assignment 5

Component by component, your early childhood program is coming together.  This week, you added to your knowledge by reading Chapters 6 and 9 in your text and reflecting on the early childhood facility.  For this assignment, reflect on what you have learned about creating quality learning environments.

Assignment Instructions

Create a brochure that describes your program to potential clients (parents) through graphics and words.

Design a trifold, six-panel brochure that depicts the following:

• Formalize the physical layout of your center in a floor plan graphic that includes the classroom, play, and support spaces. (Remember to include easily supervised restrooms and planning/meeting spaces for adult personnel.)
• Plan for furnishings and learning equipment and justify how your design and plan supports developmentally appropriate practices.
• Explain how the total environment is in alignment with your program’s proposed vision, mission, and philosophy, and directly supports the growth and development of children.
• Include graphics and images to support your presentation.
• Choose an appropriate software program to create your brochure, but if you use a specialized graphics program, be sure to save your document in a portable format such as a .PDF or a .JPEG before submitting it to your Instructor. You must be able to paste it into a document for this activity and the Signature Assignment.

References: Support your brochure with a minimum of three scholarly resources. In addition to these specified resources, other appropriate scholarly resources may be included.
