The video I watched for the “Moment of Learning” assignment captured an approximately five-minute long small group activity, titled “Facilitating in the Art Studio. (Beautiful Stuff).” This video of a moment of learning helped me make connections to developmental theories and theorists. Also, showing visions of the children, the role of the teacher in the classroom, and the role of students playing with each other, which spurred discussions of this video with my own group and with the whole class, as well as connections I made to class lectures and readings, helped me to reflect on …show more content…

“… children have warm, caring relationship with the teachers, these relationship foster their development and learning…” (Pianta, Hamre, & Stuhlman 2004). In this video, the relationship between the children and their teacher looks strong. They are enthused to talk and express their ideas with him. And when he asked them to take turns and listen to each other, they accepted his guidance and suggestions. They were learning to hear the ideas of others and negotiate group relations. Also, “… Children at this age are developing a greater understanding of others mind and emotions…” (Denham & Kochanoff 2002; Perner, Lang, & Kloo 2002). For example, in this video, I could see the empathy and care for each other when Lakel was eager to help Taylor collect her cups when they …show more content…

Typically, this is when Vanket had an opportunity to observe a building in the book. In addition, Vygotsky talked about another aspect of socio-constructivism, which he called the “zone of proximal development” (ZPD). A student’s ZPD is the potential of what a child can learn with help. In observing Takel in the video, it was clear that he had some idea of the construction.

“Through documentation the teacher can make it possible for others to “see” the learning that takes place when developmentally appropriate teaching occurs. ”(Helm, Beneke, & Steinheimer, 2007, p 8) Not only do others see the learning but this strategy offers teachers a basis for reflecting and fueling the students further into their questioning and analysis. Fyfe explains further that activities and plain time itself needs to be added into the daily schedule for these sparks of learning to be born and grow, “to formulate hypotheses” (Gandini & Kiminsky, 2004, p 7) With this addition to the teachers and students moment of space, there must be a new attention to planning and organization in lessons and prospected outcomes. Flexibility must be apparent to give the child room to grow intellectually. “It requires a search for a new pattern of organization and communication with fellow teachers, children, and parents.”

According to Cockburn and Handscomb (2011), being able to form good relationships may lead children to feel valued and are more likely to respond well to learning. For example, the teacher knowing the children’s interests may provide them with information that can be used to engage and motivate the children within their learning. The time and effort that goes into forming these relationships will greatly impact on the children as this helps to gain the children’s respect and trust (Cockburn and Handscomb, 2011). Kyriacou (1997) also supports the idea that to make a sound relationship between the teacher and children is having mutual respect and rapport. This involves them identifying each other as individuals, holding each other in respect and treating each other in a manner consistent with such esteem.

Turner, M. (2010) reflection from module 3 slide show, is something I enjoyed reading which was Gardner’s theory towards the curriculum and how it should be used for the children’s strengths, and to be used a basis for planning to interpret the potential intelligence, Gardner explains that learning should be made focused on providing opportunities for the children.

Children and young people can feel security when educators are listening to their problems by not ignoring or consider as unimportant. Besides, body language is a good way to get close with children and young people since they can feel the interaction and support from educators because non-verbal communication can boost up the relationship with each other’s, such as eye-contact, greeting, gestures, etc. that can show good manners and respect. Also, Foley, D. (2015) mentioned that it is important for teaching assistant to respect people from different cultures, beliefs or values, such as celebrating the different culture through dressing differently, so that they can proud of themselves and respected by the others.

Developing a positive rapport with students can be accomplished when the educator treats his or her (her will be used hereon for the sake of simplicity) students with a high level of respect, is honest, reliable, and a great role model.
