The Curriculum for Preschool and Kindergarten Children
Part 1
The curriculum for preschool and kindergarten children is a framework organized to help learners develop social and emotional abilities. For example, a caregiver or teacher can read a storybook to a child, pause in the middle and ask questions. This builds social and emotional competence and also information and skills.
The discrete trial training technique involves breaking down skills into small, discrete components. It looks into behavior as a three-step process, the antecedent, the behavior, and the consequence. For example, you can tell a child to touch their head.
The pivotal response treatment teaching technique is used to assist autistic children in improving their social skills and behavior, and children are rewarded for making an effort. For example, if a child requests a stuffed animal, the reward should be a stuffed animal, not an unrelated one. It helps children in socializing and communication.
Positive behavioral interventions and support is an approach that is used in schools to encourage school safety and also good behavior. For example, teachers can help learners to clean the classroom on dismissal. It helps learners to improve an individual’s behavior.
Positive reinforcement is a technique to motivate learners to exercise positive behavior. For example, clapping and cheering learners when they answer questions correctly. It gives learners confidence and helps them to change their behavior commendably.
The antecedent intervention focuses on eradicating any negative instructions which can lead to problem student behavior by changing the environment before the problem occurs. For example, providing choices to questions and giving prices when they get the questions right. It helps prevent negative behavior which could have occurred.
The consequence technique is the response to the behavior of learners to help them behave appropriately by fixing the mess on their own. For example, if a learner pours water in the classroom, the student is supposed to the room during lunch break. This helps learners learn how to fix their mess even in real life.
Contingency involves rewarding children for engaging themselves in target behaviors and working towards a group goal. For example, learners can be asked to pull the paper chain up to a specified length in groups. The winging group can be given pencils, each one them to appreciate the. It helps learners to learn how to work with their peers.
Time away involves learners being asked to leave an activity when the environment is not conducive to him/and coming back later. For example, when a learner comes to class upset, the teacher can ask them to go to the school flower garden and come back later. This helps learners to learn the cooling-off effect making them concentrate in class.
Punishment technique is used in schools whereby an event is given whenever the learner shows an unacceptable behavior. For instance, children can be made to do chores, have cool-off time, exercise, and tidy up their mess. It helps children to develop effective prevention measures and also helps them reform misbehavior.
