As an early childhood educator, graduates will support children as they learn through play. A student's role will be to create developmentally appropriate curriculum and design inviting and effective quality learning environments. Students will learn how to develop holistic programs that include early literacy and language, creative arts, numeracy, and open-ended play experiences both indoors and outdoors. Their responsibilities will include working alongside colleagues to build relationships with children and families, community partners and other professionals.
