Create an Environmental and Health and Safety Training that you could share with your peers. Imagine you are currently working in a child care center and need to present a training on potential health and safety issues. This should include two topics from Ch. 7, two topics from Ch. 8 and one topic from Ch. 11.
The primary/main topics from chapter 7 include:
Licensing–topics in this category could include but are not limited to: local, state, and federal licensing requirements
Features of High Quality Environments–topics in this category could include but are not limited to: Developmentally appropriate practices (DAP), group size and composition, staffing ratios
Guidelines for Safe Environments–topics in this category could include but are not limited to: indoor safety, outdoor safety or transportation,
Topics from chapter 8 include:
Unintentional Injuries–topics in this category could include but are not limited to: what is unintentional injury and the information on table 8-2
Risk Management
Implementing Safety Practices–topics here could include but are not limited to: Toys and Equipment, Field trips, Pets, or Transporting children
Emergency & Disaster Preparedness–topics here could include but are not limited to: fire safety, earthquake safety, or preparing for action
Topics from chapter 11 include:
Family Involvement in Health and Safety Education
Teacher Inservice in Health and Safety Education
Effective Instructional Design–topics here could include but are not limited to: topic selection, behavioral objectives, content presentation, or evaluation
Activity Plans–topics here could include but are not limited to: Yoga for wellness, understanding feelings, germs and illness prevention, hand washing, dressing right for the weather, tooth-brushing, dental health, fire safety, safety in cars, or poisonous substances
Your topics should include information about your center’s policies, what is required legally (rules/guidelines), best practices, making sure that you are taking the developmental stages of your students into consideration, and listing the potential risks or safety hazards of your particular center. You can either submit this as a word document or a Power Point. Please be sure you are detailed in the information you provide. If you were to present this, you want your peers to come away with new information.
