  1. Service-learning Experience By: Maricela Castro

  2. Wee Read • I went to the Wee Read for my field experience at the Central Library. • Wee Read helps children to explore in an environment that nurtures and stimulates them with a wide variety of experiences that will help them with language acquisition and pre-literacy skills. • The songs were very helpful for the children because this helped them learn rhythm and repetition.

  3. The Learning Zone • This was the first time I went to the Learning Zone. • Heunderstood what I was saying but he didn’t know how to speak back to me in English. • The concept that I can apply to the field from class is to teach ELL’s their native language first in order for them to acquire the second language with more ease. • Does a paperclip float or sink in water or in soap? www.flickr.com/photos/kylemacdonald/66016569/ Free powerpoint template: www.brainybetty.com

  7. The Library • It was amazing to see how excited she was to learn how to write her name in cursive. • How do we get them interested in their native language? • When students are interested in something, they will be more motivated and enthusiastic in learning it. • An emergent writer is a concept from class that really resonates in these field experiences because there are children in all levels of writing. www.mcpasd.k12.wi.us/.../resources/cursive.cfm Free powerpoint template: www.brainybetty.com

Wee Read • Estefania led her lesson on colors. • She read the book, Cat’s Colors by Jane Cabrera. • We will be alone one day in our classroom and for this reason I think that it is essential that we are gaining experience by practicing it. • This experience has enhanced my understanding of specific course outcomes by learning how to approach children effectively.

  10. Wee Read Activities • We sang a song, “If You’ve Got a Special Letter” in the tune of “If Your Happy and You Know it,” while we said every child’s name. • The children were smiling and clapping while they sang this song. • The “Apple Boogie” in the tune of “The Hokey Pokey.” • They were given a picture of an apple glued to a green stick to use as prompt for the song. • The activity consisted of pasting the letter on one side of the circle and the picture that corresponded with that letter on the other side.
