My job in promoting development is gaining my students and families trust first. When my students trust me they are more likely to want to learn from me. Every child has separate needs than another and that is also my job to take care of. Fun In the classroom is helpful because when kids are having fun they’re more likely to want to learn,
Influences on Development
Things that influence learning for children are genetic factors, environmental, the child’s family life, parenting styles, and teachers and schools.
