    If I felt that a child under my care needed a referral for developmental screening and I

    brought it up with the child’s parents, I would start by sharing positives with them about their

    child. I would be sure that the parent trusts that I care for their child and have their best

    interest in mind, and then I would bring up my concerns.

    2. Before talking to a parent or caregiver, I need to consider the amount of observing I have

    done on the child, and I need to consider how confident I am in what I am observing.

  • To learn about children and their development we can use an anecdotal record, which is a

    brief summary describing an incident of a child’s behavior that shows developmental growth. I

    think pictures and videos are a great way to show how a child is developing.

    I think a lot of screentime for little kids is bad and should be very limited. In my center we do have iPads for the teachers to use but we mainly put on music with them which engages the children. As seen from the research screentime puts kids at a, “higher risk of being overweight, prejudiced, sedentary, fearful, aggressive, and/or unable to distinguish between fantasy and reality” (Safe guard).

    I would explain that the child is distraut and feels uneasy by the tardiness. i would also emphasize the importance of the center’s staff’s time and let her know that if this keeps happening the child will no longer attend the center.

    4. Some extended family members may confuse children, so they should not have a voice in raising or educating the child. Agree
    5. My curriculum should be based on each individual child’s current interests. Strongly disagree
    6. Diversity definitely includes race and culture, but doesn’t include age, ability or family make-up. Strongly disagree
    7. Media in general delivers fair and accurate accounts of events around the country. Strongly disagree

    Point of view:

    University major

    Political beliefs

    family upbringing

    personal beliefs

    Reflect on the ways people respond to one another when points of view differ. Do we ever change our views? What kinds of things influence us to change our perspective?

    Yes I believe that our views can change. Education impacts our perspective, the more you know about a subject the more your opinion changes.
