Questions you have with which your colleagues may be able
to provide help and support.
I plan to present my final advocacy plan with a power point
presentation. Can I insert the
presentation in a work document so that the instructor can open it as a power
point presentation? I use the computer
a lot but am not familiar with inserting presentations into papers.
Resources and information you are seeking.
I have several sources for social/emotional development but
does anyone have any other resources that they have found useful in the
past? Currently, I am pulling
information from Conscious Discipline, this book helps teachers teach
the child through a whole curriculum and by using the positive discipline
techniques in this book will build their social emotional skills needed to
address the issues of today’s world. Creative Curriculum for Infants and
Preschool, help teachers to build a high-quality program for their students
by utilizing the standards of the profession.
These standards use indicators that can help identify an early childhood
program of high quality. CSEFEL, the
Center on the Social and Emotional Foundations for Early Learning provides
information on the social emotional development and school readiness of young
children. NAYEC, National Association
for the Education of Young Children, provides information for young children
from infancy through school readiness.
Resources and/or information you have found helpful and
insightful.
Pulling information from CSEFEL, NAYEC, Conscious Discipline,
and Creative Curriculum for Infants and Preschool has given me a lot of
very useful information. Using these
three together helped me pull together a great research paper and hopefully a
good Advocacy Plan. Social/Emotion development
must be nourished from infancy and continued throughout a child’s development
according to Dr. Becky Bailey, Conscious Discipline. These four resources stress the importance
of using developmentally appropriate practices with children in order to build
their self-confidence and social emotional development.
I too use a Power Point to present my plan and had to save the Power Point and the paper portion of the assignment separate and before submitting to Blackboard I just attached both the and submitted them. I didn't know how to attach them as one file either. I hope this is ok but I'm not sure our instructor is going to like this. I hopes you get the answers your looking for. I'm familiar with Conscious Discipline and we use it in the center that I work in. There are wonderful resources available. Have you included parent education in you presentation? Not only do educators need t have this information, but so do parents.
ReplyDeleteHi Kathy,
ReplyDeleteYour topic, social-emotional development, is another one of the early childhood topics of great interest to me and I considered writing my paper in 450 on this topic. I would suggest to you to research Vygotsky and his approach to self-regulation, an important milestone in social-emotional development. I attended a workshop at the NAEYC conference a couple of years ago on the Vygotskian approach to self-regulation and it has been one of those workshops that just sticks with you. I was so impressed by it that I wrote papers for fun, yes for fun, summarizing his approach to this so that I could present it to my fellow teachers. Best of luck to you!!
Kathy I found some information online that might help you. Let me know how you make out.
