Child’s behavior &
emotional disposition:
The behaviour of child
clearly shows that the
environment has a huge
role to play in the emotion
disposed by a child. The
child’s behaviour is pretty
much a reflection of the
environment as can be
seen from the video. Thus,
the role of environment in
the behaviour and
emotional disposition of a
child is quite significant.
The video shows how the
emotion and behaviour of
a child changes with the
changes in environment. A
happy and careful
environment bring the
best of emotions in
children as they laugh and
smile while the
environment is such.
Environmental influences:
I. Active.
Strength # 1
Continuum ref. number 1
Domain – Emotional
Skill – Children smiling
Evidence – The evidence
is the fact that children
smiles in case the
environment allows them
to smile. A happy and
chirpy environment helps
the children to enjoy and
smile is the natural
progression in such
situation.
Priority Need:
Continuum ref. number 2
Domain –
Social/Emotional
Skill – Children playing.
Evidence – Allowing
children space to play.
Adult’s response:
The adult’s response is
in line with the
strategy. Whenever a
child needs whatever
help adults are always
ready to do necessary
things to make children
happy.
Direct or indirect
response?:
Direct response as once
the children are in need
the response is direct.
Benefits of response:
Benefits of response is
that the child have
better experience. Also
the emotional
attachment is more for
a child with direct
response as compared
to indirect response.
Direct response clearly
brings out the best in
children as they feel
happy with people
around them as
Alternative approach:
Alternative strategy
include not responding
at all or responding
indirectly in a muted
way to observe the
impact of indirect
response on the
behaviour of children
and their emotional
disposition.
Direct or indirect
strategy?:
The strategy has to be
direct with indirect
response. There should
be no grey line the
strategy as the response
has to be indirect and
muted to observe the
impact of the change in
response on child’s
behaviour and
emotional disposition.
Appropriateness of
response:
