Hello fellow students,

What possibly made some learners uncomfortable during these activities? / Why were some learners uncomfortable?

• Self-esteem and confidence- Dance is social and visual. This is where I as teacher must be able to sing and dance in front of children this is not difficult for me because I know they won't judge or look at me in a strange way.
• If the song is not familiar with the kids, they may struggle.
• You will never know about their cultural background (may be against their cultural beliefs).
• Not everyone likes dancing and singing it is not fun for some children.

Can you think of ways to address these issues in future? What will you change?

• Children who do not like do dance can have other roles. In a concert or play these learners can be used as props like trees or flowers. Also - instead of dancing they can rather use an instrument for background music. It is important not to exclude others.
• It would be advised to use music learners are familiar with.
• The activity should always be age appropriate.
• Teachers must be aware of learners’ cultural beliefs and respect them.

How can we accommodate diverse learner profiles in our classrooms? What must we beware of ?

•  In a case of diverse learners, learners must always be accommodated by participating in activities that fits to their beliefs where everyone is involved.
• Always compromise.
• Try to use songs that are familiar.
• Don't let learners feel ashamed or ashamed.

Thank you 

Enjoy your week !
