In the first part of the course, students will have opportunities to develop skills in order to observe, record and document the behaviour of young children. Students will begin to support and extend children’s interests and play through spontaneous and planned inclusive activities. Interpersonal skills with adults and children will also be developed. During the practicum, students will use their daily Teacher Journal and sponsor teacher suggestions to reflect on their own significant learning. Based on observations, students will be able to begin to interpret children’s engagements and develop responsive programming strategies.
