Competency Goal 1

In order to establish and maintain a safe, healthy, learning environment, I do the following: I always check and clean the classroom for safety and teach them to be safe. In health i promote exercise and teach healthy eating habits. Lastly in the learning environment I like to do that in a fun matter because my kids love to have fun and it captures their attention. To keep a safe classroom my goal is that I'm always checking my classroom and its surroundings sp that there free from of harm and to prevent accidents from occurring. To meet those goals I set my classroom organized so no one gets hurt and check the toys to see if there not broken or loose to prevent accidents as well. I provide them with knowledge of how and what we have to do be safe in fire and tornado emergency and we do drills. I make sure that every student of mine is always signed in and out by their parent or guardian. I check the classroom for safety plugs in the wall outlets, that all the toys are sanitized as well as mats, tables, chairs. To establish a healthy classroom I provide an environment full of nutrition and to prevent the spread of disease. This means we offer a healthy snack during different times of the day. They are getting a balanced meal and right size portions for their age group. I have my students wash their hands several times of the day to wash the germs off and prevent sickness. I always teach them and reinforce how to wash their hands with every student. I also clean the toys and centers so that germs won't be there and if I see a child put a toy in their mouth I take it and clean and leave it to the side to air out. We also do exercise to be healthy we go outside twice a day and we have 15 minutes of free play and 15 minutes of structured play. To promote a creative learning I provide my students with many activities throughout the day. We have different learning centers for the children to explore and learn in. I have my classroom decorated

    To establish and maintain a safe, healthy learning environment I model safety practices and healthy routines in an environment that supports development and growth in these areas. My goal is to provide a clean healthy environment that meets each child’s physical needs. Making sure the classroom and playground are clean and safe at all times reduces the number of injuries of children while they are in my care. One of the ways I do this is by supervising children at all times by sight and sound even during nap times. Making sure all outlets are covered so children can’t access them. I make sure inside as well as outside there is nothing children can harm themselves on such as sharp objects or small items they can choke on. I ensure that all chemicals and cleaning supplies are put away out of the reach of children or stored in locked cabinets. I am certified in First Aid and CPR, which makes me knowledgeable of caring for accidents or injuries.…

    Children are not very self aware of what causes others to get sick whether its by someone else or by objects they play with.

Around the room on days where there is or was a sick child present I do extra sanitary measures while children are in my care to prevent the germs from spreading. To accomplish this I always make sure that the bathroom is clean and stocked with toilet paper-soap-and paper towels, I have children wash hands regularly before and after meals-after using the rest room (we also have a instructions in bathrooms to tell and show proper hand washing)-after coming in from outside-and any other time it washing is needed, We have a separate specially equipped body fluid kit with instructions on how to clean, sanitize, and dispose of any bio-hazards properly, toys that are played with by any child who is sick immediately gets sanitized after use (if cant fully sanitize yet put up and away form children till can), and bedding for each child is labeled and cleaned at the end of each week.

I have the children wash their hands during similar times and ensure that they do it properly. Cleaning and sanitizing play areas daily and mouthed toys are immediately removed from the play area and sanitized at the end of the day.…
