talk about the Newsletters. 

I am sure some of you know the importance of it but for those who don't, I will tell you briefly about it.

Newsletters play an important role in all spheres, be it education, marketing, manufacturing, information technology and so on.

A newsletter is a bulletin issued periodically to the members of a society or an organisation. It can be sent on a monthly, fortnightly or weekly basis to communicate the information regarding any future events that will soon be organised.

In schools, newsletters are very important medium to convey the information to parents.

Teachers interact with kids every day in classrooms, fields, discovery hall, library etc. but cannot meet the parents on daily basis hence sending the newsletters to parents is an excellent idea. They bridge the gap between parents and teachers. Parents get their child’s involvement and progress report on a regular basis of the different activities done in class and school.

Early years school can even send pictures of kids doing activity-based learning and it acts an eye opener for parents.

I am sharing  

FREE NEWSLETTER TEMPLATES & FREE BORDER TEMPLATES  for KINDERGARTEN TEACHERS use. They are all theme based. I will keep on adding more themes HERE.

WALT and WILF

This post is to help teachers to make the teaching and learning process interesting and more effective!
Introducing WALT to Kindergarten 1 and 2 classes to verify that they understand what the objectives are for the day.  

WALT refers to "We are learning to..." And

WILF stands for the phrase "What I am looking for...” 

Reference to WALT and WILF was introduced in primary schools as a way to communicate to children what the learning objectives for a particular lesson are, and what things the teacher will be looking for in a piece of work or during an activity. 

WALT and WILF stem from research by Shirley Clarke,  an academic who works with teachers to improve teaching and learning. Her idea was that if children know what is expected of them in a lesson, they can start to evaluate their own learning and having done so, can try to improve their work and be more successful in their learning.

Are you interested in coordinating a Learning Team for your School?
