this week we learned about babies’ social and emotional development. I learned ways to communicate effectively with infants and toddlers as well as different temperaments and how to deal with them. This connects to my goals because I want to learn ways to help the baby not only in the school environment and this is definitely something caregivers should know before raising a child. I was alsos able to see what stages a baby learns something which helps me be able to see more from their perspective which is another one of my goals.
I learned about self regulation and the manners in which it impacts the social emotional and cognitive development of children . In addition , I learned the logistics of how to make a child more self aware in certain scenarios that ignites intense emotions within them . Lastly , I learned how to effectively respond to a student struggling with self regulation and the manners in which a child’s culture has the ability to impact the way a child exhibit self regulation .
On the other hand , I learned strategies to deal with children of all different temperaments.
This will help me reach my goals because I learned various techniques to manage the different scenerios that may arise within my classroom . I am also able to hold myself accountable for the way I respond to situations regarding my children’s emotions .
In this module, I learned about self-regulation and children’s social-emotional cognitive development. How at different ages they start learning something new and recognizing faces, and the different temperament a child can have and what I can do to help them depending on their personalities and temperaments. This connects to my goals because I want to be able to adapt to any kind of behavior, the easy-going kid, the emotional ones, or the ones that give you a harder time because if am able to self regulate myself and adapt to their needs they would be able to develop good social and emotional skills and they would learn and know that my class is a safe environment for them to explore and be themselves.
I learned that self-regulating a child is very important because it can teach them to pay more attention to their surrounding and themselves. culture plays a major role in self-regulating because it can affect how the children do or don’t learn to self-regulate emotion/ expression. Also forming a relationship with the children can help them further on. To help the children better understand others feelings it is helped by explaining in a calm voice to them.
What did you learn in this week’s modules for ECE 209-Lecture and Seminar that connects to your goals?
I learned in this week temperament and social-emotional development. I earned how to help children when they become upset. The children need extra time to wrap up. In addition, self-regulation is important because when adults respond gently to children’s emotional anguish and give them a voice, they learn that their feelings are controllable and meaningful.
How will the material from these modules help and support you to meet your goals?
This connects will help and support me to meet my goals because it will help me to understand children’s emotional skills when I will work with them in future.
