This phase is considered to be a crucial one for them in their mental and emotional development. Being a preschool teacher comes with an added duty because they enter in children’s life when their minds are free and driven towards gathering knowledge and information. So, it is evident that they have to be more diligent in dealing with them as they can go in wrong direction if there is a lack of proper guidance.
Here we have listed some most popular and effective techniques for such young learners:-
- Use of symbols and logos: The best way to promote pre-school learning is by using visualization technique. This would help children to enrich their vocabulary by naming popular brands or symbols. Using flashcards is one of the best forms of teaching pre-school kids. The visual method will have a longer and greater impact on them than the written form.
- Multiple activities at a time: A research suggests that starting off with simple activities like listening or reading and gradually shifting to lively activities like dancing or running will help students in increasing their excitement to learn.

Curriculum is an important resource in bringing children to their best. Pedagogy is an approach towards teaching students, whether it is the theory or practice of educating. It defines a connection between the techniques of learning and culture around the students. It aims to develop better skills and attitudes of the learners. Pedagogy helps the students to get a better understanding of subjects and courses they have undertaken. Further, it encourages the students and makes them capable of applying their personal learning outside of the classroom. In this way, the well-thought, modern-day pedagogy is a complete interrelation of the concepts and ideas, along with the ways of teaching the students. It also indicates that these practices have direct involvement with the student’s achievements, results, and skills developed after following the approach.
The more inspired and engaged pupils are, the more they will consider the subject matter carefully, facilitating a stronger learning experience.
Younger generations are surrounded by technology, so Ed-tech can be a strong classroom differentiator to keep them engaged, but it must support the pupils’ needs and learning outcomes.
Today, school education often involves the use of technology and a variety of teaching styles. Many of today’s modern teaching methods, however, are an evolution of more traditional learning techniques.
The key to enhanced and holistic learning is by taking principles from both traditional and modern teaching, and combining them for a fully immersive learning environment.
Ultimately, learning should be fun. It should inspire activity and stimulate discussion points among pupils. Quizzes, for example, can facilitate active participation by pupils.
