Being in my specific classroom has helped me focus on the development of students through one year difference. There are a pair of students who barely made the deadline to be put into kindergarten this year. These two students developmental differences from the rest of the class are very apparent from all of the other students. For starters they are physically smaller, and less developed. Mentally they are noticeably behind as well. These two students have not yet developed their proper abilities when it comes speech, listening and cognitive processes. I asked my CT about this and she said that their test scores reflect the same patterns. They lack in certain areas that other kindergarten students who made the kindergarten class by a wider margin. I find this specifically interesting because of how much we talked about early development throughout our course. I am able to see small areas of what we talked about and although I cant be sure that they directly relate to our course content, I can infer and try to make my own hypothesis about why these students may be lacking in the classroom.
