AT 1 Plain English Elaboration - This assignment consists of an essay with five (5) parts
What do I need to do?
To prepare this assignment, you will need to undertake the following:
1. Synthesise the reading and lecture materials along with tutorial information into a 2500-word essay that explains
the ways in which young children’s ideas, thoughts
, and feelings
are created and interpreted through the Arts (visual/ media, dance, drama and music). Provide clear and appropriate links to academic literature, theories and research, write.
Fundamentally, our thoughts are maps representing and corresponding to things that our brains have either perceived with our senses, felt with our emotions, or formed as an action plan
(e.g. forming an image of reaching for a ripe fruit on a tree branch). A thought is a representation of something. A representation is a likeness—a thing that depicts another thing by having characteristics that correspond to that other thing. For example, a picture, image, imprint, or mould of an object is a representation of that object. https://www.psychologytoday.com/au/blog/finding-

2. Prepare the essay using the following structure;
Introduction (Approx 200)
Part 1 The arts in young children’s lives.
(1) This section should cover the Principles and Practices of EYLF V2 and Focus on Outcomes 1, 3 & 4, along with the National Quality Standards and explain the ways the arts help children create ideas, create thoughts and create feelings (Approx 200
). (2) Demonstrate an informed understanding of the nature of the Arts as relevant to young children (Approx 200)
.
Part 2 Young children’s meaning making through the arts.
(3) Consider how the Arts provide
young children with a range of expressive languages through which they communicate and develop understandings of their physical and social worlds (Approx 350
). (4) In what ways do children make meaning of their world through the arts? At home? In the community or in the early learning centre? For example, they may be engaged in different types of arts activities at the early learning centre to those that they may experience at home. You need to provide examples that show you understand children’s artistic expression (Exchanges, observations interactions and communication) with each other and with adults (Approx 350)
.
Part 3 Refining young children’s artistic knowledge, skill and expression.
Based on the EYLF, (5) Explain the skills and knowledge that you need to extend and refine with young children? (Approx 200) (6) How could you use a socio-cultural approach to extend and refine artistic knowledge, skill and expression. And in what ways could ‘emergent curriculum’ help? (Approx 400) (7) Explore the ways in which Australian Indigenous perspectives may be authentically and respectfully embodied and promoted through two Arts (choose two of the four arts to discuss here) (Approx 400).
