CHCECE026 - Developing A Newsletter For An EC Setting

[Jayelise]

Hello,

I am struggling with this assessment, I have attached what I have done so far, but I am a bit overwhelmed. Not sure where to go next with it. (I have emailed my teacher but this can take a few days and I am trying to finish this assessment thanks)

To complete this assessment task, you need to create a newsletter for a fictional early education and care service that has two purposes:
1. To inform parents about community services and resources.
2. To provide families with opportunities to be involved in the service.
Using your own community as a basis, create a newsletter (2–3 pages) that could be sent to families to inform and facilitate strong partnerships between this fictional service and its families. Your newsletter should be professionally presented, including:
• the correct use of references
• being logically ordered
• being clear and easy to read
• the use of correct spelling and grammar
• in the form of a Word document or pdf
• being your own original content (i.e. material that is a quotation or sourced elsewhere needs to be attributed).
Note: You may use small illustrations if relevant, although these should be properly referenced if they are not your original content.
Your newsletter should be aimed at a wide range of family members with different language needs, literacy levels, and educational and cultural backgrounds.
The information that you need to address in your newsletter includes:
a) Inform families of five actual community services and resources that may assist and support them. A mixture of government services, financial services, local resources and community groups can be used. Provide accurate contact details, a short description of their services/resources and a short explanation of how this might benefit children or families.
b) How the service keeps their directory of local services and resources up-to-date and current.
c) Encourage families to share their knowledge, skills, expertise, and aspects of their family life and culture, including three specific and detailed ideas of how they can do so.
d) Encourage families to contribute to the operation of the service in an advisory, consultative or decision-making role, including three specific and detailed ideas of how they can do so.
e) How family participation benefits children.
You can be creative with how you present this newsletter and make it as realistic as you wish.

I really like how you have developed your newsletter! The images are very cute! Especially the monkey!

Ok, so far you're on a good start and the information you have provided is good!

With Useful Community Resources, you will need to create is more a newsletter style, so the same as you did for page 1. Add a box around and maybe a few images to make it more colourful.

The only thing that's left to add is how to encourage families within the service and how it benefits children. So you can do another heading with something like "Get Involved". Be sure to add images here and there which will brighten it up as well.

Hope this give you some ideas!
