Part 1 :Role of the Teacher
Read through the following article and watch the videos that are provided. The article is actually focused on school aged children, not preschool, so you will see graphics that show children sitting in desks, not on the floor like a preschool, and you will see photos of information. But the information provided is very very good!! I especially am excited to introduce you to Universal Design for Learning (UDL).
