Question Description
Prior to beginning work on the discussion, read standard #9 in the NAEYC Early Childhood Program Standards. For this discussion you will need to create an outdoor space, so pay close attention to standard requirements.
As the new teacher’s assistant at Bright Futures Early Learning Center, your teacher and director see so much potential in you. Because of this, they would like you to help with administrative tasks as well as work with the children in the infant to Pre-K facility.
Your director knows that your current classroom is meeting NAEYC Standards; however, they want you to help enhance this classroom and the facility so Bright Futures Early Learning Center earns a 5-star rating.
Using a Word Document, a scratch piece of paper, or any other sketching tools, brainstorm a very basic outdoor space that can work for all ages. Carefully consider NAEYC Standard #9 as you build your outdoor space.
In your initial post,
Describe the space that you created and justify your design using NAEYC Standard #9.
Address all five bullet points from NAEYC Standard #9 and discuss how your design meets each requirement.
To help give your peers a visual of your idea, attach the image of your design to your discussion response. (This is recommended, but not required.)
