Workplace Reflections - Applied - Baker Lake 2025 by https://padlet.com/arcticcollege/o844oyrksd09yvpo How do you think ECE prepares children for life (or school)? en-us 2025-06-17 17:41:10 UTC 2026-07-24 17:52:23 UTC hello@padlet.com Preparing children https://padlet.com/arcticcollege/o844oyrksd09yvpo/wish/3686550319 We are preparing them for education, have them ready for kindergarten and so on. This will give them an easier time for their grade teachers since they’ve already learned to have a routine. We are preparing them to create relationships, care and respect for others. Having routines are very important as they provide security in themselves, learning to be independent, have less anxiety and more confidence in themselves. Routines help them have better social skills and they will know about controlling themselves, making it easier to adapt to new challenges. Having a “day care baby” or a “favourite child” and helping them through every single step will not help the child build structure.

When the children attend daycare, they learn who is who from their community, which creates a sense of self and belonging by being around other children and adults. They learn to be independent, be respectful of their peers and teachers. Being taught by ECE at a young age is a great privilege, all the ECE work for the common good, to mould children into good human beings. ECE also teaches children to manage their emotions appropriately, it fosters emotional stability and resilience. When they’re taught in daycare, they’ll be better prepared for kindergarten. They’ll have learned routines by the time they start school.

Us ECE workers teaches from routines. Like either learn how to listen during circle time or just simple basics. Learning how to potty, brushing after eating. We make sure everyone is doing well in daycare. Us ECE workers teaches from how to share or be nice to one another. Once they start going to school, they will know some parts of what to do in school. Especially socializing with others.

ECE helps children get into a routine, and learn the basic things they need to do in school.

  • Physical Domain; we get them to do fine motor skills through arts and crafts. We also let them play in and outside (weather permitting) of the daycare as they run/crawl around, we get them to dance and that goes to Social Domain; they all interact with each other which will help them not to be shy when they meet new people. They may want to talk to anyone.

  • Cognitive Domain; they will know when to line up when they need to for certain things like washing their hands and brushing their teeth. They know when to clean up before it is circle time after doing free play. They will know how to use a pair of scissors and how to use a pencil.

  • Emotional Domain; they will talk to you on how they feel about things or on what has happened to them, they also will tell you that they are happy that they finished their projects.

  • Language Domain; we read books to them as they are learning to speak with their voices and ask questions when are curios about something.

Also with arts and crafts to help for fine motor skills. Getting up early morning to help with their sleeping schedule and healthy snacks/lunch for their health and growth. ECE helps a lot with school preparation. We have schedules and rules to follow, we treat with respect and love, that also teaches them to be kind to one another, teach them boundaries within themselves.

All domains involved, language, cognitive, emotional, social and physical development. It is taught by educators at the daycare centre.

They’re more prepared cognitively in an elementary school setting also.
