Reflection
Drawing on a minimum of two resources shared throughout the module, compose a post reflecting on how this week’s material connects to the early childhood setting and to your future/current practice as an early childhood educator.
In your post, please discuss:
- How your awareness of stress and resilience has changed and/or contributed to your overall understanding of children’s health and well-being;
- The connections you are making between the module material and your future/current work with young children (connection to practice); and
- The role of community in supporting children’s health and well-being.
