Three ideals contained in the NAEYC and DEC codes of ethics.

I -2.3—To respect the dignity of each family and its culture, customs, and beliefs.

 

 

I -3C.2—To create a climate of trust and candor that will enable staff to speak and act in the best interests of children, families, and the field of early childhood education.

 

 

P-1.2—We shall not participate in practices that discriminate against children by denying benefits, giving special advantages, or excluding them from programs or activities on the basis of their race, religion, sex, national origin, or the status, behavior, or beliefs of their parents

The reason I pick these three is because they play important part with my own family. It is so important for me to see every child and their family have equal right no matter what their ethnicity or their beliefs maybe. Equal Opportunity should be for all students and their family...

• "Of course children benefit from positive feedback. But praise and rewards are not the only methods of reinforcement. More emphasis... should be place on appreciation--reinforcement related explicitly and directly to the content of the child's interest and efforts."
