(3)IDENTIFY AND EXPRESS EMOTIONS
“Young children deal with many of the same emotions adults do. Children get angry, sad, frustrated, nervous, happy, or embarrassed, but they often do not have the words to talk about how they are feeling. Instead, they sometimes act out these emotions in very physical and inappropriate ways. For example, when Maggie’s son was frustrated, he threw the puzzle piece and the puzzle.” Please follow the link below for further reading:

Hello Nicole,
I got this quote from one of your web links (WHO), “The first three years of a child’s life are a critical period. They are characterized by rapid development particularly of the brain and thus provide the essential building blocks for future growth, development, and progress (WHO). If children with disabilities are to survive, flourish, learn, be empowered and participate, attention to ECD is essential.” This is so true!

      Lucy,
      I love that you included a link about expressing emotions. So many times in the classroom we tend to forget that children are small and do not yet have the tools to express themselves with words or being able to walk away. Thank you for sharing this.

    Hello Lucy,

    I appreciate the effort you put in to your resource page. I enjoyed the information your additional resources provided and how you placed a picture to help paint a visual for your viewers. One of my fave post is teaching a child how to express and identify emotions. When that is never taught it puts a child in a very bad space and their reactions to things aren't normally good. Us as educators have to find a way to incorporate those teachings in our classrooms.

Perspective on Diversity and Culture

Image
  My take away from the definitions of culture and diversity from the people I talked to. They all believe that customary beliefs, social forms, and material traits of a racial, religious, or social group are linked to culture and diversity. As discussed in this class, culture encompasses religion, food, what we wear, how we wear it, our language, marriage, music, what we believe is right or wrong, how we sit at the table, how we greet visitors, and how we behave with loved ones. In other words,   The world is filled with people who have different beliefs, religions, traditions, and ways of living. Yet, it is within our differences that we can find beauty. Both in educational and professional environments, cultural diversity benefits everyone. It paves the way to better problem-solving, more empathy and compassion, deepened learning and approaches the world from various perspectives. People also connect to their cultural or ethnic group through similar food patterns. Immigrants often u

The Whole-child Approach In Education

                                        The Whole-child Approach In Education      The 21st-century challenges require a new education method to prepare children for academics, careers, and society. Research, practice, and common sense affirm that a whole-child approach to education will promote and equip students for today’s and tomorrow’s demands and opportunities by approaching students’ whole needs through students’ shared responsibility, families, schools, and communities. The whole-child approach to teaching promotes and feeds all areas of children’s development and learning–from social-emotional and cognitive skills to literacy, math, and science understanding, and is a powerful approach as preschool children transition to kindergarten. It encourages children’s learning and thinking by being responsive to children’s perceptions, cares, and skills, empowering them to develop their natural inquisitiveness and enthusiasm to explore and learn, says Costanza (the Cheif academic offic

Equity in Early Childhood Systems—A Closer Look

Image
                                         Takes a Big Heart to Help Shape Little Minds Schools have always been interested in fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). DEI has taken on renewed meaning as student populations become more diverse in every way regarding race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, language, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, special needs, and more. Research shows that children and adults alike thrive in diverse, equitable environments. In this episode of Grow Kinder®, host Dr. Tia Kim speaks with clinical psychologist and social-emotional learning researcher Dr. Mylien Duong. Dr. Duong speaks about the importance of building educators’ self-awareness in equity work and how educators can use perspective-taking and equity audits to help improve DEI in education. She describes how she applies David Foster Wallace’s idea of “seeing the water” to these practices. Some fish don’t know they are in the water(systemic barrier)- the most obvious or imp
