Early Childhood Education (ECE)   Terms of Reference   Why Is Early Childhood Education So Important?   Early childhood education has long been debated by varying opinions. Some feel that young children belong at home and separate from instruction. Others feel that the ages up to 5 years are the most important years of education. It has been said that this is the time period when the brain does the bulk of its growing. This could mean that the learning process should be introduced during these years. Being introduced to the learning process is an important step for these children. The children are not only experiencing normal brain growth, but verbal and physical skills as well. Early childhood education teachers use a variety of techniques for instructing. They use lesson plans, worksheets, and even teacher resources for these young students.   Responsibilities of the facilitators • Design and follow a complete teaching plan • Teach alphabet and numeracy along with personal, social and emotional skills • Organize learning material and resources • Use a variety of activities and instructional methods (songs, stories, media, structured games, art, outdoor activities etc) to motivate and stimulate children’s abilities • Assess students’ performance and progress to ensure they are mastering the skills on regular basis • Monitor children’s interactions and nurture cooperation and sharing • Cooperate with education staff of AVSI Requirements • Preferred working experience as a kindergarten teacher • Creative and artistic teaching abilities • Teaching and organisation skills • Patience and flexibility • Strong communication skills • BSc degree in education or relevant certificate
