This unit is the second in a sequence of four Professional Learning experiences in which students engage with the early childhood context. Students will use the Australian Curriculum, the WA Curriculum Framework and the Early Years Learning Framework and supporting documents to plan for learning and teaching. Students will collect, analyse and use evidence about children's learning to plan, implement and evaluate lerning experiences. In addition to an on-campus component, students undertake a professional placement in a Kindergarten or Pre-primary setting for a minimum of five weeks which will provide an opportunity to connect theory with practice under the guidance of experienced professionals. Students will investigate a range of methods for engaging children and motivating them for learning.
