Examining codes of ethics

Children is a unique and valuable stage in the human life cycle.

 
 
 

•  "Our responsability is to provide care and education in settings that are    safe,healthy,nurturing.we need to support children development and learning,promoting children's self -awareness,and physical well- being."(NAEYC,2005)

If you work with children you need to have patience, have passion ,and always give as better as you can in knowledge,love,listening ,playing,being a good support for the children in the early years and helping in their good development.

• "To use assessment instruments and strategies that are appropriate for the children to be assessed,that are used only for the purposes for which they were designed,and that have the potencial to benefit children." (NAEYC,2005)

          I love to work with children with age appropiate materials that they can manipulate and  thus become easier in learning.

                                 

 

• The cooperation and collaboration of the family is important in the children development. "Is a good idea to share information about each child's education and development with families and to help them understand and aprresiate the current knowledge base of the early childhood profession."(NAEYC,2005).

Give issues to the parents to help at home to their children in their development ,working with them in some areas of their development,share ideas with them that support the children in the development of fine motor skills : for example playing with lentils using the two gripper fingers to put each one in the bottle, for the gross motor skills: run, jump, catch a ball with your hand ,kick a ball.this are some of the activities you could give like ideas to the parents that may be helpful in developing good skills.

An Overview of the Policy Agenda for Infants and Toddlers

Why focus on babies?

Research shows that experiences in the earliest years of life play a

critical role in a child’s ability to grow up healthy and ready to learn.

Indeed, during the first three years of life, the brain undergoes its

most dramatic development and children acquire the ability to think,

speak, and reason. Our knowledge of the early years has been

significantly enhanced by the incredible advances made by

neuroscientists who have found that the way a baby reacts

emotionally to how he or she is treated releases chemicals that affect

his or her brain’s structure and functioning,

Definition of

Early Childhood Inclusion

Early childhood inclusion embodies the            

values, policies, and practices that support

the right of every infant and young

child and his or her family, regardless of

ability, to participate in a broad range of

activities and contexts as full members of

families, communities, and society. The
 

desired results of inclusive experiences for

children with and without disabilities and

their families include a sense of belonging

and membership, positive social relationships

and friendships, and development

and learning to reach their full potential.

The defining features of inclusion that

 

can be used to identify high quality early

childhood programs and services are access,

participation, and supports.NAEYC. (2009, April). Early childhood inclusion: A summary. Retrieved May 26, 2010, from http://www.naeyc.org/files/naeyc/file/positions/DEC_NAEYC_ECSummary_A.pdf









Grandparents—whether living near or far—enjoy a special relationship with their grandchildren. Grandparents are the ones who are often willing to read the same story over and over, play a silly game, or say “who’s there” to a knock-knock joke more times than they can count.

These resources, funded by MetLife Foundation, were developed to support grandparents in whatever role they play in the life of their young grandchildren. While many grandparents provide occasional care for their little ones, more and more grandparents are serving as the primary caregiver for their young grandchildren.
