Realities of teaching grade-1 experiential activities at primary schools in Cao Lanh city, Dong Thap province

Abstract

Studying Grade-1 Experienctial Activities at primary schools in Cao Lanh City, Dong Thap Province, we surveyed, interviewed teachers and superintendents, and observed some working classes in practice. Apart from positive results, we detected  shortcomings regarding the coordination among the involved people, and the student management in running experiential activities. Thereby, we suggest that superintendents and teachers should better understand the significance of Experiential Activities and integrated instruction, identify and shape the activity formats, boost professional meetings, mobilize the educational resources appropriately as well as utilizing student supervising sheets for better teaching Experiential Activities Grade 1.
