Entering a classroom that is inviting is important, but entering a classroom that is stimulating and informative is also important, both for the students and the parents. Think about this week’s case study and what the parents and children experienced during the morning drop off routine.
Based on the information presented in Chapter 7 regarding behavior, use Microsoft Word or another program of your choosing to create a classroom poster relating to behavior that examines common developmental behaviors, as well as strategies to encourage prosocial behaviors. Be sure your poster includes:
The behavioral and emotional expectations characteristics for children at your chosen developmental stage (Toddler, preschool or primary)
Ideas for encouraging prosocial behavior in the early childhood classroom
Ideas for guiding children when their behavior is especially challenging and difficult
Be creative with your poster, but also be sure to develop your content in a professional classroom manner. Be sure your poster includes a reference to the textbook to support your ideas.
Guided Response: Review your classmates’ posters and reply to two of them. Suppose you are the administrator for the program that your classmate would have posted their poster. Provide them with feedback on their poster including:
What you like about their behavioral and emotional expectations
One obstacle they might face when implementing one of the ideas they discussed
One suggestion of an alternative way to help support positive behavior in their classroom
One reflective question you have about their poster

Reflective Journal: Leadership, Professional Knowledge and Ethical Practice. Due by Day 7. An important part of being an educator is reflection. Reflection is a learning process through which you use your experiences and knowledge to guide you in the future. Each week you will have the opportunity to use your journal to reflect on the content you have learned in this course and throughout your degree program. Specifically, you will reflect on the connections you see between each case study and two to three topics from the Program Comprehensive Exam.
This week we will be focusing on leadership, professional knowledge and ethical practice. There are many elements in education that receive attention due to the controversies surrounding them (kindergarten readiness, play in preschool, curriculum approaches, technology in education, and universal pre-k). As a reflective practitioner, it is important to consider both sides and then form your beliefs using your knowledge and experiences.
Take a few minutes to think about how the case study addresses these topics. The questions below may spark some ideas regarding leadership, professional knowledge and ethical practice. You do not need to address all the questions; instead, write down your thoughts as they unfold.
Reflect on the following in your journal:
• What is one prevalent issue in early childhood education today? Explain both sides of the debate
regarding this issue.
• What connections do you see between leadership, ethical practices, and professional knowledge regarding
this debate?
• How do you envision this issue impacting your future work with children?
• Reflecting on the content presented in the case study, what are some areas where Mrs. Ashland faces
adversity and must overcome challenges to meet the needs of her students and families? If you were facing similar challenges, how might you plan and proceed? Explain your thinking using justification, supporting details and critical thinking.

Week One Reflective Journal
Reflective Journal: Learning Environments and Instructional Strategies
An important part of being an educator is reflection. Reflection is a learning process through which you use your experiences and knowledge to guide you in the future. Each week you will have the opportunity to use your journal to reflect on the content you have learned in this course and throughout your degree program. Specifically, you will reflect on the connections you see between each case study and two to three topics from the Program Comprehensive Exam. This week we will be focusing on learning environments and instructional strategies. Take a few minutes to think about how the case study addresses these topics. The questions below may spark some ideas regarding learning environments and instructional strategies. You do not need to address all the questions; instead, write down your thoughts as they unfold. Reflect on the following in your journal:
• What was the learning environment like in the classroom where you felt the most successful in school?
• Using the case study as an example, how will you create a learning environment for your students that will allow them to feel as successful as you did in school?
• What instructional strategies did your teachers use in school in order to ensure your success? Why do you think these instructional strategies were successful?
• Based on the Week One Case Study, what instructional strategies do you think Mrs. Ashland might use with her students? Explain if or how you plan to use any of the strategies that either your teachers used or that you believe Mrs. Ashland will use with supporting rationale of your response.

In the Week 5 Case Study: Dispositions/Closure, we learn that the parents of Mrs. Ashland’s student nominate her for Golden Apple Award. In their nominations the parents express what she has done for their child and each child’s storyline is wrapped up through these explanations. You will find Week Five Case Study in the Course Materials section of your online course.
After reading Week Five Case Study, imagine you are a judge on the panel who determines which teachers receive the Channel 6 Golden Apple Award. As you do with each submission you receive, you need to analyze the letter you received about Mrs. Ashland using the dispositions of effective early childhood educators (Chapter 9) and NAEYC’s Statement of Commitment to determine if she possesses the necessary qualities to receive the award. Defend your position to recommend or decline Mrs. Ashland for this award by clearly identifying which dispositions she does or does not possesses and whether or not she displays the characteristics stated in NAEYC’s Statement of Commitment.
Guided Response: After completing your own review of Mrs. Ashland’s submission you are required to meet with at least two other members of the panel to collaborate on your findings. Respectfully critique your fellow panel member’s decision about Mrs. Ashland’s nomination by providing at least two pieces of evidence as to why you agree or disagree with their decision.

In Chapter 10 of the textbook, the author goes into depth about the importance of quality educators and leaders in early childhood programs. In fact, Krogh (2013) states, “NAEYC, Zero to Three, and other professional organizations consider the quality of program administration in an early childhood program to be strongly linked to the success of the program” (Chapter 10 Summary, para. 1). Krogh also discusses key roles and characteristics that high-quality educators demonstrate.
For this discussion, imagine you are applying for a position at a high-quality early childhood education program. As part of the application process, you must submit a resume and cover letter. It is important that you have a compelling cover letter. To write an impactful cover letter, you need to address the questions listed below. Starting with these questions will help provide a clear and concise message for the person reading your cover letter.
Why are you interested in the early childhood education position? Consider what makes the position, organization, or setting interesting to you.
What three skills or competencies related to the NAEYC Standards do you possess that match the skills the employer is seeking in a candidate?
• You can find these skills by viewing the job description. These specific skills are the reason every cover letter should be unique for each job for which you apply.
For this discussion, you will explore the components of a cover letter, reflect on your most relevant skills, and assess what action steps you can take to make your cover letter stronger.
The Cover Letters resource contains step-by step instructions for creating a cover letter. Formatting suggestions and tips regarding how to highlight your best skills and qualifications as well as how to tailor your letter for specific job you wish to apply are included.
For more in-depth guidance for writing a cover letter, please watch the Creating a Compelling Cover Letter webinar.
In your initial post
First, identify a position on www.indeed.com that interests you as a potential early childhood education
job opportunity. Using the job description, identify three skills or qualifications as related to the NAEYC standards that match your background and type them out.
Next, using the format suggestions from both the webinar and cover letter sample, develop your cover letter. In your cover letter you should include why you are interested in the position as well as a a three- to four-sentence paragraph that communicates the three matching skills and/or competencies you would like to highlight for the employer. The goal is to tailor the body of your cover letter to the position you seek.
Paste the link of the job description you are interested in and your cover letter that you have written for this job application into the discussion forum so you can obtain feedback from your classmates.
Guided Response: Respond to at least two of your peers by providing feedback on how their three key skills will help them to achieve their career goals. In addition, provide at least one suggestion for how they might emphasize their relevant skills.

Reflective Journal: Learner Development, Learning Differences, and Application of Content. Due by Day 7. An important part of being an educator is reflection. Reflection is a learning process through which you use your experiences and knowledge to guide you in the future. Each week you will have the opportunity to use your journal to reflect on the content you have learned in this course and throughout your degree program.
Specifically, you will reflect on the connections you see between each case study and two to three topics from the Program Comprehensive Exam.
This week we will be focusing on learner development, learning differences, and application of content. As you learned from this week’s readings, understanding your students is critical when you are trying to meet their developmental and academic needs. In order to do this, you must differentiate your instruction. To learn more about differentiated instruction, please read the article Differentiating Instruction in the Preschool Classroom: Bridging Emergent Literacy Instruction and Developmentally Appropriate Practice
Take a few minutes to think about how the case study addresses these topics. The questions below may spark some ideas regarding learner development, learning differences, and application of content. You do not need to address all the questions; instead, write down your thoughts as they unfold. Reflect on the following in your journal:
• What do you remember about how your own teachers differentiated instruction in order to meet the needs of all the children in your childhood classroom(s)?
• How was this similar or different to what Mrs. Ashland did in the case study to meet the needs of Johnny, Jack, Maya, Caleb, Kayla, and Jane?
• What are some strategies that Mrs. Ashland used to meet the cognitive, social and emotional, language, physical, and moral development of her students?
• Do you plan to use any of the strategies that your teachers or Mrs. Ashland used? Explain your thinking using justification, supporting details, and critical thinking.

Informal Assessment Presentation
1. Informal Assessment Presentation. Due by Day 7. According to the National Association for the Education of Young Children, the assessment of children’s development and learning is essential for teachers and programs in order to plan, implement, and evaluate the effectiveness of the classroom experiences.
For this assignment, you will create an informal assessment presentation that you could share with prospective employers, your administrator, or other teachers and colleagues. Since you will be presenting to others in the field, there is no need to explain the basics of the assessment; rather, use this assignment to dive deeper with your explanation. This presentation should be a showcase of the knowledge you have regarding three specific informal assessments that are developmentally appropriate for children as well as your critical reflection of how you view the assessment adding to the quality of your program for your children.

Chapter 1 of our textbook, A bridge to the classroom and early care: ECE capstone, discusses seven developmentally appropriate practice topics. For this discussion, you will be focusing on one of these topics based on the group to which you are assigned below. For the topic you are assigned, write a position statement that reflects your current thinking on this topic. Make sure to include the connection between this developmentally appropriate practice and NAEYC’s Standards for Early Childhood Professional Preparation. For example, if you are assigned to the environment you might explain a bit about how the room is set up and why materials are presented as they are. This would include explanations of the developmental appropriateness of the environmental decisions you have made. You might even be able to find inspiration from Mrs. Ashland.
Guided Response: Review your classmates’ posts and respond to at least two classmates who wrote about a different Developmentally Appropriate Practice than you. Analyze and share at least two positive implications of having a solid foundation in the Developmentally Appropriate Practice your classmates discussed.
