I believe as a future teacher, I should create a supportive , challenging and respectful environments for my students. That is to say:

1-Supportive Environments:

n  Time for interaction with children, encourage them and help them

n  Developmentally based curricula

2-Challenging Environments:

n  Ensuring active involvement

n  Laying the foundation for school readiness

n  Providing materials and activities

n  THE CAREGIVERS!!

3-Respectful Environments:

n  listening., observing, being aware of children’s verbal and nonverbal communications

n  Culturally appropriate practices
