The Department of Education (DepEd) having been driven to formulate strategies that will give students an unquestionable quality of education, has been implementing numerous laws to improve the education of the country nowadays. The Department further fortifies their goal through the inclusion of kindergarten to the new K to 12 basic education curriculum in the country. DepEd believes that during Kindergarten years, a student experiences growth and development, establishes the ability of talking, reasoning, acquires self-esteem and morality, and forms their visions of the world. In short, it is when their brains develop rapidly. Kindergarten is considered as the smooth transition stage between the informal and formal literacy. Students at this …show more content…

All the students’ reading materials consists of stories familiar to the learner so that the focus of the learner is on the process of reading rather than being distracted with new situations and unfamiliar people and places. Teachers integrate oral literature, local arts, local history, craft and music in the syllabus so as to support the learner’s culture. This strategy stipulates a link between what the learner knows (his/her first language and culture) and the unknown (what they need to learn). They studied elementary students in Lubuagan, Kalinga to filter out how many students learned better using their native language or using Foreign (English) Language. The study succeeded and found out that many of the top 40 students of each level improved their performance after being taught using their native language. 32 of the top students in Grade 1, 30 students in Grade 2, and 32 in Grade 3. While the students performed poorly when taught in foreign language. The result consisted 36 students in Grade 1, 40 students in Grade 2 and 31 students in Grade
This section involves the examination of student culture and who or what made them the way they are today, as Edmundson seems to think that it is not the students’ fault for creating the culture in which they are ensnared. He has come up with this idea that students are “self-contained” and that “strong emotional display is forbidden” (7); but this is simply their “cool consumer culture” at work since the “specter of the uncool creates a subtle tyranny” (21, 8). Students are “desperate to blend in,” and with that in mind, they are neither passionate nor enthusiastic and are “nonassertive,” afraid to speak out and be aggressive (8). Edmundson continues this section by giving answers—his belief of what has happened. He goes from “persona ads” to sheltered childhoods to “future prospects” to “rebound teaching,” all of which circle back to his claim about his students not having an intellectual dedication to school (8, 10-11).
The Civil war is one of the largest topics covered in 8th grade US history, with it’s change in America affecting us to this day. The importance of this unit may not be widely known, but the Civil war changed our country for the better. Being able to have a struggle to learn from to know how to make better decisions for our country’s future is essential to keep this country together. How we get taught about the Civil war can vary depending on the state and the books you read. I was given the chance to compare the Michigan State Curriculum on the Civil war and the book “Lincoln’s last Days” by Bill O’Reilly and Dwight Jon Zimmerman, and I must say the differences in the two are very apparent.

As the expectations for children entering kindergarten rise, so should a child’s preparation for the concepts that they will be expected to know. More and more parents are making the decision to enroll their children into some type of preschool to help prepare them for kindergarten, and more and more of these students are succeeding in their early school years and even their later life. In fact, 61% of parents say that their children are enrolled in preschool, which has risen by 6% in just one year (Early Childhood Education Zone)! Kids that do not receive the opportunity to attend pre-kindergarten classes are not getting the chance to succeed at their full potential.

Through this knowledge, the teacher can presume how children of a particular age group will act, what they are capable of doing and what they are not likely able to do. Consequently, the teacher can devise activities rather confidently by taking all these aspects into consideration. At this stage, the teacher can take advantage of the windows of opportunity for the child’s growth. In other words, the teacher benefits from the sensitive period of a child’s development to provide him with enriching activities; the best period for the child to learn and develop further. In addition, what the children learn should be relevant to their environment and life experiences.
