Actively encourage and support learners in becoming independent. Will lead learning “guided” groups, modelling concepts and language that the adult leading the learning has used. Will alter an activity or change the apparatus if an activity does not meet the learners needs to enable them to achieve or exceed the expected outcome. Are acutely aware of learners capabilities/prior learning/understanding and plan very effectively to build on these. The areas that I have assessed as “good” and therefore need improving are: Enable learners to access resources appropriately – I feel that I need to make more time to be able to show the children how they can get the best from the resources that they have available to them.
Where necessary I adapt my style of communication and use appropriate communication systems that meet the child’s needs and abilities. Children of a young age will have different levels of requirements and attention that that of an older child. When children start in our Reception classes they need lots of support and reassurance in order for them to adjust to the school environment and develop their independence. When communicating with younger children
1.2 DESCRIBE WITH EXAMPLES HOW TO BEHAVE APPROPRIATELY FOR A CHILD OR YOUNG PERSON’S STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT? First impressions are important for everyone not only child but for parents and people we work with. Children of different age will need varying levels of attention; some may be more advanced than others. Children with “special needs” will need more help. When we work with infants at nursery to help them with basics vocabulary and numeracy we need to choose media that will help them understand.
These authors believe different factors affect the performance of a student, but also agrees on the toll it takes on their whole life. In "the secret to raising smart kids", Dweck explains his theory of how being raised with a certain mindset, effects hoe people perform not only in class, but in life as well. Lines (24-26) explains how being raised with a "fixed" mindset will carry with a person throughout their life. This mindset causes people to believe they only know what they were born knowing and there's no reason to try to learn or attempt anything else (115-117). There is, however, another mindset called "growth".
Learning is a progression by which we gain knowledge, skills and an understanding of abstract concepts. You start learning from birth and the learning process continues through formal schooling and even right through to adulthood. It is important a individual to understand their learning strengths and challenges, as it can support a person to be more successful. For example if a individual recognizes their challenges this could help a person to understand why certain things are difficult. So in this case a person might work very hard to develop strategies to be successful in spite of these challenges.
They also agree that children's speech is an important part of their cognitive development and that it occurs in distinct stages. Piaget's views differ from Vygotsky's in several different areas. Piaget believes that learning occurs from a succession through stages of cognitive development through the implementation of maturation, discovery methods, and some social communication that occurs through assimilation and accommodation. Piaget's view of learning is based on an understanding of construction modes. Individuals construct their own meaning
Unit 209 Support children and young people behaviour How you could be an effect role model to children and young people In your placement in the school I believe I could be an effective role model by setting a good example to the children I work with. As studies have shown, children learn more from copying behaviour around them, rather than just being told what to do. Children are mostly influenced by teachers, parents, friends and support workers. All the adults should be aware of their own behaviour and mannerism, and the effect could have on the children. Children can pick up behaviour and attitudes from adults from around them .For this reason, I feel my appearance must always be presentable and my clothes should be appropriate to wear in a school setting.
Children develop a sense of their gender as they grow older. The image in their head comes from parents, teachers, people in society, and the toys they play with. Bryjak and Soroka also claim “Preparation for a future adult role often entails learning about activities deemed appropriate for members of one’s sex. Learning to be an adult, thus, translates into learning to be a proper adult women or adult man” (214-215). With gender-biased and stereotypical views, society sets forth the mold of a “proper” adult.
Theorists Robert Sternberg and Howard Gardner argue that children who can make new connections and draw something new from them is a type of intelligence. It is important to offer children lots of first-hand experiences so that they can develop knowledge and draw from their own experiences. Social Models – These theories look at the environment in which the children are learning and the adults they are supported by. Social models link to cultural approaches and role modelling. Children learn by observing and imitating and so watching and being supported by adults who encourage and work creatively by being flexible in approach, solving problems and painting and drawing with them can help develop their creativity.
The diagram below gives examples of the areas of learning and development and shows the links between the way in which your child learns and what they learn. As a mum or dad, how can I help with my child’s learning? All the fun activities that you do with your child at home are important in supporting their learning and development, and have a really long lasting effect on your child’s learning as they progress through school. Even when your child is very young and is not yet able to talk, talking to them helps them to learn and understand new words and ideas. If you make the time every day to do some of the following things with your child it will make a real difference to your child’s confidence as a young
