The Effect of Play-Based Learning on Phonemic Awareness of Kindergarten in Teacher’s Perspective

Abstract

The study aimed to improve play-based learning in schools by addressing the problems that make it hard to use. Finding out what teachers need in terms of professional development based on age, gender, experience, and level of schooling is the first step in making and testing unique training programs. The plan calls for a study of the current play-based learning materials and creation of new materials to fill in any gaps. New guidelines and workshops will also be used to improve how play-based learning is integrated into the curriculum. To help with and keep an eye on the performance, progress will be tracked, and teachers will be given ongoing help. Regular tests will be done on play-based learning; the results will always be used to improve professional growth and support tools. The group has people with different amounts of experience, including some teachers with more experience. But most of the teachers are still new to their jobs. The fact that most respondents are women shows an imbalance between men and women in the group. Some people had been teachers for as little as five years and as long as nine years. A lot of the people who answered were new to the job. The people who answered have had a lot of different kinds of schooling. Many of them have better degrees, like master’s and graduate degrees. With such a range of work and school experience, it’s clear that these teachers have different information and points of view. Most teachers agree that play-based learning exercises are the best way to help kindergarteners become more aware of phonemes. Many teachers agree that these tasks help kids get better at hearing and understanding sounds, like recognizing letter sounds, blending sounds, segmenting sounds, rhyming, and listening. Despite a few minor disagreements, most people agree that play-based learning is an excellent way to help kids learn to read and write. This wide backing means that strategies based on play are seen as practical and helpful for helping young kids learn essential reading and writing skills.
