o 6.e. Engaging in informed advocacy for young children in early
childhood profession.
Dr. Stuart Browns TED talk Play is more than just fun and Piagets
philosophy on how important playtime is in early childhood
education has greatly influenced how I teach children. It is for this
reason I chose to do a Service Learning Project that provided for
learning through play. While the children were playing with the
Teddy Bears, I observed the children talking with each other. They
were sharing their knowledge and were learning their colors,
textures, sharing their family structures and relationships, and
learning to share the toys and books.
SKILLS:
o I had to take a knitting class to learn how to read the pattern for
Teddy Bears. I know how to knit, but I did not know how to read a
pattern for knitting in the round or knitting without seams.
o I had to use my communication skills to meet with the volunteers in
the community to knit or crochet Teddy Bears. I met the volunteers
through my childcare center, the Longmont Yarn Shoppe, and in
the community near the childcare center.
