A Narrative on Universal Design for Learning

As a kindergarten teacher it is especially important to create a learning environment that supports all students. In my kindergarten classroom I have set up my classroom in such a way that will aid learners of various levels. I believe that this step is very important in kindergarten. Many students come in to kindergarten and have never been tested, or identified as special needs or TAG. Kindergarten is often their first experience in an educational environment and therefore it is important to have a classroom set up to aid multiple learning environments. Another important reason to set up a kindergarten classroom for multiple learning styles is that kindergartners need to be moving constantly. They don't do well sitting for long periods of time so setting up a classroom for multiple learners needs to be done with this in mind.
