Temat: school visit feedback

I received this from Dominika Musielok, the pre school teacher at the British International School of Cracow

It shows clearly what can be achieved with a pre school visit to a company

"Hello,

First of all, I would like to thank everybody involved in organising the Nursery visit at PMR. Trips like that, where the kids meet and interact with other people as well as learn about different places are not only a great experience for that age group, but also they meet a lot of the educational objectives for all learning areas in the British curriculum for 3 and 4 year olds (Knowledge and Understanding of the World, Communication, Language and Literacy, Mathematical Development, Creative Development, Physical Development, Personal, Social and Emotional Development).

Let me list just a couple of them:

- Finding out about past and present events in their own life and in those of others;

- Identifying the use of everyday technology;

- Sustaining attentive listening and responding to what they hear and see by relevant comments, questions ar actions;

- Capturing experience using various materials, tools, imaginative- and role-play, movement, etc.;

- Forming good relationships with peers and adults;

- Developing confidence to try new activities, initiate ideas and speak in a group of people;

- Understanding that there are codes of behaviour for groups of people;



It worth mentioning that the educational benefits as the ones above, are meant to be 'hidden' and delivered to the kids in activities taking various, but as attractive as possible a form and I am sure we have achieved that

Thank you again on behalf of the kids and myself.

Regards,

Dominika
