In the classroom, the children should be given the space and freedom to explore what suits them the best. For e.g. do not limit boys to playing with car toys as opposed to dolls in dresses.]]> 2022-11-04 08:38:39 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369782170 https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369785423 Children are exposed at a young age on their expectations and their own sense of their gender because of gender identity. This has actually put the wrong idea/stereotype for them. E.g girls have the ideas that they can only do and have a certain career when they grow up as most career are seen as fit for boys, limiting their potential]]> 2022-11-04 08:42:20 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369785423 https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369795126 The most important take-away that i could use in the classroom is to allow children to let them play with all the toys available and let them develop their own ability to choose their "dream job" we should not limit them and let them and add our gender stereotypes on them.]]> 2022-11-04 08:54:51 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369795126 maymyatsoe23 https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369799785 Young children decide what they want to be when they grow up, based on gender identity. In school, children should be provided  a lot of opportunities to explore and to find what they are really interested in regardless of gender stereotypes.]]> 2022-11-04 09:00:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369799785 https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369803080 Gender identity is started at a very young age. The family, school, society, media and environment have an impact on how children think about their gender identities (e.g., Choosing their clothes, hairstyle, occupation, and daily activities).]]> 2022-11-04 09:05:13 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369803080 https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369803373 "When individuals are reinforced for behaviour that is consistent with laws and social conventions, they are likely to repeat that behaviour." This is Skinner's theory which is an important thing every educator/parent needs to look into in children. It is important that rules and regulations that are set for children, be followed and not taken granted for. This will help children learn that rules that are set have to be followed closely and this will grow in them which will help them in their future. ]]> 2022-11-04 09:05:33 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369803373 https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369805142 It is important to develop morality in children as it helps them to distinguish from right or wrong. Children who are not taught about moral values will continue to behave inappropriately and thus may lead to consequences such as being jailed (crimes), divorce (if caught cheating) etc. ]]> 2022-11-04 09:07:40 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369805142 https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369807110 Children are exposed to and influenced by gender stereotypes through the people around them, their environment and the media. Gender stereotypes will limit the choices of children. So we should not impose gender stereotypes on children. Instead, encourage them to look beyond the stereotypes so as to broaden their learning experiences]]> 2022-11-04 09:09:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369807110 https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369807884 In school settings, children should be given room and freedom to explore themselves. Gender stereotypes should not be enforced or "programmed" into children such as the toys they play with, the color that they can used. There is no limit in who can use pink and blue, all gender should be exposed to colors and types of play. However, environment and life experiences in the future will shape them to be who they are.]]> 2022-11-04 09:10:45 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369807884 https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369818129 2022-11-04 09:22:15 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369818129 https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369818851 The ways to support child's moral development. Tr - be a good role model for children and use effective strategies to make children get moral education. Let children know what is right and wrong as well as consequences, also. Praise or encourage the children for initiating the good moral behaviors. ]]> 2022-11-04 09:23:06 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369818851 https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369823551 Allow children to be who they are. Let them choose the things they like and want to do in a free and safe space that minimises the effects of gender stereotypes. 
It is important to have a free and equal classroom environment with no prejudice, that focuses on the interests and feelings of each individual child. 
This way, they can grow to their potentials and society can continue to see improvements on the reduction of restrictions gender stereotypes bring.]]> 2022-11-04 09:28:14 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/ykmknnwy6aett5y/wish/2369823551
