im stuck on this question
imagine you are a caregiver in this room. you become a bit concerne when you hear the following comments from the children
Belinda to chaminda: '' you've got a funny dress on "
monique to corazon: " you talk funny "
spencer to catriona: " how come you are scared about going to school? "
for each statement explain how you could talk positively about the differences within this group of children and promote the differences as resources, rather then problems.

Re: CHCI301D - Talking Positively About Differences With Children
Hi Jo,
When you hear comments like this being made by children you need to talk to them positively about what they had observed and explain to them about the comments they made. Children are fairly honest and they will basically tell it like it is. So, for the first example "you've got a funny dress on " you just need to explain positively about why the child is wearing a dress like that. Do your own research, talk to the parents, find out about the child's culture and incorporate it into the children's learning experiences to make them more aware of the similarities and differences between people. You could basically use the same idea for the other examples as well...
Hope This Helps!
Cheers

hi, am really stuck with the first question
Please write a more appropriate carer response to the following, make sure you include your nonverbal responses, also explain why your response was developmentally appropriate.
1- Greg (3.2 years) was drawing at the writing table for over 10 minutes. you approach him and say " hey Greg, what did you draw?
2 - Peter (2.8 years) came to care today every tired and missed his breakfast because he did not want to get up. This morning in the block corner he become frustrated and hit Marcia over the head with a block.
what do you think contributed to peters' behaviour?
How would you respond to this incident? please identify both verbal and non-verbal responses??
many thanks
