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.
For this presentation, imagine you are part of a team of teachers at an early childcare setting working toward accreditation through the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). As part of this lengthy process, you have been tasked with the creation of a professional development training for teachers focused on enhancing effective health, nutrition, and safety practices at your center. Use the knowledge you have gained in this course, as well as practical application and research to support your presentation.

Social, Emotional, and Behavioral Resources. 1st Post Due by Day 3. When we think about overall well-being, it is important to consider our children and families. For this discussion, you will explore several social, emotional, and behavioral resources that could be shared with children or families. You may find a preschool website with a game about good choices, or you may find a book about using kind words. You may also locate a website with parent information on helping children who have difficulty with detachment. You may use the Ashford University Library, the Internet, or your local resources. These resources can be videos, books, podcasts, websites, games or publications. After you have researched these complete the following:
Provide a summary of the resource you found to support positive social development.
Provide a APA citation for the resource
Suggest how specifically you will use this resource in the classroom or as a home support.
Provide a summary of the resource you found to support positive emotional development.
Provide a APA citation for the resource
Suggest how specifically you will use this resource in the classroom or as a home support.
Provide a summary of the resource you found to support positive behavior development.
Provide a APA citation for the resource
Suggest how specifically you will use this resource in the classroom or as a home support.
Your post should be a minimum of 250 words and include three APA citations.
Guided Response: Review several peers’ posts. Review the recommended resources as well as Chapter 9 in the textbook. Locate a part of the chapter that connects directly to the resource. For example, if the shared resource is related to mental health, you may write, “This resource is aligned to the information in Chapter 9, Section 9.4.” You will then further explain how the resource and the textbook are alike. Be sure to include proper in-text citations if you quote material from the textbook.

Challenging Classroom Behaviors. 1st Post Due by Day 3. Chapter 9 of your course text addresses the following topics:
Behavioral health as it pertains to a child’s set of behaviors that are in response to early experiences and actions of others.
Emotional development as it pertains to a child’s increasing ability to express emotions appropriately.
Social development as it pertains to the growth of a child’s capacity to have relationships and to work
cooperatively in the future (Groark& Song, 2012).
Create a visual and written plan for a parent bulletin board that you will place on a large wall outside your classroom which parents will see when they enter your facility.
For this discussion, the written plan will include:
a. An explanation of behavioral health, emotional development, and social development at your specific
developmental level. Be sure to identify the developmental level in the subject line of your discussion. For example, your subject line will read as one of the following:

ECE 214 Week 4 Discussion 2 Safe Environments Preschool Teacher NEW
Safe Environments. 1st Post Due by Day 3. For this discussion, think about the information presented in Chapter 8 regarding safe and supportive indoor and outdoor environments. In addition, think about your personal philosophy of learning and choose one developmental level (e.g., infants, toddlers, or preschoolers). When thinking about developmental levels, consider your future career aspirations. Some of you may want be to be an infant and toddler home daycare provider, a family specialist for Head Start, or you may want to be a kindergarten classroom teacher. Please use the subject line of your discussion post to state what you wish to be in your future role. Then for your discussion, attach four pictures that you feel show elements of safe and supportive physical environments that you wish to create in your future role. Two of the pictures should be indoor environments and two of the pictures should be outdoor environments. These pictures can be from environments that you have access to, Microsoft clip art, or they may be from the Internet.
For each picture, your discussion should address the following questions:
What specifically do you like about the features of the environment?
What specific elements make this a safe environment?
What specific elements make this a supportive environment for the developmental level and future role you have identified?
You may attach the pictures directly to your discussion, or you may attach a Word document in which you compile your pictures and reflections. Be sure to include a reference to the textbook and at least one outside resource to support your ideas with justification.
Guided Response: Review several of your classmates’ responses. Please respond to at least two peers, further analyzing their pictures. Be sure to support or respectfully refute elements of the design based on content knowledge. Please think about considering licensing requirements as part of your response.

Health and Wellness Appraisals. 1st Post Due by Day 3. You are a teacher in a 4-year-old classroom and begin each day with your daily health and wellness check. You notice that a child who is dropped off looks very tired and is uncommonly quiet as she walks into the classroom. She was dropped off by bus so you have no additional information.
Given the above scenario, choose one of the following possible causes for the change in the child. Please indicate the cause you selected in the subject line of your discussion post.
Sickness/Illness
Trauma
Abuse
Oral Health Issue: Tooth ache, poor oral health
Nutritional Concern: Inadequate nutritional intake, food allergy, food intolerance
Hearing Concern: Ear Infection, ear ache
Vision Concern: Eye infection
Social-Emotional Issue
Examples of some of these common situations are described further in Chapter 7. After you select one of these as a possible cause for the child’s change in demeanor, use your imagination to develop it further discussing what you may see when you conduct your observation of the child. Be mindful to detail what you might look for and how you will document your observations. Based on your fictitious observation, create a plan of action for how to proceed. This plan should include both immediate and long-term actions that you will take.
Address the following points in your discussion:
Fictitious elaboration of what you observe in the child including the possible cause. Include enough so
that you can make a plan of action
Short-term plan of action detailing the procedure of how you will address the issue immediately or by the
end of the day
Long-term plan of action detailing the procedure of how you will follow-up your short-term plan of action
Specific discussion regarding how you will support the child during this time
Guided Response: Read several of your classmates’ responses. Choose two peers who have chosen a different possible cause. Describe one example of a short-term action and one example of a long-term action that your classmates did not think of.

The Vaccine Debate. 1st Post Due by Day 3. According to Groark and Song (2012), “although vaccinations carry some risks and possible side effects, a child is generally at much greater risk for illness, which could be deadly, if the child is not vaccinated” (Section 6.4). The short- and long-term side effects of vaccines have been receiving more and more attention. For this discussion, review both sides of the vaccine debate by reading “Safety & Prevention:
How Safe are Vaccines?” from American Academy of Pediatrics and “KNOW…The Vaccine Controversy” from Vaccine Awareness of North Florida. Using these articles as well as information from Chapter 6, construct an argument either in favor of or against the use of vaccines based on the following:
If your birthday falls between January and June: Argue for vaccines.
If your birthday falls between July and December: Argue against vaccines.
Be sure to support your stance with reference to at least one additional source (and include an APA-formatted reference for that source). Your discussion post should be at least 200 words in length

ECE 214 Week 3 Discussion 1 Promoting Health and Wellness NEW
Promoting Health and Wellness. 1st Post Due by Day 3.Several weeks ago, the Smith family enrolled their 4- year-old son, Trevor, in your child care center.
As Trevor’s teacher, you have already observed that Trevor does not like to participate in activities that involve running, climbing, jumping, or more than minimal physical
movement. When presented with toys such as a ball or mitt, Trevor seems clumsy and unsure of how to use them, making him reluctant to play with the other children outdoors. Furthermore, Trevor’s parents shared with you that his pediatrician noted Trevor’s weight is above average for his height. His parents often send him to school with his lunch bag full of snacks such as cheese puffs and sugary drinks. During her initial interview with Trevor’s family, Mr. and Mrs. Smith mentioned to you
that Trevor spends most of his free time playing handheld video games and watching cartoons. The Smiths said they would like to spend more time with Trevor playing outdoors, but their work schedules make this very challenging.
What health concerns do you have about Trevor based on the information you have about Trevor and his family?
How can you encourage Trevor to participate in more physical activities at the center?
You have an upcoming parent-teacher conference with Trevor’s parents. How can you respectfully
discuss your concern about the type of snacks he brings to school?
Your discussion post should be at least 200 words in length

Throughout Chapters 5 and 6 of your textbook, we have explored many areas of health and wellness this week. For your Week 3 assignment you will develop one of these themes into a story or presentation for children and their families.
To begin, choose one of the following health and wellness themes:
Engaging in Physical Activity
Nutritious Eating
Illness/Infection Prevention
Staying Healthy in School
Staying Healthy at Home
Next, decide if you want to present your theme as a story using Storybird or a presentation using PowerPoint. Your story or presentation must contain the following:
A clear focus on one health and wellness theme from the list above.
Be written for an audience of children and their families
At least five teaching points that are directly related to your chosen theme. The teaching points you share could be facts from the textbook, ideas, strategies, or information relating to your chosen theme that are important to understand. For example, if you choose to develop a story based on the theme of illness/infection prevention you might have a child who gets sick and has to visit the doctor. While at the doctor’s office, the child learns about five ways to prevent illness/infection. If you chose to create a presentation on this theme, you would need to include at least five examples of how you can prevent illness/infection that you want the children and families viewing your presentation to understand.
At least five images, sounds, or audio features that enhance your story or presentation.
A resource page with at least three child and family friendly resources that could be used for the family to learn more information about the theme of your story or presentation. This is separate from your reference page for the assignment.
Your story or presentation should be at least ten pages/slides in length (not including the title and reference pages/slides). You will include at least two scholarly sources to support your theme. Be sure to cite these in APA format on the reference page.
