On Friday I had the possibility of being part of a different class. The students' interactions clearly showed a different teaching approach by the teachers. A different class environment developed a variety of skills that range from reading, listening and speaking. Also playing has a crucial role in the children's mental and behavioral development.
Music lessons help children to learn to express themselves not just verbally but also physically. Playing and singing with music and arts are another way to communicate.
In a 5 years old class where children already learned basic skills the focus is not anymore on relationships but on personal learning. Acquiring ground level knowledge is the goal of the teachers in pre-k classes.
I hope that in the remaining time I can come out with new significant facts that will help me to answer my essential question. At the end I am really happy of how my project is going.

This is a really interesting observation. The psychology of children, how they communicate. Sitting back and watching is an incredible thing. One can only learn so much from learning to become a teacher. Once you go out into the field and attempt to teach someone then you can become successful. They always say that teaching is the best way to learn!
