The book Just Kids explained how both Robert’s and Patti’s childhood influenced their work of art. Just Kids begins by explaining the core of Patti’s and Robert’s art, which is their childhood.

    I feel like Ryder is progressing on typical toddler issues as well as anyone can expect. One typical toddler issue he is facing is potty training. It is suggested in the textbook that parents not push their children to be toilet trained but allow them to choose when they are ready, and assist them when they are. Lindsay and I have been using this method, wanting his curiosity to lead him to be ready. The average age children are ready for toilet training is at 22 months (1 year, 10 months), however this is simply an average, and some children will be ready before or after this period.…

    In the Pre-K classroom that I observed it consisted of several different centers for the children to participate in, such as: block area, dramatic play, art, library, sand/water table, music/movement, sensory area, finger painting, play dough, and the students got the opportunity to make their own snacks. Not only did the students get to participate in centers, they had the opportunity each day to go outside and play on the playground as well as having an interactive lecture every morning at circle time and when the students sat down at their tables to do their daily worksheet. I believe that the Pre-K class I observed was a mix between traditional teaching as well as constructivism, creating a balance between the two. In the morning during circle time, the teacher would “lecture” the students with the letter of the day, go over the date, months, days of the week, shapes, and the numbers up to the date it currently was.…

    The Value of the Arts in Early Childhood Education The Arts in early childhood education are more than just providing a child with paints and crafts or something that is carried out to fill a gap in the day. Creativity is as important in education as literacy and it should be treated with the same status (Robinson, TED Talk, 2006).

    “For very young children, making art -- or just talking about it- provides opportunities to learn words for colors, shapes, and actions” (Lynch). It is vital for a child to learn the importance of art early in their life so that they can choose whether or not they will be dedicated to pursue a career involving art skills. Learning about these basic forms of art at an early age gives children more insight in preparation for their educational life. “Although some may regard art education as a luxury, simple creative activities are some of the building blocks of child development” (Lynch). Students involved in simple creative activities within their peers can affect their emotional status and gives a more comforting feeling being around others that have similar qualities of enjoyment.…
