- Contributed to view that a well-developed sensory environment is essential.
-John Locke has inspired me by his idea that children are a "blank slate." Ever since learning about him last year his idea of that has always intrigued me and made me feel more like as an educator it is my job to fill them with all this fun new learning to help them become successful. ]]> 2020-09-26 15:00:37 UTC https://padlet.com/emilyrogers11/x5pis2z7cunjiklg/wish/781438704 emilyrogers11 https://padlet.com/emilyrogers11/x5pis2z7cunjiklg/wish/781445813 - Believed that children develop through play, and that guidance, direction, and the prepared
environment were critical in supporting appropriate play experiences.
- Developed first kindergarten.
- Friedrich Wilhelm Froebel's idea that children develop through play is something I agree with 100%. Children are not supposed to sit at a desk and just listen to a teacher. They need interaction, play, and need to use their imagination. He is also pretty cool for developing the first kindergarten!]]> 2020-09-26 15:10:08 UTC https://padlet.com/emilyrogers11/x5pis2z7cunjiklg/wish/781445813 emilyrogers11 https://padlet.com/emilyrogers11/x5pis2z7cunjiklg/wish/781451938 - Children’s development proceeds through a series
of predictable stages—although the rate of development may vary, the sequence does not.
- Preoperational stage- - Begin to use symbols, e.g., language, drawings, make-believe play, to
represent objects and events.
- Jean's theories of the stages a children go through have opened my eyes more to what children should be doing at the age when they first enter school. It has made me realize even more the importance for children to play. It has also opened my eyes more to the thought that even in psychology they can't set ages of when children develop because it  is different for everyone. ]]> 2020-09-26 15:16:43 UTC https://padlet.com/emilyrogers11/x5pis2z7cunjiklg/wish/781451938 emilyrogers11 https://padlet.com/emilyrogers11/x5pis2z7cunjiklg/wish/781456989 - Education should be experiential and focused on the
needs and interests of children, i.e., children’s interests
should be springboards for involvement, skills, and
subject matter.
- Provided the foundational thinking for child-centered curriculum and child-centered schools.
- John Dewey is another person who I find has influenced my way of thinking about child education. Focusing of the child's interests is a huge part in helping them learn. You need to keep the child interested in order for them to be fully invested in learning. Again, it is super important as an educator to focus the child's learning around them.

- The child’s family is the first and most important teacher, and therefore is an essential partner in the educational process.
- Urie Bronfenbrenner is one of the people I have listen that I had not learned about yet. After reading some more about him, his ideas and theories about education are very similar to thought I have surrounding ECE. Children start learning the minute they are born, and before they get to school they are learning from their surroundings, such as their family and communities. Because of that, the parents are a huge part in a child's learning and development before school. ]]> 2020-09-26 15:33:59 UTC https://padlet.com/emilyrogers11/x5pis2z7cunjiklg/wish/781465218
