As a future teacher I would like to know if there is any tips or strategies that help with maintaining the class concentrated in the content being given. I know that in early childhood children have a lot of energy, so I would like to know any tips that can keep the class as concentrated as possible?
Hello Stephanie,
For early childhood it is hard for students to concentrate so lessons should be engaging and should spark their interest so that they do not lose interest in the lesson. So for a Science lesson it should be hands on so that they are engaged and entertained. Some examples can be like making tornado in a jar, layers of a variety of foods so that they can learn about the soil layers, teaching them with a visual of what sinks and what floats. Many fun activities can be done with science.
