Using your skill development from Assignment 1, you'll collect four resources in response to the scenarios presented throughout the unit, one of each scenario. Note: The resources you select need to respond to each scenario.  An example of a resource could be an ‘All about me’ book that supports a child’s transition to childcare. Another example could be an app for an iPad and explanation on how this would be used.  Each item in the folio will include a descriptive rationale that discusses how it can be related to supporting and understanding the behaviour described in the scenario. The rationale needs to include a behaviour learning theory and make specific links to theoretical frameworks, principles, policies and practices related to each scenario. The information below provides a guide to the key points to focus on. Collaborative discussion activities based on the scenarios in the relevant weeks will assist you with the preparation and ideation of items for your folio.   Folio format Each item must be clearly labelled with the week number and topic of the scenario (listed below). Each resource must have an accompanying written rationale of approx. 500 words and include the following (500 words x 4 scenario = 2000 words): · Information of the resource chosen. · Link to theoretical frameworks, principles, policies and practices related to each scenario, such as the Australian Curriculum (AC) for primary school years (Janine and Michael) and the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) for early childhood (Margot and Bertie) within the scenario you respond to. · The use of learning behaviour theory to support your analysis of the principle(s) and practice(s) being reflected in the resource (note: that the theory/theories you draw upon must be selected from those covered in this unit of study). Check the relevant week in the table to see when that case will be covered and discussed. · Clearly articulate and identify the behaviour(s), and identify positive/preventative model(s) of behaviour management, being reflected in the resource. · Include an explanation of how the resource will assist you to establish and maintain a safe, supportive and positive and productive learning environment. · In the discussion think about how the resource will be introduced in the learning sequence in response to the scenario and consider how this adheres to positive models of behaviour management.   Utilise the expertise of your eLA to question whether the resource you have chosen to include meets the assignment criteria.   Week Topic Scenario 3 Relationship with self  Margot is a 2-year-old girl who's having trouble transitioning into childcare two days per week. She's an only child and has been transitioning to childcare since her mother returned to work. She's refusing to eat and sleep while in the setting and she is persistently calling for 'mama' or 'dada'. However, she plays well alongside the other children and appears very happy engaging with the experiences which are planned for her; especially looking at books, playing with blocks and collecting balls. 4 Relationships with others  Janine is an 8-year-old girl at a public school in regional Australia. Her aunty and uncle have recently separated and she's very close to them and her cousins. Janine's father has stepped in to assist with supporting the cousins. Janine is feeling left out, alone and replaced by her father's actions. As a result, Janine has started to create controlling rules for herself and others at school by bossing friends around and taking charge in all class tasks. Her friends are starting to call her 'bossy boots' and she's yelling back, causing friction and upset to the classroom harmony. Her teacher has noticed her controlling behaviour and has spoken to her at length about the importance of letting others be themselves. Janine is upset about this and has started to tell her mum she doesn't like her teacher or want to go to school. 5 Relationship with the curriculum  Bertie has excellent communication skills, numeracy skills and an interest in anything scientific. He is 4-years old and his parents believe he's gifted. Bertie is not engaging with any of the children at kindergarten and prefers to undertake the experiences in isolation. Bertie prefers to sit quietly and undertake pencil and paper activities, similar to what he does at home. His teacher has tried to engage him in several experiences but is being pressured by his parents to complete a report so they can enroll him in an exclusive school early. His teacher is concerned that although Bertie has areas of strength his social skills need to develop and he refuses to engage with creative and physical activities at all. 6 An enabling learning environment  Michael is in grade 6 and he's taking days off school for illness. Owing to the amount of days he misses from school, he has not been able to make real connections with his peers and as a result, has no friends at school. Michael's illness prevents him from attending school as he has a degenerative health condition which means he needs to attend a Children's Hospital across the city.  At times, he's in hospital care for up to two to three weeks.  He has a school nurse, which was fine when he was younger, but he's now becoming resentful toward his medical carers, teacher and parents. He has missed a significant part of the school curriculum.

    Children’s Book: When Mama Comes Home Tonight by Eileen Spinelli
A lullaby book that romanticizes the remains of the day and the reunion of the mother and her child.
    Relationship with self
Resource focus: Individual child
Scenario: Margot
    Rationale (500 word)
    
Margot is a 2 year old
child who is refusing to eat and sleep while in child-care since her mother returned to work. She continuously calls for her parents. However she is happy to engage in playing and enjoys going through books.
This resource addresses the behaviour of Margot of not eating and sleeping while in the childcare and constantly calling her “mama” or ‘dada’.
Margot is showing signs of separation distress. Margot shows signs of connectedness with the activities that are introduced to her and plays well with the children but lacks feelings of belonging to the place as she is constantly worried about meeting her parents or being with them.
According to behaviourism theory of learning her actions are conditioned by her life at home with her mother and father (Wenger, 2009). Being the only child she has been given constant attention by her parents and is conditioned to get them whenever she calls ‘mama’ or ‘dada’. While at the facility she is unable to get the same thus causing her to get anxious and awakening a fear that they might not comeback. This results in her avoiding food and sleep which could be due to her feeling lack of safety.
The selected resource which is a book named “When Mama Comes Home Tonight” talks about how the day passes. It will help Margot develop a sense of belonging and enjoying herself as she spends the day on her own away from her mother. At the same time it’s a lullaby which will soothe her to sleep and feel safe as it talks about her mother. Margot seems to respond well to activities designed for her and sounds interested in books. As a result she will be more willing to accept it and this will help her develop a sense of belonging as it respects her thoughts about her mother as she clearly misses her and the book talks about her mother being back and their happy reunion.
Margot’s feelings and anxiety need to be respected. She also needs to be given enough time and a great amount of attention and encouraged through positive reinforcements.
The resource i.e. the book of lullabies will be introduced to her as a ‘Mama’s’ book and read to her in a dimmed setting on her bed. Once she sleeps and feels calm and at home, the same can be used as an incentive to eat food. According to behaviourism, using rewarding behaviour helps build desired behaviour and aids in better adjustment. This aspect will be used to encourage Margot to sleep and eat by providing the book as an incentive and will help her adjust more readily to the environment and build a sense of belonging at the same time.
The Early Years Learning Framework for Australia should be used to address the subject in the scenario.
