The objective of this assessment. This work sample aims for the student to become informed and learn to participate in routine care practices for children of various ages. This may involve the comprehensions of guiding behaviours, scaffolding, and supporting development and becoming ‘hands on’ in the implementation of experiences, nappy changing, toileting, food and beverage provisions and sleep, alongside the relevant Industry guidelines. The student is expected to begin to connect early childhood theorists when implementing or reflecting on practices and the benefits in understanding and observing how children learn. How to complete this work sample You must answer all the questions in this assessment. When answering the questions be sure to reflect on your work experiences whilst on placement. Your answers must be attached to this assessment with a cover sheet and submitted to your MEGT assessor by the due date. See MEGT policies on your Moodle account for more information. As part of this assessment you must ensure you utilise the student assessment guide in conjunction with the following documents: The National Quality Framework The National Quality Standards The relevant Approved learning framework Service policies and procedures *You are required to have your supervisors signature at the bottom of the assessment (before implementation of any experiences and after completion of the final assessment) before submission. *You are required to have the approval of the family, to use information given to you about their child for use of program and practice.

One implemented experience must be observed by your assessor on your placement visit.

There are 3 parts to this Work Sample Part 1: Sharing information and developing relationships Part 2: Planning for Children’s interests, abilities and needs Part 3: Using information to inform practice and program.

Part 1: Sharing Information and Developing Relationships Question 1 This task requires you to research the service policies and procedures, as well as observe the practices of Educators, in relation to sharing information with families and developing relationships with children. a) Describe how the Educators at your service gather information about the child from the parent/guardian. - Enrolment form - Conversation with the parents b) How do they obtain the child’s immunisation status? Through children’s immunization records. c) How do the educators create a partnership with families and use the information given to them? Include information on sleep, food (including breastfeeding needs), toileting and clothing needs and the development of their child. - The sleep requirements were communicated directly to the educators daily. However, during the sleep and rest time all children slept most of the time. - For food requirements, there were poster with a picture on the wall with the requirements of each child, including allergies. - For nappy changing requirements, there were poster with a picture on the wall with the requirements of each child in the nappy changing area. - Each child has a portfolio with their development and art work - Clothing needs were communicated directly to the room leader, and if it was a clothing requirement, there was in the poster on the room’s wall. d) Describe how the Educator communicates information about the child’s education and care to the parent/guardian. Phone call or conversations with parents when they pick up their children. e) Describe the roles you played in ensuring the families were communicated with e.g documenting nappy changes or food intake, conversations with families, assisting to write reflections, communicating your observations of a child to your supervisor to ensure families received the information etc. There was daily record about meal, sleeping time and nappy change on the wall. But it was filled by the room leader except the nappy change, that it was filled by the educator who was assigned to do nappy change. There were not major incidents during my work placement, so I did not have to communicate anything to the families. There was a small accident, but the room leader talked to the parents.

Part 2: Routines and Transitions Question 1 This task requires you to observe arrival routines at your service and document how the environment, routine, and Educator strategies support children during these times of change. You must choose one child and document the arrival routine for the child and their familiy and answer the following questions. a) How does the Educator respond to the child on arrival? What do they do or say? The educator says hello to the child, and let the room know that a child arrives by saying Hello Emilia, look Emilia is here. b) How does the child respond to the Educator’s attention? The child always responds to the educator’s attention and greets her back. c) What non-verbal cues (e.g. facial expressions, body language) does the child display and how does Educator respond to these? The child looks at the educator when she greets her, and smiles. d) How is the environment is set up to welcome children and families? The room is pretty big and it is divided 10 areas where the children can do many experiences. It’s a very attractive and big room. Near the door, there is a locker area with the children’s names where the parents leave their child’s bag. e) How do Educators make themselves available at this time to families? There is always an educator in the room during the drop off time and have small conversations with the parents while they are leaving their child in the room. f)

How do the Educators support children’s emotional wellbeing? They are always encouraging children to do new things and comfort them when children feel distress or frustrated.

g) Describe how the Educator supports the child to settle into the day, including strategies used to minimise distress at separation. When the educator is implementing an experience, she tries to invite her to participate. The child doesn’t feel distress when her father leaves her at the centre. In the case of distress child at separation, the educator invites the child to do something or play with something, to distract her/him while the parent leaves the room. h) Explain why it is important to ensure that the arrival routine is predictable and

supportive. Because it will be less traumatic or distressful for the child at the moment of separation from the parent and makes them feel in a safe environment if they know the routine.

Part 3: Using information in inform program practice. Question 1: Research shows, that ‘Play’ is paramount to the ongoing development of the brain in babies and toddlers, this then trickles down to the development of the holistic child.
