Module 4 Assignment 2: Turning Daily Caregiving Routines into Language and Literacy Learning
Overview
Infants and toddlers develop language and early literacy skills through relationships with responsive adults, watching and listening to adults, repetition, and experiencing routines that engage their senses. For this assignment, you will focus on creating daily caregiving experiences that engage the senses of the little ones in their care.
Instructions
Your task is to create daily caregiving experiences that engage the senses of infants and toddlers. You will select 2 of the following daily caregiving categories: diapering and toileting; feeding; napping; transition to outside; and hand washing. Using this Daily Caregiving Routines template, read the example provided, and complete the chart. Complete all 12 boxes. (That is 2 categories times 3 age groups.)
The following resources have ideas for turning daily caregiving routines into language and literacy learning. You should investigate at least 3 of them (The links to the resources can be found in the CareGiving folder in Read/View in the Module 4 Content):
