Effective learning especially for early childhood is one of the most vital component when comes to children development. From the assessment done, there are fundamental component which comes to be of much concern when comes to teaching young children. I understand that it is hard for managing 3-4year-old kids. But I can say the experience was good starting from the interaction of the kids and also the mode of teaching. It is one of delicate stage of development and therefore more attention are required. I can also say it is one of the craziest stage and more active. Stage of ready to learn since they are more of emulating what is being done. From the assessment, I can say that the following are indicators of effective curriculum. First is the children were active and also engaged. This was evident from the areas; literacy, maths, science, and arts. And this were evident domain such as cognitive, social, physical and empirical involvement. Secondly is that the goals which were set have been achieved. Thirdly the curriculum is evidence-based and lastly valued content especially in the learning investigation are focused and also intentional learning.
Learning standards are defined as the written and concise description of what the student are expected to know and also able to do at a specific stage of their education. In respect to learning experience in this case study. They are correlated for instance, it concludes with the goals which were earlier identified by the childhood teacher. Learning experience therefore elaborates on the following themes; subject areas which in this scenario are basic maths, art, literacy, science, arts and technology which are also appropriate learning standards to children. Secondly is the learning progress upon which each subject area is organized in accordance with grade level. Third it also take care of the education goals in which many set learning standards such as overarching and long-term education goals are able to describe the knowledge, skills and character. Lastly content whereby the set learning standards are unique and commonality from the system to system as described in the childhood teacher goals.
The language used by adults affects cognitive growth and learning in children in many subtle ways. Labeling is a powerful way to foster conceptual development. Development and early learning can be supported continuously as a child develops, and early knowledge and skills inform and influence future learning. This is important for the development of a child as it help them master things and therefore able to distinguish them effectively.

· Students will learn comperhension by recalling details.
· Will correctly define 9/10 vocabulary words by writing the definition of each.
· Following along, reading, and summarizing simple stories with pictures
Teaching Procedures (to include introduction of the lesson, and step-by-step procedures for the activites to promote student inquiry and checking for studentsâ understanding over the course of the activites)
Gather the Corduroy books that I plan to use for the lesson (A Pocket for Corduroy by Don Freeman) along with a stuffed bear to use when students are ready to begin writing and piecing their own adventure stories together. This particular lesson will focus on the book, A Pocket for Corduroy. The students will attentively listen to the story and will be asked to create their own stories electronically. Corduroy will allow the students to gain a personal connection by having close interactions with a stuffed bear and develop their own adventures with Corduroy. I will also provide envelopes for children to use as pockets. Tell them to draw a picture of something to place in their pocket. On the outside of the envelope, children write clues about what is inside. The rest of the class reads the clues and tries to guess what the pocket contains.
UDL Technology Integration (describe one UDL component and explain how it will be integrated into the lesson):
In this particular lesson there is a flexibility and openness that is available to allow the students to demonstrate their knowledge and skills of the content. There are not any strict guidelines for how the student presents their electronic adventure, based on the Corduroy story.
The assignment is organized in multiple points for choice of presentation:
· Free choice of resource materials,
· Free choice of access (text, digital, audio),

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Curriculum Alignment.docx
1. Curriculum Alignment
Provide a clear Curriculum AlignmentâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ.. 1) Lesson componentsGrade levelThe
grade level chosen for this study is the preschool which is the first stage of learning that
children undertake before starting the mandatory education; it is usually for children
between the ages of three to five years.Subject areaPreschool program consists of the
following subjects; â language arts, cognitive development, creative arts, music, motor
skills, dramatic play, discovery and computer lab.Learning objectivesLanguage
development-the children learn how to speak and express themselves. Through interaction
with the teacher and his classmates the child learns how to talk and communicate with
people. Through language development the children also learn to share opinions, ideas and
thoughts.Cognitive development- the children are taught to see and know things. They are
taught to recognize and know things a way of stimulating their memory. They learn
concepts like numbering, coloring, counting and recognizing shapes.Health and safety skills-
they are taught about personal hygiene and how to take care of themselves. They learn
basic grooming like toilet training, washing hands, brushing teeth and dressing themselves
among other things. They are taught how to keep their propertyin order when in school like
how to place study equipment after a lesson, where to keep their bags, books and
coats.Social skills- the children learn how to interact with their peers. They also learn about
self confidence and they are taught how to develop self esteem. They learn about discipline
and how to follow rules, be independent and focus. Through playing games, performing
activities, singing they learn about expressing themselves and also learn about developing
personal feelings towards things and people.Physical development- the children are taught
about physical fitness and motor skills. Through playing they practice to do things like
throwing, jumping, catching and running. They also learn how to coordinate their muscles
by practicing writing, drawing, coloring and cutting in class (Ida, 2006).2) Instructional
resourcesThese are the equipments used by teachers to aid them when teaching the
preschool students. They are very many but for this study the following were chosen books,
study toys and the computer. These were chosen because they are the most common
resources used in schools and that which most children are familiar with.3) Why each area
in the evaluation list is important pedagogically.Content is very important since it shows the
teacher what to teach the children that is appropriate of their age.Information is important
since it helps the teacher to know what and how to teach the children.Text is what the
children are to learn and know which helps them to understand what the teacher is
teaching.Graphics are used to help the children to visually understand the text.4) The
2. importance of choosing culturally appropriate and linguistically sensitive material.In a
school situation it is common to find people of different cultures and it is appropriate to
teach material that is sensitive to each child so that the children and their families donâ t
think that a teacher is being unfair and promoting racism among cultures. This helps
children to also understand that they are all equal and should respect each other (CLAS,
2010).5) Why each resource would or would not be used.Book are good to use since they
tend to explain more and have more information for the children to learn, however books
might not be appropriate for them at that particular time since they have not developed
reading skills yet.Toys are very good for explaining to the children and they will be very
attracted to them hence be willing to learn, however they might concentrate more on
playing with the toys instead of concentrating in the lesson.The computer is very good and
children are able to learn how to use it early which is good since it is universally used
however computer learning is very complex for the minds of the children which are still
developing.ReferencesCulturally and linguistically appropriate services (C.L.A.S) and

In our society today it is very vital to use the computer in our
daily lives. Many parents are allowing their children at a very tender age to use the
computer. This has led the schools to also adapt the computer studies into their curriculum.

_____________________________ Resource: TOYS
When children begin school they first start to play before they are put into the education
system. Through playing the children will develop skills that they will need for their future
development and the understanding of the education system. The educational toys that
children are given by teachers will help them to understand and enhance their skills. It is
easier for child to remember his numbers if he uses the education toys during his math
5. lesson. How the child plays with his/her toys will b every important for his social skills.
Through the interaction the teacher will be able to know how the child might interact with
his peers and hence encourage him if itâ s good or help him change If the teacher feels that
the behavior adapted by the child is
