Kindergarten Classroom Management
The most effective classroom environment is one in which there is a sense of trust, advocacy for the student, engaging learning activities, and a sense of regular adventure. Students should be encouraged to actualize, to participate, and to think of their classroom as a community. Because each individual is unique in their learning style, classroom success is based on flexibility and the willingness to adapt and evolve on a moment's notices -- the idea of fluid intuition taken to the nth degree. ithin the modern pedagogical rubric, classroom management remains challenging at almost every level. In its base form, it is the process of ensuring that the classroom lessons run smoothly and that learning is accomplished with a minimum of interruptions. Research abounds as to the importance of classroom management in the contemporary school, as well as the frustration many teachers feel in an increasingly litigious environment in….

Kindergarten
hat is the right age for a child to enter kindergarten? This paper will delve into that topic, point out the benefits of having a child in kindergarten, and approach the issue of whether mandatory attendance is appropriate.

Kindergarten and Children

There are few issues that are discussed more in early childhood education than the issue of the appropriate age for a child to begin kindergarten. hen parents are surveyed about how ready their children are for kindergarten, they raise many questions about their children's need for schooling at a young age. hen teachers are interviewed, they identify age as an important factor "…that figures prominently in definitions and beliefs about readiness for kindergarten"; and teachers cite age as a "post hoc explanation for decisions to retain children in kindergarten" (Early Educational Development).

The publication Early Educational Development, a branch of the U.S. Health and Human Services Department, reported on a survey conducted….

Yu-Wha-Bhan-Did Kindergarten Business Model
Priority customers

The Kindergarten is targeted for children (both genders; any race) who range between the ages of 3 and 6. Obviously, since the preschool is located in the village of Master Home in Thailand, it is primarily for Thai children living in that village and living, more specifically, in the Pra-Tum-Thani region.

Many of the young prospects are students with parents or guardians who have tight work schedules leaving them room for possibly just accompanying their children to and from school.

Aside from the regular children who will need kindergarten, the school is also geared towards those who simply need some 'brushwork' work accomplished or some reinforced teaching methods.

Yu-Wha-Bhan-Did Kindergarten in effect, caters to two classes of students:

Those who are 'regular students' attending the kindergarten whole day and all its classes in a standardized manner

Those who are ad hoc attending classes that suits their parents / guardian's needs, or….

Motivate Private Kindergarten Teachers
The objective of this work in writing is to conduct a review of literature in the area of motivation and specific to motivation of teachers in private kindergartens. Towards this end, this study will examine motivation and specifically employee motivation as well as kindergarten and the previous research on private kindergarten.

Motivation

Motivation is defined as "the act or an instance of motivating, or providing with a reason to act in a certain way" or the "state or condition of being motivated" or finally, as "something that motivates." (Dictionary.com, 2012) The work of Cherry (nd) states that motivation can be defined as "the process that initiates, guides and maintains goal-oriented behaviors. Motivation is what causes us to act, whether it is getting a glass of water to reduce third or reading a book to gain knowledge." (p.1) Motivation is reported as involving the "biological, emotional, social, and cognitive….

Preschool and Kindergarten Success
The Influence of Preschool Participation on Educational Outcomes in Kindergarten

Increasingly, young children in the U.S. are attending and participating in preschool programs. Parents as well as others perceive preschool educational opportunities as facilitating later positive educational outcomes for children. The research conducted within this study was focused on determining the degree to which preschool participation is associated with the attainment of successful educational outcomes for children during their kindergarten years. The study was conducted via the use of the heuristic research method in which six studies were examined for the purposes of determining the association between preschool and educational outcomes in kindergarten.

The Influence of Preschool Participation on Educational Outcomes in Kindergarten

Introduction

During the last four decades, there has been increasing attention directed to the education of children who are under five (Barnett & Boocock, 1998). With ongoing changes in family structures and lifestyles, the number of children….

357) because she was very adept at using her instruction in pursuing the goal. One of the common interactions that took place during this time was the one of leadership by a different child at each table. There always seemed to be one child in each group of four that was the leader of the group, the one that the others looked to for guidance, the one that finished first and then to a certain degree helped the others with words of advice. One small boy even went as far as taking the Elmer's glue and putting it on the sticks of another child who was having difficulty in finishing his house.
Another interesting note was the special care that all the children displayed in regards to the disabled child. Almost one hundred percent of the students, at one point or another checked to see his progress, or if they….

The Bracken Basic Concept Scale

This scale assesses 258 concepts in 11 categorical areas (color, letter identification, numbers/counting, comparison, shapes, direction/position, social-emotional, size, textural/material, quantity, and time/sequence. The screening test, which can be administered individually or in small groups, consists of 30 items to identify children who might benefit from more intensive assessment. The primary use of the screening test is with kindergarten and first grade children. Thus, relational concepts, along with concepts in other skill areas such as color knowledge and letter identification, are included

Circus

This test was developed to provide prekindergarten and kindergarten teachers with comprehensive assessment information to help them diagnose children's instructional needs and evaluation programs. Circus consists of 17 instruments. Six of these assess basic concepts along with other concepts and areas of understanding.

The CSAB was developed to provide a profile of strengths and weaknesses of the prekindergarten and kindergarten child….

Fractions: What Happens between Kindergarten and the Army?
This article deals with the idea that the way that children learn about fractions and other mathematical concepts might actually be hurting them. The concern is that traditional teaching methods are not really the best for children. This is evidenced by the fact that children who are asked to solve problems with fractions do not often do so in a way that would be traditionally accepted in the mathematics community. In other words, children as young as kindergarten can sometimes solve even rather complex problems dealing with fractions, but they go about it in a totally different way then what would be traditionally accepted. This study was done by several teachers who became interested in the fact that children were not really fostering any kind of understanding of mathematics. It appeared that children who first start kindergarten have quite a bit of understanding….

While monolingual students have built in deficits to their native tongue due to their upraising, bilingual children are not so limited. In fact, because they must learn a completely new language they pay more specific attention in the mastery of vocabulary and other key indicators to future success within literary and reading comprehension.
urthermore, it is shown that children with English as their second language are ultimately better off in the long run due to several factors. They are more likely to leave their entry level school system and enter into separate school systems than monolingual children. Several factors contribute to this, high achievement with bilinguals means that they are often selected to magnet schools, and also their immigrant roots causes much more living adjustment than monolingual children. Also, bilingual children are also less likely to be referred to correctional services or the Child Adjustment Services than monolingual children.

Education
Twenty-seven kindergarten students attended Mrs. Brontny's music period. Fifteen of the students were male and twelve were female. The ethnicity of the students varied as follows: five African-American; two Hispanic; and the remainder were Caucasian. All spoke English well. There was only one teacher, Mrs. Carol Brotny. The room itself was large, brightly lit with fluorescent tubes but natural light streamed through the large windows. Instead of chairs, the teacher had placed a large area rug on the floor and the students either sat or stood up as the activity warranted.

When the students first entered the room they sang "This is my space," while they found a spot they liked. Mrs. Brontney's room was dedicated to music: posters on the walls ranged from song charts to photographs of instruments, mostly drums. The instruments in the room also varied. There was a grand piano as well as an older upright piano….

Teaching writing to young children
Learning how to write is an important tool in encouraging young children to get excited about reading. A 2010 experimental study in the Journal of Educational esearch (Jones, eutzel & Fargo 2010) compared two common techniques used in kindergarten classrooms to help young readers learn to write: interactive writing and the writing workshop method. "As children write, they analyze thought and meaning, experiment with words and form, and learn concepts of directionality, sequencing, and spacing" (Jones, eutzel & Fargo 2010). Previous studies indicated that even the very youngest readers could benefit from writing instruction, given the way that writing can help them analyze words letter by letter and that "letter-sound correspondence cannot be learned outside the written system" (Jones, eutzel & Fargo 2010). The benefits of writing instructions at the kindergarten level exist "even after controlling for socioeconomic status (SES) and IQ effects" (Jones, eutzel….

Lesson Plan for Pre-School English Learners
Annotated Lesson Plan

Objective of this project is to develop a lesson plan for pre-school English learners using the annotated lesson plan. The paper uses the SIOP model to teach children English language because young children have not yet developmentally ready to learn abstract concepts. Moreover, children are not yet ready to listen to teachers for a long time or carry out a paper and pencil task. In the early school year, the teachers need to engage children to talk about topic of interests, capitalize on their curiosity, singing songs, exploring new things and playing with materials. Thus, pre-school English learners should be taught to use and practice with new words, talking with peers in fantasy and real way. A teacher intending to use a SIOP model should use supplementary materials to teach young learners rather than relying on paper and pencil tasks. The visual and….

Kindergarten Memoirs
The First Day

The little fat girl cried on the first day of kindergarten. And not just a little snivel, but a loud full throated 62 pound ear shattering temper tantrum that clearly bespoke the message to anyone who was listening & #8230;GET ME THE HELL OUTTA HERE!....NOW! I remember my stomach churning like the ocean off the southern tip of the African continent. I can still see her in my mind; she wore a red dress and black shoes. Her hair was as dark as her mood.

I can see us now, Miss Klafkey's class, all dressed up with nowhere to hide. There was a general sense of anxiety amongst us all, a pervasive sense of doom. I think we were all wondering the same thing; what does she know that we don't know?

It wasn't long before others were crying too, including mothers. My fellow condemned prisoners were being….

curriculum content that implements strategies and methods that enhance language acquisition. This is done in light of the relevant theories that surround the proper development of linguistics in kindergarten children from vast socio-cultural backgrounds.
The teaching of linguistics to Kindergarten children is indicated by Ellis and McCartney (2011) to be quite a challenge. This is more dominant for the wide range of linguistic diversity as well as literacy development that exists within the 21st century classroom setting (p.44). This challenge is most common among pre-service teachers and the diversity in linguistics is noted to transcend continents as in never limited to the United States (Gerald and Hussar,2003). The diversity is noted to be present in other places that bear the same demographic trends as noted by Portes and umabaut (2001).In this paper we develop a curriculum content that implements strategies and methods that enhance language acquisition.
