ial.com     For this post, you will first discuss
your ideas for how best to assist Jeremy and
Sarah in the following scenario Jeremy and
Sarah, co-teachers of toddlers, struggle each day
to get all the children ready to go outside. Most
of the children need a lot of assistance to put
on coats, snow pants, boots, hats, and mittens.
In addition, some of the parents forget to bring
the needed clothing. Jeremy or Sarah then has to
dig through the program extras to find ones that
will fit. While Jeremy and Sarah are helping the
ten children get ready, the children that are
already dressed are waiting, pushing, or
wrestling with each other, and saying they are
hot.

the Classroom For more classes
visit www.snaptutorial.com   While early
childhood professionals agree that health and
safety are important, as the following scenario
illustrates, there is often disagreement about
what constitutes a hazard. Becky, a teacher for
many years, was the owner of the only preschool
in the small town in which she lived. She often
told parents that her number one concern was
child safety. To prevent injury, she eliminated
any potentially hazardous material from the
preschool.

ECE 343 Week 2 DQ 2 Design Considerations For
more classes visit www.snaptutorial.com   When
you walk into a restaurant or a store, you often
get a feel for the environment. It may feel
warm, comfortable, and inviting or it may seem
too loud, too bright, and overwhelming. The same
is true of the learning environments we create
for children. In Chapter 6, Bullard discusses
such important design considerations as color,
lighting, walls, and floors. For this discussion,
watch the two videos, Color and The Floor as
Furniture, featured hereBASICspaces Designing
Infant and Toddler Environments. In your post

Environments CLOs 3 4. 1stPost Due by Day 3.
As discussed in Chapter 17 of your text, it is
important that children are afforded
opportunities to engage in meaningful outdoor
playtime. Research indicates that children who
play outdoors demonstrate better visual motor
integration, imagination, and verbal and social
skills than children who play inside (Yerkes,
1982, as quote by Bullard, 2014, pg. 360). For
this reason, it is important that caregivers
create quality outdoor spaces for those children
in their care. For this post, you will first

spaces through Education Outsides website,
