The room was calm and the children all seemed happy and content with their new key workers. Charmaine and Joyce will be closing monitoring and supporting the staff to ensure this transition period is a smooth as possible for parents and children. 2-3 The environment has much improved offering children a wide variety of learning experiences that are allowing the children to explore paint water and sand and cosy areas for relaxation that also have a wide variety of books for the children to look at and mark making resources. Staff are continuing to develop their planning to ensure it is responsive and relevant.
Aparna after each session spent supporting with the children, Aparna reports to the teacher which includes information about how the children behaved whilst working. If Aparna have had to use any sanctions, Aparna informs to the teacher. , if children have behaved and participated well, or produced some good work, I also include the rewards I have given them e.g. stickers, showing their work to the head teacher and five minutes playing outside, similarly informing that child that she/he would have to go back to his classroom instead of joining in with the planned activity if continued to behave in a negative way.
The children in a school are valued, with an environment that fully encourages and celebrates their learning and progression and how they are developing. The provision of a safe and secure learning environment for all its pupils should be provided through recognizing the importance of welcoming diversity and equal opportunities. The atmosphere within a school should be positive, with this being reflected in the attitudes of the staff and pupils, all caring for and taking pride in their surroundings and in how the learning journey of each pupil takes
Explain the process of managing risk and how it applies to Forest SchoolThere is increasing debate around the idea that children need to take more risk in their play. The prevalence of indoor, gadget based play and screen-time as downtime means children are spending less and less of their day “playing out”. Even if they do go out to play children are very rarely given a freedom to roam. In fact according to a recent study the distance a child is permitted to wander from their home has decreased by 90% in the past 30 years.1This has become such an issue that an all party parliamentary group on a fit and healthy childhood recently examined the problems and potential solutions and published their report “Play”. Among other conclusions were the statements that children should engage in ....
Spaces must tolerate movement and noise generated by the child. Children, like adults, are influenced in how they feel and behave by the total environment and the physical setting in particular. Adults notice order and cleanliness; children notice small spaces to crawl into or materials to make something out of. A large open area may be an invitation to run if it is of the right scale and proportion; but it also can create sense of fear and loneliness if the proportions are beyond in relation to children. The physical setting acts as a deciding factor- it can support and encourage a child’s curiosity or it can make the experience of exploration much harder for those who are physically incompatible to keep up with the
This all comes down to care as it is a practitioner role to care for a child’s individual needs (whatever that may be) and their future leading to the next year or so. Last but not least, as well as caring for a child’s health, it is important to maintain their safety within the environment and potentially (by law) out of the
All schools need to have policies and procedures as they provide rules for staff and pupils to follow. They provide a common understanding and agreement for all involved. They help to ensure the school environment is a secure and safe place. There are many policies and procedures in place for staff to keep the school a safe and stimulating environment. There are policies and procedures to ensure the safety of all in a school such as the health and safety policy, safeguarding policy, data protection policy etc They also help establish standards and expectations for an effective school.
It is important that when practitioners create the indoor environment they take into account of the children and young people’s interest, age and their individual needs. This will help the child to feel valued when going into the setting. The practitioner can plan activities within the environment as this can help a child to learn new skills. A practitioner can do this by using the indoor or outdoor environment, this could be by allowing the child to go on bikes. This will help the child to develop their physical development without them knowing and using play.
Unit 3.4 Promote enabling play environments Task 1 Types of environment and how they support play One of the different types of environment found in an early years setting is the physical environment, this is what the children see when they walk through the door. The set-up of the room is what motivates the children to look for something that appeals to them and makes them want to explore. The environment needs to be warm and welcoming but inviting, attractive and interesting. This can be achieved by using lots of different colours, materials and textures; by having lots of displays that show the children’s work or displays that are for the parents, offering information and advice. The physical environment should include
Children are extremely vulnerable and can be exposed to all different kinds of harm on a daily basis. Due to this practitioners have to do their utmost to protect them from any risks while the child is in their care in the setting. Potential risks to children in the setting include: • Physical harm, either from accidents and falls during play. • Bullying and physical abuse by peers.
These settings do this so that they can provide the best for each and every child in their care, I believe that the environment does have an impact on the way that child and young people learn as not only are they learning from the environment around then but also the people that they interact with as well. The environment must be one that promotes a welcoming vibe as this will make the child feel more comfortable within their-self therefore they will branch out to others in the setting, this would not only allow them to make attachments to others but help to extend their own learning as well through the environment and attachments that they have made in the
Developing positive relationships by using effective communication is an important part of working with children and young people as well as working alongside adults. Positive relationships can benefit everyone in the classroom situation, it can encourage children to feel secure and able to participate, and to enable everybody to understand what is expected of them in the situation. Using positive communication is also a good way of being a positive role model to children and young people. If everybody feels happy and comfortable in a situation it helps to boost their ability and want to interact with each other.
When working with children it is important that practitioners know that they have a duty of care towards them and the safety of the children is of paramount. According to the UN convention on the rights of the child (1989): children have the right to learn and develop, they have the right to be protected from harm and make choices. Children learn and develop by making choices, exploring and experimenting within the environment that surrounds them but they do not always posses the skill and judgement to make safe choices and decisions at all times. Therefore it is the responsibility of the practitioner to identify any potential dangers, and make the decision on when it is safe to allow the child to undertake an activity or make a decision.
Explain the importance to children’s holistic development of Speech, language and communication This development is important for children’s holistic development as this will help the children to socialise and help them express what they like and need, this will get them to have more sense about the world. If the child can communicate this will help them with their confident and self-esteem levels as they can talk about how they feel.it is important for children to use their own language skills and not to listen to other all the time and this could put their development back. Adults should praise children a lot so they have the encouragement try new things but it is important you adults to give them feedback so that they can learn from right and wrong.
