Reflection:

Teaching routines in the beginning of the year for KG classes is the most important thing that the
teacher should use to helps the children in the learning cycle. In my classroom, the teacher uses a suit
routine which can help the children in many ways which are to be accustomed, and they will feel
security and assist them to develop their self-discipline, and the children will understand what is coming
next in their day. Thus, that will lead to developing the children in many fields in learning.

Before you begin to complete the table talk a little bit about the class/lesson in which this plan for routines is to be used:
This routens is for KG 2 students, and the lesson was math, the learning object for the lesson is students will be able to know the
different between below and above, recognize above and below meaning, and make sentences using above and below. There are
some main activities that I did it in each center, and they should sharing materials. The transitions will be from the circle area to the

After the Task - Reflection

Choose 3 best practices you observed during your time in school. Reflect on these and consider why you could
implement these in a UAE KG classroom in the future. Explain how these practices will affect student learning in a KG
class.

Thier are many strategies that I would implement it in my future teaching to make it effective learning cycle, such as using the
reward system, a lot of hands-on actitvies and using the rules poster. First of all, using reward system can manage students
behavior in many aspects, and it can evolve their performance in the class. The second technique is using lots of hands-on activities
because I notice in each TP I went to, that the children are learning through doing, and solving the activities not just sitting and
listing to the teacher, and also, using the child center in each lesson. The last system I would use in my future is put a poster that
shows the rules and each rule has a picture that shows the children how they should behave or sit in the classroom, and this poster
can evolve their manner, and let the children be quieter and listing to the teacher.
