question and answer:
Q； Nadrya (16 months) gets up from the table with a piece of apple in his hand. He begins to wander over to his Educator who is standing at the bench eating a banana. She sees him coming towards her with the apple in his hand and says, “Don't walk around while you are still eating. Go back and sit at the table.”
my answer：Nadrya just 16 months. It is not helpful to just tell her what don't walk around while you are still eating. It is not an age appropriate expectation.
feedback： Great response, however you also need to consider why else this would be ineffective. What is the educator doing and what is she asking of the child. apply your knowledge why strategy used by educator in scenario is not effective.
my revised answer：
Nadrya just 16 months. It is not helpful to just tell her what don't walk around while you are still eating. It is not an age appropriate expectation.
The educator not position at the Nadrya’s level to talk to them. Getting down to the Nadrya’s level ensures that you have the his full attention and that he is listening to you.
“Don't walk around while you are still eating. Go back and sit at the table.” Talk to children about limits in a positive way which focuses on what to do, rather than what not to do. But the educator chose a negative way. Use ‘I statements’ e.g. ‘I would like you to…’; ‘I feel...’ ‘I’ statements are less threatening for the child.
Q2:Read the following scenarios and use the table to document your responses to the following questions:
The Educator’s instructions in the scenarios could cause frustration and inappropriate behaviour, suggest a reason why? e.g. Is the Educator providing choices? Are the questions open ended?
Provide an alternative Educator response i.e. how could the instruction be given differently to promote positive behaviour?
Educator Scenario “How about you give Harry (4 years 6 months) a turn with the bike now? We have to share.”
my answer： It’s ok, let’s go and find you another bike. You can have a turn with that bike after Harry has his turn.
feedback：How could you phrase your response so it is fair for both children, think about time & turns. what if there is no other bike? Think about setting up a time limit to encourage sharing and turn taking.
my revised answer： It’s ok, I know you both wanted that. Everyone can ride for 5 minutes.
Q3：Educators need to be mindful not to ‘reward’ inappropriate behavior. Read the following scenarios and use the table below to document your responses to the following questions: Is the Educator strategy effective or ineffective, is it rewarding the child’s inappropriate child’s behavior? Give a reason for your answer.
Maya (3 years) had become very finicky about her food. Whenever she refused to eat what was offered to her she was immediately given a Vegemite sandwich.
my answer：Allow Maya enough time to process the information. Give warnings of changes and, when offering choices, allows the children time to think about the options and decide what action to take.
feedback： Why do you think educator’s strategy is ineffective. Do you think if a child refuses to eat, educator should straight away give food of their choice or try something else.
my revised answer：
anyone can help me ?thanks.

), refuses to eat something she may like because she wants the sandwich instead she would automatically refuse it because she gets an alternative. The educator should get her to try the food by having at least 4 bites of it and encouraged to eat her food. Instead of giving her a vegemite sandwich she can be given the "plain" version of the food" or a healthier alternative. So, at least she is getting her nutrition for the day.
