The first days of a child at school

The first days of a child at school.

This studying year started with teaching practice «The first days of a child at school» . This practice lasted for the first week of September.

It was the passive practice. We watched how children were adapting to school.

We attended three lessons a day which were in a game form. We also visited a special event on September 1. It was the concert for first-form pupils.

All lessons were constructed in the game form. During this week the teacher became a friend to children. The teacher always spoke in a quiet voice and created a comfortable environment in the classroom.

At the lessons the teacher discussed the rules of school life with pupils. A lot of visibility like bright pictures and special posters were used in the lessons.

Children worked individually and in groups. Also teacher used various games, for example the game «Name`s ball» . This game helped children to meet with their teacher and classmates.

It was hard for children to use the rules of school life. They wanted to run , jump and play, but they had to sit at a desk and listen to the teacher. It was very difficult for them, but soon they got used to keep these rules.

We think the practice was useful for us, because we mastered a lot of new methods for working with children. Now we know how to help children adapt to school.

Thank you!
