Early Childhood Education
Early Childhood Education is an important way of understanding the child psychology and helps
the child grow through the childhood in the way that is best suited. It ensures that the child
develops both social and personal traits in a balanced way. The children must be made to
understand that they will be interacting with the society for the rest of their lives. Here, they are
also to develop their own taste and own choices while blending well in the society. This is not
something that can be made to understand in the high sounding words but it is the theories and
the efforts of the teachers that can make this possible. Here, in this research the main idea is
assessing the importance of documentation, planning, assessment and teaching young children
(Schewe & Woodhouse 2018).
Personal professional philosophy is a unique approach of the teachers that they develop towards
the children which is backed by theoretical evidences and literatures and practical viability.
Beliefs, concepts and attitude to the early childhood education are a dynamic concept and can be
explored by a number of ways provided it has theoretical evidences to be compatible with the
mindset of children (Richter 2017).
Documentation
Documentation plays an important role in understanding each child individually. The question
often is asked that what documentation is with regards to child education and the early childhood
development. The documentation here can be done in two parts. The first part will lead to the
other part. In part one what can be done is collect the documental evidences of the kid and keep a
record and part two is to make estimation out of it. This is going to ensure that the evidences are
in place and the estimation of the child can be done in the right way with no assumption as
assumption and no evidences can lead to wrongful judgment of the kid, which, if passed to
parents, will lead to wrong approach to the child. As a teacher, it is quite important that the
judgment is not made without evidences and without supporting it by theories. These two are the
two important component of a fine teaching approach (Jones 2015).
