Assignment 3: Effective Practices

 

In order to be an effective early childhood professional, it is vital to pay close attention to the strengths and needs of every child. Children respond to teaching strategies and learning experiences in many different ways, so it is essential to have an arsenal of strategies and effective practices that can be used when the time is right. However, classroom meetings and democratic classrooms are great ways to support positive learning environments, positive classroom cultures, and create caring classroom communities where every child can thrive. The dynamics of each classroom group will vary, so you will need to research several approaches and effective practices for creating a strong classroom community for the children and families with whom you work.

For this Assignment, you will consider the role of strategies such as classroom meetings in supporting positive learning environments.
