Your Question?
Information on social group/cultural beliefs and home lifestyles as well as styles of discipline

What is your answer so far or What have you done so far as an attempt to solve this question?
I believe that is really important to realise that we live in a multicultural society and understand that different people have different beliefs, expectations and styles of discipline, so as an educators we need to be aware and sensitive to the different cultural background and expectations of the child’s family and find a balance within our own values and beliefs but also those of our coworkers and the children and families at the Centre to provide environments that are inclusive and Supportive families but in other hand we need to be very clear of what behavior is expected for everyone involve at the Centre.

Description and Message:
this is my answer so far, now my teacher suggest me to add some
strategies that you would need to take to promote positive and appropriate behaviour guidance when the home child rearing practices may be considered as inappropriate guidance in your professional views.


the only strategy I can think of now are:
Praising and rewarding positive behaviour
being a role modelling
set up clear routines for certain activities e.g. story time, meal times, tidying up,getting ready to go out, sharing toys etc.
Use stories and songs as a strategy for encouraging/supporting positive behaviour.

is this correct? Am I in the right dirrection?

Thanks for your help
