You need your BA to work in the Public School system, but you may be able to get away with only an AA or AS if you want to teach in a Private school. You also need your California Teaching Credential. I don’t know what type of education you have or what degree so I couldn’t answer whether or not you need more courses. You very well may need to go back to school here in the states to receive your degree and credential.

I don’t seem to get a child..
Can i get any vdeos online about this 3 year old kid observation??

Thank you..
: )

Why would you want to watch a video? You would get a much better observation if you observe a child in a preschool classroom. Call a daycare or preschool near you and ask if you can come observe, or ask your teacher to recommend a facility where you can do your observation. You are probably going to need to spend some time volunteering in a preschool classroom anyway, so this will give you a chance to visit a center and get to know the staff and setting a little bit.

Is it a good thing to have a child begin school early? Or do you think it’s better the child waits for the starting age to begin school?

If you are suggesting enrolling a child in a pre-school program:

If the child has relatively little time with friends his/her own age, or if he/she is rather shy, mixing with a group of children in a pre-school environment really helps develop confidence and interaction skills, as well as prepare the child for a school environment and routines, which makes the first day at ‘real’ school so much easier for everyone! If the school is in the same area as the pre-school program, it’s a great way for the children to make friendships that continue into school.

From a more literacy/numeracy/curriculum viewpoint, some pre-school programs will offer children the opportunity to experience and possibly pick up the basics such as writing their own name, saying the alphabet and counting to ten or twenty. These are things that a child could also learn at home.

If, on the other hand, you’re suggesting that a child starts at regular school at the same time as children who are of the starting age, the child may not be at a disadvantage as far as the curriculum goes, but if the gap between the ages is too different the early starter may find themselves left behind as far as emotional, interpersonal and physical development goes.

…hope that helps!

Providing learning opportunities, experiences. Providing good books and other materials for the child to explore. Providing lots of hands-on. Exploring, experiencing WITH them, being ready to offer assistance IF needed, and helpful in finding or sometimes providing answers to the many questions.

READING TO THE CHILD! Lots of books of different types. Being patient to stop and really look at the pictures.

Giving of your time to the child. Learning to enjoy being with them.

Sometimes tying your hands and taping your mouth shut. So you don’t help when it is not needed or wanted, when doing it themselves will be better. Not talking too much. Letting the child observe and tell what they are learning. Answering questions only when you can’t lead/guide the child into discovering the answer for themselves.

JUST BEING THERE!

Would early child education be a good major? What else?

Early childhood would probably be the best major for you./
