CHCECE003- Scenario: Ahmed - Moving Into The Preschool Room
Posted: Mon May 18, 2015 7:58 pm
Ahmed is a three-year-old boy who has attended the education and care service where you work since he was 18 months old. He recently moved into the pre-school room on his birthday. The last two times his mother has dropped him off at the service in the mornings he has become inconsolable; grabbing at his mother, sobbing and pleading with her to not leave him.
2.Describe three strategies that should have been put in place prior to Ahmed’s transition to the pre-school room to reduce his anxiety.
I have thought of the following but unsure if I'm on the right track or not???
-Asked Ahmed’s mother to come in for a few hours with her son to reduce his anxiety about being around new people.
-Let Ahmed start pre-school a few hours at a time before going into full days so that he will learn to be apart from his mother.
-talk to Ahmed about all the fun activities we do so he will get to know that pre-school is a fun place and that we will always look after him.
