EYMP 5 1.2 Explain how speech,language and communication skills support each of the following areas in childrens development:learning,emotional,behaviour,social Learning – Language is needed to understand concepts, participate in problem solving, and to develop ideas and opinions. Language enables a child to express their thoughts and feelings, and to think about abstract notions helping them to make sense of their world. •Emotional – Children need to be able to express themselves, if they have difficulty doing this it can have a damaging impact on their self esteem and identity. This can lead to a lack of confidence. Expressing their emotions and talking about them can help children to understand acceptable social behaviour.
We may regularly work with children in small groups or on a one-to-one basis. We are likely to be the person who the child feels more comfortable to talk to when the rest of the class are not around. It is important that we know how to recognize when abuse may be happening and what action we should take. While we must avoid jumping to conclusions we must always be observant. We may notice physical signs or changes in a child’s behaviour, or the child may hint or disclose to us that they are being abused or bullied.
Children can take responsibility for their actions, to feel good about their achievements and understand that their feelings and behaviour are linked. Also pupils know that it is acceptable to have certain feelings and emotions. Managing feelings – Children can become more able to manage their feelings, using strategies to think first before using inappropriate actions. Enabling them to understand what feelings affect others and how to use them appropriately so not to hurt others. Children will learn how to calm themselves, managing anger and aggressive feelings.
Support learning activities 5.1 Explain the Importance of Evaluating Learning Activities. We are evaluate learning activities in order in to see what is and isn’t working. This allows us to evaluate how the learning activities are been received by the children. Evaluation is important as it helps out when planning and helps you to think about the learning that has taken place. Spending time going through the learning activities and seeing how children have responded to a certain task or question, can really help change it for future activities.
CBT often uses training for parents and caregivers as well. It is important for caregivers to understand the effects of PTSD. Parents need to learn coping skills that will help them help their children. Play
Another value of a multi-professional approach is that they can safeguard children when abuse is noticed or suspected, the multi-agency team comes together to take any necessary steps to protect the child and can also support the family. The value of working in a multi-professional approach, when working with parents is by providing and supporting families with what they need. For example if families are living in poor quality and poorly maintained housing which may have damp in, this can cause diseases for instance asthma. This will affect the children’s learning and development as they will be ill or taking time of school. As Maslow’s hierarchy places needs in order which is most important and the first basic physical need is shelter which is priority.
Some may have a low mood and physiological support will help with this. Treatments will be provided and advice. The support will be given by looking at their emotions, pressure and situations. From this a support can be given in ways to cope without drugs. The youth centre has children from different backgrounds so we work to identify risks of assumptions and
1.1 Explain why effective communication is important in developing positive relationships with children, young people and adults. Why effective communication is important Effective communication is important because it helps to improve the understanding between pupils and their adults. It also helps the staff at schools to communicate their feelings about students and plan future work. Sometimes if the communication is not very good between the adults in a classroom, it can affect the pupils. Children can notice the bad communication and that would not set a good example for growing, young children.
However in a situation like this practitioners need to recognise that when the child needs to be referred to others. Sometimes children’s behaviour could show some signs that they need some extra support. This means that a practitioner needs to recognise when children need to be referred to another colleague or a professional. However a practitioner needs to encourage positive behaviour and manage children’s common behaviour. Specific types of unwanted behaviour that should be referred to others: • When pupils are a danger to themselves and/or others • When you are dealing with a difficult situation on your own • If pupils are not carrying out your instructions and you are not in control of the situation • When you are not comfortable dealing with a pupil, for example they are behaving in a threatening manner or behaving unpredictably • When an incident is serious enough to warrant the involvement of a senior member of staff.
Explain the strategies and methods that can be used to support children/young people and their families where abuse is suspected or confirmed. I will be explaining strategies and methods that can be used to support children and young people and their families where abuse is suspected or confirmed, with these strategies it help prevent more cases in abuse and can give families conformation on whether their child is a suspected case of abuse. Empowering Children. Means to give a child power and telling them their rights as children, explain to them right from wrong. This will help now and the short term because if they have been abused and the abuser was telling them that it is normal and not bad this strategy will open their eyes to
