Poets through the ages have been esteemed as possessing the ability to perceive the ordinary in extraordinary and innovative ways. Poetry captures the essences of human emotion and experience and imbues them with further significance by the literary techniques that typify poetry as the language of art. In her poetry, Gwen Harwood explores many thematic concerns that resonate with her readers regardless of their contexts. The universality of concepts such as memory, inspiration, childhood education and the cyclical, yet final nature of death are transformed by Harwood’s poetry to create fresh perceptions of the continuity of experience and provide permanence to these transient elements of humanity through language. The poetic techniques employed by Harwood effectively communicate distinctive aspects of her themes while allowing them to remain universal.

A poet relies on his feeling to convey the current situations that they are in.

His theory is that children learn new skills by being guided by cares and parents. An example of this is when a parent sings ’pat-a-cake’ to their child and helps them clap their hands until the child can clap their hands themselves. He believes that every new scene or interaction is a learning experience to children that they must be guided through until they know how react correctly. Staffs support this by giving support if children are having difficulty managing a particular task.

They tend to learn advance things, such as reading, coloring, identifying shapes, reading the letters of the alphabet. By doing this, many children grasp the new information and they use it in their everyday lives. For example, when they are taught the ABCs most children would continually sing the song everywhere they go, therefore it would get instilled in their minds and they would always remember it. Also they learn how to acknowledge and understand their body parts and the basic functions it carries out. In daycares many of the staff provides nursery rhymes that would label their parts of the body, for instance 'heads and shoulders, knees and toes' this nursery rhyme enables the child to understand where parts are on their bodies and caregivers also tend to expand on what the function is.
