Skills And Behavioural Attributes Assignment

1. a. How do children develop a sense of belonging and connectedness?
The child is required to be indulged in the process of developing their skills and
behavioural attributes by working with others (Hirsch, 2016). When they help
others, play cooperatively and gain the sense of empathy, their connectedness
and belonging senses are developed. The social and emotional skills of the child
are required to be supported by their parents and care givers. Communication
with the child is also important to develop the same (Hirsch, 2016).
b. What are some of the ways we can do this in and education and care
service?
The school community needs to value the child and show empathetic behaviour to
the child. As suggested by Ziv,
et al., (2016) these sense could be developed in a
child with building high-quality student-teacher relations. Being sensitive to the
child’s emotions and needs could also make the child connected. They are to be
encouraged to team works.
