1. The new teacher should be by your side all day long as you are talking through your whole schedule - do not let them just sit on the side and watch.
     "This is how we wash hands for breakfast."
     "Then you have a child pass out the plates; you spoon the food."
     "We sing this song to transition to playing outside."
     "When we go outside to play, we walk out this way."
     "When you change the kids diapers, make sure to do this."
     "It is important to know..."

2. Next choose a skill that the new teacher could practice doing with you there.  
     "I've walked you through how we wash hands; how do you feel about doing it tomorrow?"
     Watch them and ask them how they felt about it.  Tell them what they did right and any corrections needed.
     Add one skill at a time allowing them to take over more and more each day.  After you are done training them, they should be able to run the daily schedule even if you are not there.]]> 2022-08-10 19:21:43 UTC https://padlet.com/ehsccp/hp5ubh9b6kkl4a4x/wish/2258445316 ehsccp https://padlet.com/ehsccp/hp5ubh9b6kkl4a4x/wish/2258446410 ITERS

  • Have bags or baskets for the kids to help clean up.
  • Let the children choose a song to clean up to or play a song to cue them.

    • How much time is the child spending outside?  Are they getting their full outside time?  Is there a way they can get extra time?
    • Give time warnings. Not just one, but several.  The child may need warnings for  5, 3,2,1 minutes and then being near him when calling time to line up and giving two choices. "Okay, it's time to go in now would you like to hold my hand or help me carry..."
    • Is it possible to allow one teacher to stay on the playground with the one child?  Ignoring the unwanted behavior and praising the other children for lining up with positive attention and comments.  So that would look like: teacher warning message to go in to class. "Time to line up;" the children in line would get the positive messages. "Wow look at this line, look at Sarah standing so tall, look how calm Max is standing." This would need to be continued for each child in the line. Use descriptive language noticing vs. good job to all for lining up. If the child followed this, they would need his descriptive, positive comment quick and reinforced often. In walking down the hall way making sure you really are continuing to focus on all the positives. If the child didn't come in, you would still give all that positive talk to the children that did line up. Then the other teacher would engage the child - paying attention to eye contact and emotions and being on his level and then explain " It's time to go in, I have to help Miss Molly keep the classroom safe; you can walk in or I will have to carry you."
    • Make it a race. "Oh I bet you can't beat me..."
    • Making a sandwich. Each child in the line can pick a piece of the sandwich that either could be something visual like a necklace around their necks (laminated picture of bread, veggie toppings, lunch meats, condiments). You could also just use it as a conversation piece "oh what part of the sandwich are you going to be? It's funny to listen to the responses and then react. "So the sandwich was a pickle cupcake hotdog sandwich. Oh I've never had a sandwich like that before; I think I would like blue bread." Just being silly and fun with it.
    • Get or create a social story to read to the class to teach them about the expected transitions
    • Use a walking rope to hold on to

Start with a structure.  Have a transition song or a cue to let children know it is time to gather on the carpet.  Just practice this 5 times in a row.  For the whole week just practice going to the carpet at the transition.  If the children are having trouble with where to sit, help them.  Assign them a spot with their picture or squares or little mats to sit on.

    2. Prereading  Show all the children the cover and have the children describe what they see.  Can you guess what this book is about?

    3. Read the book upside down.  Yes, you can do it.  Show the children the pictures as you read.  Have each of the children point to something on the page.  Let the children take turns turning the pages.

    4. Ask questions - what is going to happen next?  

    5. Start small.  If your children are not used to sitting for circle time - try to have them sit for one book. Sing a song and then be done. Eventually add a finger play or another book. This will help them build on their skill of attending.]]>     2022-09-27 17:48:37 UTC https://padlet.com/ehsccp/hp5ubh9b6kkl4a4x/wish/2316081464     Sound and Infants ehsccp https://padlet.com/ehsccp/hp5ubh9b6kkl4a4x/wish/2340449815 Children and babies are particularly at risk for harm from excessive noise exposure. Their ear canals are not fully developed, and a baby’s auditory faculty is more sensitive than an adult’s. That’s why it’s vital to prevent noise exposures and create safe environments for them. As a rule of thumb, babies should not be exposed to noise levels over 60 decibels. The noise level recommended for hospital nurseries is actually lower, at 50 dB. For reference, a quiet conversation is between 50 and 55 dB and an alarm clock is 80 dB. However, with sound, things are not as simple as they seem. Sound is measured in decibels, which is not a linear scale. It is a logarithmic scale. This means that a 100-decibel sound is actually twice as loud as a 90-decibel sound.]]> 2022-10-14 13:17:58 UTC https://padlet.com/ehsccp/hp5ubh9b6kkl4a4x/wish/2340449815 Why do they dump ehsccp https://padlet.com/ehsccp/hp5ubh9b6kkl4a4x/wish/2340452453 Schemas in children’s play was first identified by educational psychologist Jean Piaget
    A schema is a repeating pattern or behavior which is part of a child’s learning process. 
    Transporting: picking things up, moving them and putting them down or dumping them.
