I use a variety of strategies to engage young children, including hands-on activities, storytelling, and interactive games. I also incorporate music and movement to keep them active and interested. By adapting activities to their developmental levels and interests, I ensure that each child feels motivated and excited to learn.

I address behavioral issues by first understanding the root cause, whether it's frustration, boredom, or a need for attention. I use positive reinforcement, clear expectations, and consistent routines to guide behavior. When necessary, I provide one-on-one support to help the child understand and manage their emotions.

For a nursery class, I designed a lesson plan around the theme of 'Community Helpers.' The plan included reading a story about different helpers, role-playing activities where children could pretend to be firefighters or doctors, and a craft session where they made their own community helper badges. This approach integrated literacy, social skills, and creativity.

I assess student progress through ongoing observations, checklists, and portfolios that document their development in various areas such as language, motor skills, and social interactions. I also use formative assessments like group activities and individual tasks to gauge understanding and adjust instruction accordingly.

I believe in open and frequent communication with parents. I use daily reports, parent-teacher conferences, and digital platforms to share updates on their child's progress and any concerns. I also encourage parents to share their insights and participate in classroom activities, fostering a collaborative environment that supports the child's holistic development.
