Standard 2: The second strategy is to observe children carefully and closely to see their interests and needs. For example, If a child is looking for a book and learning material. Then, the RECE assists the child and provides the book of the child’s interest to support learning.

Standard 3: The third strategy is to have all the information of children’s medical condition, special needs, disabilities, allergies, medication requirements and emergency contact information. For example, if a child gets a fever, the RECE will check the emergency contact information from the list and call the family to pick up the child for medical care.

Strategy 1: I will be equitable, inclusive, and respectful of diversity while communicating
with children and their families. Attentive listeners give children and their
families encouragement and support by reacting to their ideas, concerns, and
needs. For example, I will build a caring and responsive relationship with
children and their families by respecting their cultures, values, and beliefs. 

Strategy 2: I will observe the kids see their individual and group needs and interests. For example, I can give spontaneous learning opportunities to learn about their cues and curiosity to understand children's needs. 

Strategy 3: I will take the necessary steps to ensure that the environment conforms with applicable safety, health, and accessibility laws. They examine and oversee the learning environment and take responsibility for ensuring that children are not exposed to potentially hazardous conditions. For example, I will show children how to wash their hands properly and why it is necessary to keep our hands' germs free. 

Standard 1:  

Caring and Responsive Relationships Standard refers to best practices from RECE. These practices include making the child feel safe and accepted. One strategy that RECE can use to support the regulation of behavior and positive interaction with others is by helping children to regulate themselves. Therefore, this standard also refers to having good communication with parents and respecting diversity in families. For example, if there are families who wish not to celebrate any activity for religious or personal reasons, they should respect their decision. One common event that a lot of parents might not wish to participate in is Halloween because it may not align with the religious beliefs of the family and thus this must be respected. 

 

Standard 2: 

Curriculum and Pedagogy Standard refers to the individual observation of children to obtain their needs and interests. A good strategy from the RECE should be in collaboration with children to implement new learning opportunities that support those needs. In addition, the RECE will document all the experiences during the activities to reflect and assess the children in their evaluation. For example, if the children are interested in learning about snakes. They can ask questions about snakes such as what do the snakes eat?  Where do snakes live? etc. The RECE will take notes and plan an activity according to the children's inquiries, interests, and cues that will help to expand their knowledge and help them to learn and understand more about the reptile. After the learning opportunity is implemented, the RECE will document with photos, video, or an observation about what the children have learned after their inquiry. 

 

Standard 3: 

Safety, health, and well-being refer to the necessary care that the RECE must take to reflect best practices. These practices are done by working collaboratively with children, family, and colleagues to ensure that the environment feels safe and inclusive. It is important to understand the needs of the children so you can take the necessary steps to make sure that they feel safe and comfortable. Some children may require more accommodation because they might have disabilities or sickness. For all this information the RECE should be used as a strategy to find information about the health and safety of the child. The second strategy will be to ensure that the environment for both inside and outside the daycare is safe. For example, before taking children outside to play, the RECE should always be checked minutes in advance to make sure the area is clear of dangerous objects. It is also important to make sure that children are following their routines, nutrition, and physical activity to promote a healthy child. The RECE can also work in partnership with parents to ensure best practices are used to assist in the development of the child at school and home. 

I can create a safe learning environment for children. And build a trustful and responsive relationship. When I value relationships in my classroom children feel active, communicative and secured.

Strategy 2

I will build a relationship with children and know about their interested areas, goals and beliefs and plan programs according to that. A holistic approach is applicable here. I can implement reflective enquiry-based learning in the classroom.

Strategy 3

I can practice a wellness approach for children. I will teach and help children to grow up with an attitude of wellness.

The first strategy is building positive relationships with children and their family colleagues. When we as RECEs work together we become effective in the development of the child’s wellbeing. RECEs should be respectful of one’s culture and be open to diversity in the classroom.  RECEs should have open communication with each other be it through face to face or via emails. Giving feedback on the child’s developmental stages and not only discussing the positives but also the negatives. 

Standard II: Curriculum and Pedagogy 

The second strategy is to observe children and to identify their needs and interest. I would do this by various types of observational methods for example; anecdotal records, running record or by simply jotting down what I see the child is doing. I would also follow the child’s cues and set up developmentally appropriate activities based on the child’s interest and developmental stages. 

Standard III: Safety, Health and Well- being in the Learning Environment.

The third strategy would be to promote healthy activities inside and outside the classroom. Speck with parents and get to know what the child eats at home and how we incorporate a healthy nutrition diet for the child. Respecting each individual families and their views on food and nutrition. I would try to implement both indoor and outdoor play with natural concrete materials for the children to play and interact with. At morning circles, we can have songs and dance to help with physical activities. An exercise or stretching routine can also be added for to enhance growth and development. 

Strategy2:  For the second strategy, the surrounding setup is a key for children learning. For example, children learn from their environment. They are curious and always willing to explore what they see, so if their environment is well set and organized, the teacher can easily observe and identify children's interests and cues. Strategy3: It is significant to collect all information regarding each child’s health and need to parent for their healthy well-being. For example, having all their medicals health concern and any other specific need they may  have will help meet that child's needs better.
