apply these ideas to your own life.

1.) Choose a significant memory from your early childhood. Describe the memory as clearly as you can. It is important to put this in writing before you proceed to the next steps. Take as much space as you need to write this, although 2-3 paragraphs will suffice.

2). Independently ask multiple family members or other people who were also present for the situation ( at least 2) to describe the event in as much detail as possible.
Share each description.

        Person A:

        Person B:

3.) In all likelihood, their memories of it will differ dramatically. Note any meaningful differences here. You may separate by person, or cluster differences together. 1-2 paragraphs.

4.) Using the ideas from Chapter Two, how do you (or could you) explain these differing truths? 1-2 paragraphs.

, is the most critical phase of human development. The experiences children have during this time have the power to shape their health and well-being, both positively and negatively, for years to come.

Share an example of a partnership that you, as a current or aspiring early education professional, would develop with families and the community.
How does this partnership support children?
What steps would you take to get started?
How do these steps connect to the essential components of family-school-community partnerships?

assignment is in two parts. Part A needs to be a reflection and Part B needs to be an article.
Below is the outline for what needs to be done and included in both part A and part B to complete this assignment successfully.

Part A
Needs to have 2 references and be 250 words in length.
In the Learner Guide for this unit, you were asked to download copies of the following documents:
• Early Childhood Australia 2011, Code of ethics, earlychildhoodaustralia.org.au/our-publications/eca-code-ethics/

• Unicef 1996, A simplified version of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, unicef.org.au/Discover/What-we-do/Convention-on-the-Rights-of-the-Child/childfriendlycrc.aspx
Write a short reflection, on how these documents inform your role as an educator, both theoretically and practically.

Part B
Needs to have 3 references and be 300 words in length.
Write a short, easy-to-read article on a service’s approach to behaviour guidance for a family newsletter. The article should be suitable for an education and care service that cares for children aged 0 to 6 years.
The focus of your short article should be on ‘why we focus on positive behaviour guidance not punishment’. Your article should include:
• reflections on values and how these guide our understanding of appropriate and inappropriate behaviours
• how the service responds to behaviour incidents
