Observing through Video #1





Learning Numeracy
Reception - 5 years old
Watch how the teacher speaks to the children. GENTLE!
Surprisingly, NO SHOUTING!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Watch how she teaches the children
  • She uses MAKATON Sign language - a simple sign language to teach all children. Why? Because children not only listen and see, but also get to do the actions! This helps learning better. Also, because they practices INCLUSION learning, there might be special need student, so the MAKATON helps everyone!

Sign language used :
  • 1 more or 1 less
  • Adding (using the hand to make the shape of +)
  • Take Away (using the hand to make the shape of -)

She uses ENCOURAGING WORDS to increase children's confidence and self-esteem
  1. What a lovely number formation!
  2.  Well done Owen! Well done Sabrina!
  3.  What a SUPERB ANSWER!

HOW did she teach ADDING & TAKE AWAY?

Teacher asked : Shall we see how many children we have this morning? --> head count!
Using the Children attendance to do ADDING & TAKE AWAY!
Encourages participation.
And asked, what will we be learning this week? Our special word today is TAKE AWAY!
And lots more when you observe 
Hope you'll benefit some knowledge through this video.
