appropriate Virginia SOL and it gets the students sway from worksheets and up out of their seats
engaged and having fun which is one of the best ways to learn. The more the game is played the
better and faster the students will be at recognizing their letters and sight words. Once students
understand how letters work, students will understand how words work, then the student can
begin reading.
Reflection for Developmentally Appropriate Instruction
The artifact I selected mirrors my teaching philosophy because the dynamics of
this activity enhances student learning. I find this activity very useful because you can present it
in two different ways to the students (letter identification and letter sounds). Teachers can
present this activity as whole group instruction, small guided group instruction, enrichment, or
even remediation depending on the students learning needs. Its also just good practice and
repetition is vital for kindergarten learning. I also, find this activity truly engaging for students
and they have a lot of fun. This artifact aligns with the appropriate Virginia SOLs, is engaging
for students, has multiple purposes, and the students are learning. What more could a teacher ask
for?
