“Past experiences always influence new learning. What we already know acts as a filter, helping us attend to those things that have meaning (i.e., relevance) and discard those that don’t. If we expect students to find meaning, we need to be certain that today’s curriculum contains connections to their past experiences, not just ours” (Sousa, 2017) . “Yet teachers teach with the hope that students will retain the learning objective for future use. So, if the learner is ever to recall this information in the future, it has to be stored” (Sousa, 2017) . As an early education teacher making meaning of things within the lesson is usually new information for my students. Most students have never been in a preschool setting so most new learning is occurring first time in my classroom. Over the past 7 years of being a kindergarten teacher I have had conversations with collegeuages about my previous students and how what they learned in kindergarten they have applied it to new learning in the upper grades. The correlation is mainly why I choose to cite the following quotes from today’s reading that lets me know that the information was in fact stored for later learning. Both the quotes I chose from the reading works hand and hand with how I support meaning of new material that not only lives with the student’s years later but has meaning to why they learned the information and make connections to their own learning. Negative and positive memories can be both a good and bad thing when it comes to memories of long term effect. For example, someone goes through a terrible breakup and they hear that one song that makes them relocate that relationship, so therefore the negative memories take over those positive memories. That same example can be used for losing a loved one, you don’t dwell on the negative memories you had with that person, but a particular song plays on the radio and you are taken back to the fondest memories of that loved one which results in positive memories. In retrospect there is a slight difference between the two given the person and scenario at the time. Reference: Sousa, D.A. (2017). How the brain learns. (5th ed.). Thousand Oaks, CA: Corwin.
