1.1 Explain What Is Meant By A Range Of Speech, Language And Communication Skills

Think back to when you were younger, do you remember the different emotions you had? Did you know that you learned a lot of your emotions from your parents or caregivers? Infants and toddlers go through many different stages of emotional development. Starting at birth where they show little to no emotion, up through toddler-hood where their emotions become more defined is a critical stage in there development. Infants begin to develop basic emotions at birth such as happy, sad, fear and anger. As they get older to start to understand and respond to the emotions of others whether it is their parent’s or caregiver. Around toddler-hood children learn about self-conscious emotions and when it is appropriate to feel guilt, shame, pride and

Managing feelings and behaviour: children talk about how they and others show feelings, talk about their own and others’ behaviour, and its consequences, and know that some behaviour is unacceptable. They work as part of a group or class, and understand and follow the rules. They adjust their behaviour to different situations, and take changes of routine in their stride.

Encouragement is an important tool for helping children develop in their language and communication skills and should be used as much as possible. Adults will need to give children the opportunity to take part in speaking and listening for many different purposes and situations and this can be achieved either in a whole class or small group setting Language is important in these roles and we should encourage them by asking them to talk about their own ideas.

Equality- The dolls come in a range of skin tones, cultural backgrounds, and with a range of disabilities. This promotes equality by getting children to realise that we are all diffferent in some ways but the same in others and we have to be treated equally but as individuals. Children who have been shown disabled dolls often don't notice the disability until it is pointed out by either the teacher or one child. This shows that they don't see anything different about their 'new friend.' The same thing happens when children see a doll with a different skin colour to their own, children don't see colour, especially not as a problem. Persona dolls help children to understand diversity in a way that relates to them. The practitioner would ask children

During the hour to hour and a half that I’m in the room we start by cleaning up the room of the toys that were out during play time. Then we have them sit on the floor and a short lesson on how to ask for help or being nice or why you should listen to your parents; we usually have something interactive for the kids to join in while learning. After that they watch an interactive

This section talked about children expressing and regulating their feelings through play. They can sometimes express these feelings during imaginary play. Having children play together helps them develop control of their feelings while you guide them sometimes at a young age. It will help them develop empathy and understanding for others feelings. My favorite part of this section was Crafty Cards. Crafty Cards is making cards for your friends, family, or even pets. I would adapt this in my classroom by having them make a card for people in the classroom during the friendship week of school. This is a great activity for children between the ages of 3-5. This activity is helping the child move out of the egocentric stage of their

Additionally, consistency and predictability may be met by routines ( e.g. mealtimes and snack times at set hours, returning toys after playing with them, toothbrushing, nap time, a tidy-up song) which add to the child's sense of security, predictability and their sense of belonging and connectedness.

He is both tired from jet lag, and he is irritated by the long waiting lines.

All kids are different, and each and every one of them are dealt with differently when it comes to supporting them depending on their emotions. There are different steps that I oftenly use in order to handle an angered kid. For example, talking, giving comfort, and taking a walk can often help control a child who is feeling irritated. In contrast, dealing with a joyful kid is obviously managed differently. Some steps that are taken to handle a joyful kid is to compliment, play, and support them in order to maintain their

Turkel (1998) contends that all dolls are implied as transitional items. They are intended to help kids accomplish some freedom, show youngsters about societal parts, and, at the point when the dolls look more established, speak to how the tyke ought

Routines teach young children responsibility and independence by allowing them to accomplish tasks on their own which can ease parents’ minds. Toddlers from ages one to four all the way to adults feel a bear hug sensation when their life is foreseeable and clear. “When adults provide environments that feel safe, children learn that they can trust others to take care of them and meet their needs, so they become free to relax and explore their world” (Routines). It’s noticeable that toddlers do not truly grasp the perception of time. Their minds do not operate by time like teenagers and adults, they operate by the order of action. Routines can alter a child’s mindset by helping them realize when and how certain things are supposed to happen.

According to Rachel Mork’s article How to Choose Effective Preschool Classroom Games posted on http://www.life123.com/parenting/education/preschool-classroom-games.shtml, she suggests 5 trips to effectively preschool classroom games. First, you’ll want to think about what skills you want to raise to kids. Second, you should know yours student and adjust the game to fit the course. Third, find a substitute if the kids don’t like game. And that must make all children participate, interesting, funny. Fourth, you should change your tactics continuously because every child doesn't has the same learning style. Finally, you should use a simple game better than a difficult

Acknowledge children's feelings. Say something simple such as “You look really upset;” let children know you need to hold any object in question.

Mattel’s Barbie have always faced problems with parents of the young children who play with Barbie such as lowering children’s self-esteem. Mattel tried to address the problem by creating three new body types for Barbie. The question that is relevant; does the original Barbie harms children’s self-esteem and will the new Barbie address the issue? My goal in this paper is to show evidences of Mattel’s Barbies affecting children’s self-esteem by connecting three main reasoning of how Barbie lowers self-esteem and also the opposing view beside Mattel.

Child’s play is very important. There are many different ways to go about playing with your child. I will be doing a workshop that focuses on the important of child play.
