crassfreAR Kindergarten
EIIen has successfully campleted her Frofessional Experience on a Kindergarten class at Richmond PS. An
illness meant that Ellen had a disjointed practicum" re engaging with the students at the beginnlng of Term
3. Her nrotivation and dedication to teaching was clearly evident in lessons and follow up discussions.
Throughout the periad she made every effcrt to apply the advicel suggestions given by her experienced
Supervising Teacher" l-ler initialtask was to present a stronger'voice' in the classroom" She steadily
reached this goal.
Ellen had an excellent rapport with the class. She displayed genuine warmth and interest with all students.
Quietly spoken, wlth a calm demeanour, Ellen maintained a positive learning environment with allstudents.
She supported and encouraged students throughout lessons. Whitst behaviour management was not an
issue within KT, Ellen introduced her own behaviour management scheme which proved highly successful.
In the final week she experienced the introduction of a new student with behavioural problerns. Whilst not
directly involved she gained valuable experience and insight into the integration process.
Ellen's lesson preparation was thoughtful, well organised and documented. An awareness of appropriate
curriculurn content in many areas of the NSW Cunlculum content was incorporated into planning. Attention
was given to lesson outcomes, an impertant aspect of the schoal's learning program. The completion of the
G.T.P.A task enabled Ellen to explore the nature and importance of student data - re student leaming.
Throughout the practicum, Ellen imrnersed herself in all school activities. She presented as a
conscientious, motivated Pre- Service Teacher - professional in every way. Ellen has an excellent
feundation from which to enter the teaching profession. A promising career awaits!
