Supporting Early Learning And Development

Nutrition is a key component of an individual’s healthy well being. Many factors have a significant effect on nutrition and it is important to continuously maintain a balanced one. Having a good nutrition is one of the main defenses for an innumerous amount of illnesses and diseases that can harm the body. One would ask, “What is nutrition per say, and how do we maintain the balance of it?” Nutrition is defined as “the sum of the processes by which [a living thing] takes in and utilizes food substances.” (Merriam-Webster, 2011). It is the responsibility of each individual to assure the consumption of enough nutrients to nourish the body and to be cautious of harmful toxins.

Curriculum plays a significant role at school as it guides the structure and process of the teaching and learning experience. Every school will have its unique curriculum, usually guided by the national curriculum, which reflects the school philosophy and guides its strategic plan in teaching. The purpose of this essay is to explore and critique the Early Years Learning Framework(EYLF) curriculum by identifying how this curriculum links to City of Kingston- Edithvale Family and children center’s philosophy and Good Start’s strategic plan.

* Curriculum – to make children aware of being healthy and safe in all aspects of life

Children should be aware of the importance of healthy eating and exercise as well as the meaning of “right and wrong” and “stranger danger”. Still we will not be able to protect them from all the potential dangers in the world but if any problem happens, pupils have to be aware that help is at hand, either from teaching staff in the school or from external organisations specialised in certain fields.

As a teacher, you have the opportunity to share the knowledge you have gained in this course with your colleagues to support a collaborative approach to shared health, nutrition, and safety goals. For your Final Project, you will create a presentation for other educators in your center that is focused on the development of a program valuing health, nutrition, and safety.

Children in school gain academic and other life skills which engages them to understand various situations including knowledge about health and safety and how to protect themselves from any possible danger. Teaching staff plays vital role in making them aware about their own safety.

This research report presents an analysis of and conclusions drawn from the experiences and perspectives of two educators that work in the early childhood setting. The main objective is to identify key elements and issues in relation to the families, diversity and difference. In particular how an early childhood educator implements, different approaches to honour culture and diversity, and to advocate for social justice in an early childhood settings.

Early education for children is very crucial as it helps shape up the foundation of their knowledge and behavior development process. Children begin to develop the sense of curiosity from the age of two. And from age 2-8, children go through a very crucial period of mental development, which shapes up their future mindset (Grayson, 2016). Early children education (ECE) has been listed as the number one priority of the National Association of Education. The teachers or educators at nursery and primary level are responsible to for developing young children’s sense of knowledge and education. In this paper, we will assess the roles and skills that are vital for an early childhood educator. Moreover, the paper will also present a

In order to make sure that every child’s health is the main priority, the child’s health and their well-being may be conserved by stress management programmes and also making sure that healthy eating programmes are applied within school.

The Early Years Learning Framework have recognised cultural competence in the areas of principles and practices the frame work has identified ‘Respect for diversity’ (Commonwealth of Australia, 2009, page 13) as a key principal and ‘Cultural Competence’ (Commonwealth of Australia, 2009, page 16) as a key practice.

Principle: children develop and learn in different ways and at different rates and all areas of development and learning are equally important and interconnected.

If relevant, any other information about the focus learner that will influence your instructional planning (e.g., other needs and strengths in areas such as motor skills or communication)

Thesis Statement: Early childhood education has many benefits and there is the potential for many significant outcomes if universal preschools were put into place.

Health, safety and nutrition are three of the most important factors to consider when raising a child. In other words, every child should be raised with proper nutrition, good health and safety as possible, allowing him or her to grow with a great well-being. Something that I've learned about this class is that in today’s fast-paced world where the child’s safety and health issues are rapidly growing, more than fifty sites online present health and safety guidelines for the public to consider. These websites given to us has really opened up a door for me to look into my own life as well as my child's development. Another thing I've learned
