  1. Best Practices are Goldsmith & Theilhiemer (2015) Home visits and phase-in help infant instructors in a variety of ways. They can, for example, form a bond with the child’s parents. In addition, teachers and parents can share information. Finally, teachers can have a deeper understanding of their students and determine the best way to assist them. Home visits and phase-in aid families by allowing them to form ties with their children’s teachers. Parents can relax knowing that they have a specialist with whom they can discuss their child’s upbringing (Goldsmith & Theilhiemer, 2015) When families are unsure about what to do, teachers can provide direction. 2015 (Goldsmith & Theilhiemer).

    I’d like to work in a phase-in newborn school because it would allow me to better interact with the children and their families. I would have the chance to expand my expertise. As a future infant teacher, I’d like to conduct home visits so that I can gain a better understanding of the child’s background, the parent’s relationship with their child, the family’s activities and routines, the family’s culture, and beliefs, and so that I can better support the baby’s learning development while taking into account the parents’ aspirations and requirements.

  2. This week I read the article Block (2014) that talking about teachers conducting home visits. This practice is very important because here you are able to learn about the child’s routines at home as well as how they communicate at home. Knowing these things help you become a better teacher because now you can cater to what the child needs and what the family wants for their child.
    This works for families with infants because it is important to raise the child how the family wants and that starts from a young age. Children are always learning more and teaching them early will help them not have confusion as they grow up.

  3. one important practice that I learned is conducting home visits and having/creating relationships with the child and family. To make sure that that the child and parents feel welcome and valued to show them that we attend to the child needs. Talking with the parents about the child interests and dislikes to know more of who the child is to get a better look at them.

  6. In the article Goldsmith-Theilheimer-2015 it explains how the phase-in process works and which it takes place at any point in the year, whenever a child and family are ready to enter a program. The phase-in process conclude of making home visits to the child’s home , this process can be done in two ways either in person or an intake interview at the center.

    What I learned on the article was that during the phase-in home visits the teacher learn valuable information about the child which is helpful to them in providing the child with high quality care and also help them feel more content. I think that this process is crucial because the teacher will learn about the child from whom knows he/her best their family members.

    I will definitely use this method whenever a family is ready to enroll their child. This method will give me the opportunity to go through the expectations and foundations of the center and I can learn from the families what they’re hopes and expectations they have or hope to accomplish. I believe the phase-in process is important because it will also allow the teacher to develop a relationship with the families and reassure them that their child is in good hands while in their care at the center.

When a teacher is familiar with a child’s home environment. They are able to apply it within the classroom which creates a safe space for the child to feel comfortable and as though they have something to relate to .
