In my opinion, all of these codes play an instrumental role in me being a super practitioner and advocate for children. I chose three, but they are all very important especially keeping a safe, and healthy  environment for children, fostering relationships with parents, seeing the warning signs of  deliberate neglect and many others.  Furthermore, I am going to try to be the best of the best and follow each and every code to the letter, watch out for changes in these codes.

As an educator I must assess properly with anecdotes, and gather information pertaining to the child's performance. We must always be fair and unbiased and use the appropriate tools in order to assess the child correctly b...

In Regard to the Code of Ethical Conduct and Statement of Commitment In my opinion, Every code I have read is truly very important because they are very much needed, but the three that stood out are as follows: I-1.1 — To be familiar with the knowledge base of early childhood care and education and to stay informed through continuing education and training. his code is significant in my profession because if  I do not gain the knowledge of Early Childhood Education and keep up with the trends as wells  as continuing to learn . It will be in possible to teach young children. An educator must keep up with new methods and strategies in order to give children what is needed to go to the next lev T els. I-1.11 — To provide all children with experiences in a language that they know, as well as support children in maintaining the use of their home language and in English.
