Description

Introduction THERE IS OVERWHELMING EVIDENCE that growth and development in the social and emotional domain during the early years affects the health, wellbeing and competence of children throughout life (Denham, 2006; Mental Health Taskforce, 2004). Experiences that promote curiosity, self-confidence, engagement and satisfying reciprocal relationships have been strongly linked to high levels of self-esteem and socialisation. Therefore, the experiences children are exposed to have the potential to influence their future life trajectory that over time may become more difficult to modify (Farrar, Goldfield & Moore, 2007). More specifically, research conducted by Denham (2006) outlines the importance of social and emotional competence to school readiness, future academic performance, and success in participation and interactions with peers and adults. Support for children's social and emotional growth in early childhood programs is dependent on how well the teachers know the child and how skilled they are at gaining meaningful information about children's social and emotional knowledge, skills and dispositions, and how this information is used to create effective programs.
