Philosophy Statement
A philosophy statement describes what you believe to be true about young children, how they learn best, teaching methods, curriculum, what is the teachers role, etc. Philosophy statements are helpful when looking for a position in a childrens center to give the director more information about who you are and how you perceive early childhood education. Since early childhood programs have specific program philosophies, the director would want to be sure that you would be a good fit in their center. Therefore, write this as if you were going to include it with a resume to a potential new employer.
For this assignment, you will write your own philosophy statement. Your paper should be around two pages in length- double spaced. In your paper, need to include the following (make sure you address the entire question):
How do young children learn best? Describe.
What is the teachers role in childrens growth and development? (include physical, cognitive, social, emotional development)
What theories influence your opinions? How?
Is there a type of early childhood program you might be more drawn to work in? Why?
