Entry # 1: My Expectations

About the Class
This semester I will be working in the Pre-K 4 classroom at Saint Alban's School on 317 E 50th St. I will be assisting the head teacher, Christina, twice a week on Monday and Tuesday afternoons. The Pre-K 4 classroom has 17 students, one head teacher and one assistant. The student's attend school from 8:30am to 3pm.

My Expectations
I look forward to working with the Pre-K 4 group this semester. I am currently the head teacher for the Pre-K 3 class and it will be very interesting for me to observe the developmental abilities of four year olds as compared to my current age group. With each observation and with each group of children I work with I always learn new styles of teaching and learning. I'm hoping to take what I learn from Christina and the children to better my own practice.

  1. The developmental jumps between ages 3 and 4 for very exciting to see-sometimes it can feel as if there are changes daily. Although the same can probably be said for ages 2-3 as well. Are some of the students in the 4's group children you had as the 3's teacher last year? If so, you are really see a large span of growth. Good luck and enjoy. I look forward to your next entry with more detail of your observations.
