Reflection 9/17


Cognitive Approach and The CALLA Approach

It seems like the cognitive approach emphasizes the need to teach students with a level of higher-order thinking skills, which involves more crucial ways teachers apply their lessons to the students.  In comparison to the CALLA approach, the cognitive approach has for main components of learning...cognitive, metacognitive, social affective strategies, and cross linguistic strategies.  


With the department's implementation of the Common Core State Standards and its expectations of ensuring that all students are taught with these standards, it may be challenging for many of our ELL learners grasp each standard.  Effective planning and execution of the lessons are crucial for the ELL learners to fully ensure that they are afforded the opportunity to academically and socially succeed.


QUOTE:


"They may forget what you said but they will never forget how you made them feel." - Carol Buchner

There are times in which I feel like a broken recorder at school, most especially when instructing the students to be "quiet" during instructional time.  Some students will react immediately, while others will continue their merrily way.  It is those moments whereas I will quietly approach the student and whisper about proper behavior in class.  Teary eyes would occur and it is at this point, I will question myself, "Is it really necessary to hear a pin drop in class or a little buzzing in the air could be interpreted as learning?"

    Good thing we learn the CALLA Approach so it will help teachers teach the Common Core Standard in a way our ELL students will able to understand it well.

    To answer your questions, Maybe we as teachers must go with what works for our students but not what works for us.
