When I look at the code’s there are a lot codes that I think are valuable with in my degree but these three are the ones that I find to be the ones that I find the most important. The first one is, to support the right of each child to play and learn in an inclusive environment that meets the needs of children with and without disabilities. I think that this is very important because children learn the best with play. With play children learn the importance of fine and big motor skills. They learn the meaning of sharing, what are the right and wrong ways of playing with others. They also just learn how to use things the proper way to act and I fell as though I could go on and on. Play is one of the most importance part of child development, without it children’s life I feel as though there life might not be complete.  

Second I think is important is, to ensure that each child’s culture, language, ethnicity, and family structure are recognized and valued in the program. I think that this might not of been important to a lot of people 40-50 years ago. As society is changing people who work with children need to change as well. I feel as this is importance because different people with different background have what they think is right and what’s wrong way of doing things in there society. For an example a family structure might not celebrate any holidays. If you have tacks for a child that does have children celebrate holidays, you might have to think of a different way to do your activities so that child doesn’t feel left out or at fault for the other kids are missing an activity. It all comes down to being able to not just help 90% of the children in your class but to help everyone in your classroom.

The third one I though of was to develop relationships of mutual trust and create partnerships with the families we serve. I feel as though if you don’t have the trust of the family members of every child than you are not going to get the best relationship out of that child. Building a relationship with there family helps the home life. If the parents trust you and respect you than they are more likely going to follow your advice when it comes to helping there own child out. With the trust of the parents they are going to talk good things about you at home which in turns will make it so the child will respect and trust you more. I believe that you not only have to win over the child but you have to win over the family. This way you are bettering the child all around and not just 50%.
