There were a few older students joining the activities at Oak Knoll Elementary recently, and they came ready to learn, too!
Students from Williamstown High School's Child Development 2 class visited Oak Knoll's Pre-K and kindergarten classrooms to get a firsthand look at what goes into teaching and working with young children.
Throughout the visit, the high schoolers joined preschool students for movement activities, choice time, and learning activities. They also lent a hand during kindergarten lessons, spending time alongside teachers and seeing how they guide children through different parts of the school day.
But they weren't just there to help out. They were also paying attention to the little things that can make a big difference in a classroom, including how teachers give directions, offer guidance, and support students as they learn.
Once back at WHS, the class talked about what they observed and how the approaches used by Oak Knoll's teachers connected to what they've been studying in Child Development 2.
