Learner Development
Learning Differences
Learning Environments
Content Knowledge
Application of Content
For the final journal, reflect on the above topics and how they are aligned with the main content covered in this course. This course is focused on multicultural and anti-bias issues that support the development of cultural competence when working with children and families in early childhood settings. With this in mind,
describe how you will demonstrate cultural competence in the above topic areas.
For each topic area, develop a commitment statement that you can use in your future role. For example:
Learner Development: In order to support language development to meet the individual needs of the children in my classroom, I will use checklists to observe where children need additional assistance. Once I observe each child and document where each individual child needs assistance, I will support him or her one-on-one using developmentally appropriate language and literacy approaches. Some examples include providing a print-rich environment, reading aloud to children as a model of language, developing vocabulary through dual-language exploration, and providing engaging learning experiences in which children can use vocabulary and make meaningful connections across instructional activities.
Reflect carefully on how you would apply your chosen principles and construct a 250- to 300-word journal entry using critical thinking. Since this is a journal activity, scholarly sources are not required; however, they may help you support your ideas.
