Space to Grow: Creating a Child Care Environment for Infants and Toddlers (2nd Edition)

jlinde08 — 2024-07-17 01:28:44 UTC

The powerful influence of environments on infants and toddlers is described. Very young infants are limited in their ability to move away from an environment or to change one to their liking. The video demonstrates eight qualities for caregivers to consider when they are planning an environment for the care of infants and toddlers: health, safety, comfort, convenience, child size, flexibility, movement, and choice. The second edition updates health and safety information, addresses the needs of children with special needs and emphasizes the importance of relationships in infant/toddler care. Also included with this DVD is a DVD Booklet.

Dr. Sandra Duncan: How to Design Inspiring Early Learning Spaces

jlinde08 — 2024-07-17 01:30:40 UTC

When most people talk about designing an early childhood education program, they mean the curriculum, the funding, or the program. Not Dr. Sandra Duncan. When the Design Consultant for Early Childhood Classrooms and Adjunct Professor at Nova Southeastern University talks about designing, she means it literally.

Inclusive ECE Environments: Classroom Spaces that Welcome All Children

jlinde08 — 2024-07-17 01:39:05 UTC

The physical environment of a classroom plays a significant role in children’s learning. A space that is warm, inviting, and inclusive helps children to feel safe and cared for — so that they can be comfortable exploring, trying new things, and learning new skills. Thoughtfully designed learning spaces communicate to children that they belong and that they are valued members of the classroom community. In this article, we explore a few ways that early childhood educators can create inclusive learning environments that are both accessible and welcoming to all children and their families.

What is Whole-Child Learning (and Why Is It Important?)

2024-07-17 01:40:24 UTC

Centering the needs of students beyond academics has been observed to be vital to both their academic and personal success. Consider Dr. Gardner’s “Theory of Multiple Intelligences,” which proposes that there are eight different types of intelligences: visual/spatial, verbal/linguistic, logical-mathematical, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalist.

Building Positive Learning Environments for Young Children Starts with You

jlinde08 — 2024-07-17 01:40:54 UTC

When we think about early learning environments, what comes to mind? Often, it's things: alphabet puzzles, books lined up neatly on shelves, blocks, water tables, and more. But the most important part of a positive early learning environment is you. Teachers and family child care providers—all the education staff working with the children are what matter most. Though staff roles may look different across various types of settings (e.g., home-based, center-based, family child care), you remain the most important component of a responsive environment.

The Effects of Outdoor Play on On-Task Behavior in Preschool

jlinde08 — 2024-07-17 01:49:04 UTC

It is generally understood that giving preschool children time to play outside every day supports their gross motor development and gives them opportunities to manage their emotions and engage in unstructured social play with their peers. But how important is outdoor play for children’s academic learning? This video highlights findings from a small study that suggests that outdoor play affects children’s on-task behavior, which has significant implications for their learning.

Universally Designed Learning (UDL) environments are designed from the onset in consideration of the widest diversity of learners possible so that all children benefit. The UDL environment is designed by considering cultural, linguistic, and ability diversity among all children. These environments provide for UDL practices that assist in developing inclusive early childhood environments to ensure equitable access and meaningful participation through flexible, engaging, and creative approaches within a developmentally appropriate setting
