A big challenge we see in Kindergarten is teaching the sscholars how to participate. We then will see similar things as other grades, that they are shy, don’t know the answer or maybe as was mentioned yesterday, already know the topic so they don’t want to share.

We defintely give directions in advance such as what are we expecting to see, a calm body, walking feet, sitting up, quiet raised hands. I also think mom your students you can give the students a fidget/ squishy, pop it to help focus them and make it calm. Sitting certain students in a smaller group can be helpful to prevent nervous feelings or confusion.

Hands-on activities are a must in all classrooms! I can use more manipulatives and foldables in social studies instruction. I can make the lessons more engaging by using these types of activities (student-centered).

Ms. Falby is a great facilitator of PD sessions. It felt like we were students learning valuable information from her.

Some challenges seen in regard to participation is fear. I have seen many students afraid to get involved because they believe their answer could be wrong. Peer pressure also plays a role in their engagement.
