The final assignment for module 3
Before this module about inclusive classroom, I used to teach in tradional or more general ways according to scheduled plan given by authorities... I thought the lesson should be only completed on the basis of that plan.
Now I observed inclusive approach is more effective and I plan to use creating Inclusive Lesson methods and I make sure we should develop study topics that are relevant to the children in our care, give children opportunities to make choices on their own
This is important because inclusive practice refers to the instructional and behavioral strategies that improve academic and social- emotional outcomes for all learners, with and without disabilities, in general education settings.
I developed an effective inclusive activity that I could use in my class to increase the use of English in the classroom. While planning my lesson I took into account thatt he children in my class have different backgrounds, needs, interests, and abilities. In order to effectively teach the children in my care, our lesson plans need to be as diverse as they are. One thing we need to remember as we work to establish an inclusive classroom is that every classroom will vary in how it facilitates learning for every child.
I have learned best practices we can use as guidelines for our own strategies in creating an inclusive early childhood classroom. I found them from additional resourses.
Make sure you develop study topics that are relevant to the children in your care. Study topics should be based on curriculum requirements and standards in your state. They should also be determined by the interests of students and whether your school or center is in a rural, suburban, or urban area. Try to also set up special areas in the classroom that spotlight topics children may overlook.
Give children opportunities to make choices as much as possible. Children are much more likely to be engaged in the classroom if they can make choices about which activity they want to do or learning center they want to visit. Giving children opportunities to make choices also helps them develop their decision-making skills.
Limit large-group experiences and activities. Small groups or individual experiences often facilitate learning better than large group activities. Early morning is usually the best time to do group activities and lessons since children are well rested and absorb information easier.
Use learning centers for child-directed play and instructional purposes. Learning centers are a great way for children to explore and learn on their own or in small groups. They also give children a chance to practice their decision-making skills. Learning centers that are designed for instructional purposes (e.g., literacy and writing centers) are also a valuable part of inclusive early childhood classrooms.
Develop hands-on activities that allow children to work directly with objects and materials in their environment. Hands-on activities that allow children to safely touch, taste, smell, and see objects they are discussing or reading about in class provide great learning opportunities for kids. Children will learn a lot more if you cut open a fruit or vegetable and give them the opportunity to touch, smell, and taste it than they will from looking at pictures.
Use individualized instruction as much as possible. Individualized instruction is a vital part of establishing an inclusive early childhood classroom. Whether it's helping a child create a block structure or helping a child learn to write the alphabet, one-on-one instruction allows you to help all children become successful learners.
Plan hands-on activities that meet children's developmental needs and feature multi-level challenges for children. Projects that correspond with topics you're discussing in class, classroom gardens, and word walls are all great examples of hands-on activities that provide a variety of challenges and learning experiences for children.
So I could use these strategies during my lesson activities according their position I like it because it's more learner-centred method in other words All learners are unique and have their own strengths.
I might need to modify the collaborative activities for my classroom. I think it is really important to have a friendly and open atmosphere in the classroom. So, I ask for their opinion and I value their feedback and give them the opportunity to choose topics from time to time. I try not to judge them and to show understanding when they are having problems. It is really important to create a sense of community within the group of students I work with. We play a lot of games together, but we also do a lot of activities outside the classroom. I have students who are very good at drawing, so they help me create teaching materials. I also have students who have good acting skills, so I try to introduce drama activities in my lesson, so that they can demonstrate their abilities.
