Instructions to Student:
The aim of this assessment is to assess your skills and knowledge that are required for this unit. Use
the Learning Resources that the Trainer provides you and also your Trainer to assist you in
completing this booklet with accuracy.
This section of the assessment incorporates the unit scope, underpinning knowledge, critical
aspects and the appropriate employability skills. This assessment can be given as a self-paced
written assessment, administered orally by an assessor or a combination of both. Whichever
method is used, the answers to the questions will be recorded on this assessment schedule.
The Student must complete ALL questions correctly. If an answer is not correct, the Assessor
must investigate the level of understanding. The Assessor will then document any discussions in the
Assessor Box provided at the bottom of each page. If the Assessor asks any additional questions,
these will be documented in the Assessor Box and include the Student's answer.
If the Student does not demonstrate the required underpinning skills and knowledge, then the
Student is deemed not yet competent in this unit. Some possible solutions to achieve competence
are:

• Additional training may be required
• Additional research may be required

Knowledge Assessment
1. Listed in the table below are some of the key elements that must be present for the effective
delivery of quality early childhood education and care.
For each element listed, describe one way it can be translated in early childhood settings. Think
about policies, procedures, curriculum and routines.
Element How it can be translated into practice.
a. Recognition of the family and
relationships within the family
as critical to healthy child
development.
To help children recognize and value family relationships, a
play based session can be planned where children are
asked to enact the role of their mother or father or other
members of the family. A child may be asked in the play
sessions to describe about their family and the things they
like about their families. They may be encouraged to say
positive things about their family. Such activity will create a
sense of connectedness and children will experience pride
after sensing and respecting their family relationship
(Newman and Newman 2017). As children constructs
meaning about family relationship in different ways,
educators can intervene to teach children to show respect
for their family members.
b. A key focus on the principles of
development, learning and play.
Play based learning can be implemented in child care
setting which targets specifics areas of development,
encourages learning as well as play in children. It helps
children to learn through discovering things while
completing activities. Meaningful play activities can
develop language skills, fine and gross motor skills and
social skills in children (Edwards et al. 2017). For example, a
group of 5-6 children may be asked to engage in a dramatic
play related to some moral stories. Through this kind of
play, children will learn cooperation and self-help skills.
Enacting the play in a group will develop social skills and
encourage them to freely talk with others. Apart from this,
specific moral story based dramas will make children make
sense of their role in society and awareness regarding
desirable behaviour in community.

c. Early childhood programs
recognise that learning occurs
in a social context and that
family, cultural and
environmental factors impact
significantly on learning
opportunities and learning
outcomes for young children.
In the social context, making children aware about
diversities in society is important to promote learning and
development. Hence, in child education setting, a cultural
dress program can be arranged where children are asked to
dress up according to their culture. Such activities in child
care setting can make children aware about social and
cultural context around their environment. It will give them
the opportunity to learn about different cultural aspects and
it will act a new experience of learning for children
(VanHoorn et al. 2014). Children may be asked to try on
dress of different culture and the educator in turn can give
short speech about that culture. Such educational activities
engage children in learning and they can be related to
cultural and social aspects that they see around them.
d. Recognition of the early years
as a unique period.
Educators can facilitate recognition of early years as a
unique period respecting and recognizing the unique
qualities and abilities of each child. Children can be
provided opportunities for unique learning by arranging
outdoor plays for children (McClintic and Petty 2015).
Shifting to outdoor space instead of teaching in a confined
room provide opportunities for unique play and learning.
They will learn to engage in physical activities, develop
gross motor skills and make sense of the environment.
Outdoor spaces are dynamic and it can promote educators
to take flexible approach to provide unique learning
opportunities to children and establish their connection with
the natural world.
