In my opinion, I think children of that age learn best with hands-on activities. Being outside the classroom learning from the elements of nature and your surroundings, instead of sitting all day learning from books. While learning from textbooks is a must, teachers can always make it fun. By doing activities on the Internet, as technology grows, younger children learn to use computers. Also, making board games to learn numbers and letters, puzzles for kids to learn shapes and sizes. There are so many things available today that teachers can use to teach younger children many different things about learning and having fun. It is important that children understand and use what they learn in class on a daily basis. Not only in class but also at home. This is where parents come in. The relationship between parents and teachers should be on good terms when my child is so young. Keeping the parent updated on their child's behavior and academic status in the classroom should be a key focus for the teacher. if the teacher and parents do not have this relationship then the child may not be able to learn to the best of his ability, like the other children in the class. On the other hand, the teacher and student relationship should also be very important for the teacher. Understand what a child needs in the classroom and how some children learn and interact with each. There are many different types of children who learn in different ways. Some need images, audio, players, or a combination of all of these. I feel that a teacher needs to learn what type of student a student is and learn how to meet their learning needs. If a teacher fails to do this, some children may be left in the dust per say, when they learn a certain way. The most important thing a child could learn while in kindergarten is their social skills. These skills are an important part that everyone needs to develop in this society. Social skills learned early in life have a great impact on them and can take them far in life. When this skill is learned at school, children feel more comfortable and respectful of others. This can be found by playing with each other, sharing their toys and being able to control the anger that other children might cause.
