Listening is arguably the most important way in which to establish a respectful and professional relationship with a child or young person. By listening to what a child has to say, without interruption, conveys to the child that you are in interested in and values what the child has to say. By not interrupting the child, it shows that their views and opinions are not only respected by you, but are also as important as the views and opinions of you themselves. You should also take an active interest in what the child has to say and an interest in the child themselves. For example, what are their hobbies, their interests, their likes and dislikes? .…
Children need to have role models, they need to understand that these people eg.teachers , classroom assistants or school principles must be listened too, respected and obeyed. Communicating clearly with children (either giving orders or simply praising them) helps to establish this, and in return, hopefully you will built trust and respect. This is vital if a child needs to confide in us regarding aspects of their life which may be troubling them. Eg bullying, family life or maybe having negative feeling.…
Children don't know any better, they depend on the guidance of a father, mother or even both. Joy Moore, the mother of Wes Moore (the author) was there to guide him every step of the way and because of that, he became what he is now. ‘“Get up to your damn room” came my mother's command from the doorway “I told you, don't ever put…

* Listen – it is important for the child to know that you care, get on their level and listen to what they have to say; even repeating parts of what they say so that they know you’ve taken an interest. However it is also key to know when to say enough is enough, “tell me later” “hold that thought and tell me at break or lunch”. This way the kid knows that you are listening but they have the information that something else is happening.…

The child also had no response to my voice when asking child some questions. I also noticed that the child paid very little attention to the story as he was messing around with random items he found on the floor around him. I had wrote down all of my points on a note pad for me to assess the situation and make decisions of what to do next with the information I have received. When the child’s parent came to the setting I had explained to them about the observation and some of the…
It all began when a was a little boy and all I wanted was a dog, for years I begged and begged, and still no dog. I felt as if I was incomplete without one, I had even written persuasive essays in school on why I should get a dog and waited and just hoped for it. Finally, when I was in 5th grade, I found a church ministry where we met once month and came up with ideas to raise money for the local rescue. During the meetings, we would also go for a walk, those who had animals would walk them. One time, somebody from the rescue came with one of the rescue dogs for the walk, which inspired me to go to the rescue and check it out.…
As for the child I chose, she comes from a low income family and is a minority. Many children that come from other countries tend to be interested in school. So this student is very attentive to education. She loves to color, draw, and read picture books. This student is very imaginative and likes to create new ideas. Since she comes from a low income family, she lacks supplies that she needs. She lacks the support of her family in school since they do not speak English very well, although they have high educational aspirations for their daughter. My student decides to come to school every day, waking herself up determined to coming to school. This six year old also loves to play and communicate with her peers. She loves to help and she likes to eat many snacks.…

Also make it know that you are aware of their views and that each one is an individual. It is important that you advise and explain how specific things can help and support them make positive and judgemental choice which can have a positive impact on their own well being and safety. Everyone learns by doing things, taking risks, so if a child is doing something knew and taking a risk, be there to support them. You can do this by talking to them, or ask them to talk you through what and why they are doing what they are doing, or physically help them by aiding them or being at their line of sight. It may be useful to show an interest in what a child is doing as it will encourage them to discuss their thought process. Just always be sure the child is safe and encourage them wherever possible. When working with children the key points are when empowering children to make positive and informed choices are to be honest, set boundaries, reinforce problems that may arise and to promote positive relationships with…
The world is changing in many ways and so are the new generations. It is very important to know how to raise children. Throughout the semester I was asked to raise a baby, whom I named Kyle. He was always a cautious and unpredictable child. When Kyle was younger and he was aggressive and it was difficult to calm him down. As he grew older, he was not as aggressive and his language, motor and cognitive skills greatly expanded. While raising Kyle, I tried not to be controlling because I knew that Kyle was of aware of right from wrong. If Kyle chose to do wrong while knowing he wasn't right, he would have to learn from his mistake. When Kyle was four, my partner and I argued a lot over work and balancing life. While…
