Celebrating the Environment This Holiday Season
As the holiday season approaches, we gather together to reflect on the past year and all of the things we are thankful for. One thing we should include on this list is the bounty that Mother Nature bestows on us with every season—from the blue skies, to the much-needed rain, to the sun rays that stretch over us while we're at play, to the wintry evenings that make us thankful for the warmth of family and friends. Why not use this time to emphasize to young ones the importance of caring for the environment? Live by example and take steps to help children be environmental stewards at an early age. This correlates to Preschool POCET™ Developmental Guideline SE10: Demonstrates awareness of community helpers and environment.

The Preschool Observation Checklist and Evaluation Tool (POCET) was created to assist early childhood educators in organizing and maintaining an assessment system to monitor each child's development and to guide instructional practices. This individualization tool is organized to support any preschool curriculum chosen for the classroom. POCET is divided into six easy steps and two binders, and includes materials to individualize instruction for up to 25 children.
