Transitions require young children to put forth great amounts of effort, not only physically, but emotionally, socially, and cognitively.
true
Decide which of the following statements is CORRECT:
Having a sense of child development helps you understand what general skills children already have or are working on.
If you have children who often fall apart when transitioning, or possibly have challenging behaviors before, during, and after transitions, you may want to lessen the number of transitions in your program or ask your director for more support.
Teachers should carefully plan ahead for these times (e.g. transitions), because when done effectively children will move through the day with much greater ease.
Decide which of the following statements is NOT correct:
Children who are still working on a project need to either finish it, or take it down (or apart).
It is sufficient for children to sing a song while hand washing for 10 seconds or less.
false
Children should move together from one area to another area when they complete an activity.
Case Study: Miss Aafiya was watching over twelve 4-year olds. From 12:00-12:45 they were playing on the playground. At 12:40 she gave the children a warning that there was 5 minutes left of play time. Then at 12:45 the children stopped playing and began cleaning up in the bathroom. At approximately 1:00 Miss Aafiya had the children lay down for their nap. Unfortunately, the children did not want to take a nap and began throwing a tantrum. Regardless and without giving up, Miss Aafiya insisted the children needs to take a nap or they wouldn’t get anymore play time that afternoon. That still didn’t work. What could Miss Aafiya have done differently to improve the transition? Why do you think the children couldn’t/wouldn’t take a nap?
