Competency Goal I.
To establish and maintain a safe healthy learning environment.
Functional area: 3 Learning environment.
My objective is to provide a warm, trusting place for young infants, mobile infants, toddlers, and preschoolers can learn through creative, manipulative, physical activity.
First activity: Young infants will find my environment to be fl#ed with stimulating colors and sounds.
This activity for the young infants is sitting in a rocking chair and singing a "la-la bye", and soft songs can be used. "Rock-by baby", is a favorite of mine. This smoothes and stimulates the very young infant and introduce them to words and sounds, but he will also feel a sense of security and love, while in my care.
Materials needed: Rocker and soft toys.
The second activity is for mobile infants ages 9 to 17 months of age, is to let them play with large colorful blocks on a soft cushioned surface.
This will not only also serve as a manipulative object that will enhance fine motor skills.
Materials needed: large colorful blocks, and soft surface.
The first activity for toddler's ages 18 to 35 months Is to play "Ring around the roses". This game teaches toddlers to socialize with others. We make a circle everyone holding hands and going around and around. The song goes like this "Ring around the roses pocketful of poses, ashes, ashes we all fall down,". Children will be happy while developing physical, cognitive and social skills.
Materials needed: Space.
