CODE of ETHICS (NAEYC and DEC codes)
“Never harm children”
Children are our future and as educator we must protect the children from any harm. It is important to ensure the safety of all children.
“We shall build relationships with individual children and families while individualizing the curriculum and learning environments to facilitate young children’s development and learning.”
It is important to have a relationship with the children and their families. This can be done by having PACT (Parent and Child Time). As an educator, I will create activities and games for parent and children to do while they are home. Home visits will also be conducted weekly to check on the child’s progress and to provide assistant to the parent if they need helpful ideas such as:
· How to help with homework.
· How to discipline my child.
· Implementing a daily reading program (read aloud activities)
“Be open to new ideas and be willing to learn from the suggestions of others”
I will always be open to new ideas. The world is rapidly changing for the better. It is good to be traditional but it will be great to acquire new skills.
