Everyone has they own beliefs and personal attitudes, but as a practitioner it is best for the children and setting if you follow the regulations set by the setting and also the parents wishes because you could influence a child down a path which isn’t conductive to their wellbeing. It is also
Using Operant Conditioning in Raising Small Children Raising children is a tough responsibility. A parent’s main goal is to keep their child healthy, safe and to make them productive members of society. To prepare your child for adulthood, they will have to learn how to behave as you feel is appropriate in today’s society. Each parent has their own way of trying to accomplish this goal. A majority of the time they attempt to reach their goal by using different methods of operant conditioning based on their own style.
In addition, they have to be focused on the right elements and not be distracted by anything. He also believed that children would perform actions they had previously seen adults do and they learn a lot by ‘mirroring the task.’ If parents are modelling bad behaviours, negative self-talk, unwillingness to try something new then the child will do the same as the parents. In order to empower children you have to talk to them, listen to them and respect their values and feelings which make them feel valued. You have to encourage them to make decisions for themselves and be there when they make mistakes and discuss the decisions they have made. Positive reinforcement can help in building good habits and reducing unwanted habits.
Although we, as teachers, may use developmentally appropriate practices to teach wellness concepts to the pre-school children in our care, if there is not a follow-through at home it will be hard for the child to continue these habits. Nevertheless, we still need to try to implement these wellness concepts into our everyday teaching with the hopes that they will sink in. Our book tells us, “Children have their own way of learning. Some are visual learners, some are auditory learners, and some learn using a combination of skills and abilities to absorb information.” (Sorte, Daeschel & Amador, 2011, p.38) Knowing this, we have to find appropriate ways to teach all of the children about
EYMP 1 Task 2 3.1 As a trainee practitioner i need to show the knowledge and understanding of how partnership with parents is important to the success of each individual child in the setting. Promoting an effective bond between the parents and professionals, this provides a source of strength throughout their time in the setting. Consequently practitioners should be very aware that there leading role is very different in the Childs life, compared to their own parents, carers etc. Practitioners roll is to be able to show a more compassionate bond with the child. Leading on Carolyn Meggitt also believed that “Practitioners need to develop constant, warm and affectionate relationships with children, especially babies, but should not seek to
Grading in Special Education by Susan M. Brookhart looks at a different grading strategy. She thinks students in special education need to be graded based upon their goals in their Individual Education Plan's (IEP). Brookhart expresses that grading students in special education at a lower level then everyone else is unfair to both students in special education and to those not in special education. This is an interesting article/book for parents to read because it gives them some ideas of questions to bring up to their child's case mangers on different ways to grade their children in special
We have age limits and restriction on many things, but why does are education system expect these young kids to make the right choices, ask for help and develop good study habits on their own. Our education system needs a new approach to resolve these issues. Teachers and parents need to be held responsible, for how well these kids do in school. We need come up with a new plan so these students aren’t left lost and helpless. Flunking students can be used as a positive tool by our education system.
This Is because parents and carers views are all based on what would be best for the child as they know their child better and understand them to so whatever decision they would take would be right for the child. For the parent/carer to do this they must have some sort of trust built in the teacher so that without hesitation they could take any problems or issues that they may have relating with the child to the teacher. For example if a child has not been sleeping properly due to family problems at home and feels sleepy at times the parent would need to tell the teacher about this so that they are aware about the situation and could keep an eye on the child. This information would have to be kept confidential as it has only been discussed between the teacher and parent, if the teacher keeps this to herself then the parent would have gained trust in the teacher would be able to talk to them about anything however If the teacher decides to tell another member of staff about this and that member of staff approaches the parent and talks to them about it the parent would feel upset at the teacher as to why they didn’t keep it confidential when the parent clearly said they wanted it to be, this would make the parent to not be able to trust the teacher again and is part of a poor practitioner. As well as the parent trusting
Neo-Scholasticism would force students to memorize and learn how to be mental disciplinarians. Neo-Scholasticism has pros can cons like any other philosophy. However, in its entire context of teaching students how to be mental disciplinarians would be great for today’s society. Often, students simply need discipline and structure in their life. Society thrives on the philosophy of allowing children to do what they want when they want.
Through my research it seemed as if the struggles presented were unexpressed to the ‘other side’ (parents or children), which then causes familial conflict. However, if parents and children actually knew and were explained about the types of trouble each other was facing, they would be better informed and would also be able to make educated decisions as to how one should act accordingly. What’s more, the family dynamic would then become a learning experience for both parents and children, instead of an intrapersonal struggle kept to oneself. This would lead to a healthier family unit, and give children a support system to rely on which would decrease the occurrence of bad
