Module 12 research and reflection

ÿ
Step 1:
You were introduced to ACEs in Module 11. Now, you will ÿlook closely at the ten types ofÿchildhood trauma measured in the ACE ÿStudy.ÿClick onÿhttps://acestoohigh.com/got-your-ace-score/
As ÿyou study the information, you may associate the ten types and begin to ÿreflect on your own childhood experience. Complete the ACEs ÿquestionnaire to determine your ACE score.ÿÿ
Feel free to share ÿyour own experience as you feel comfortable. Whether you share from ÿpersonal experience or not, this will give you a deeper understanding of ÿwhat determines ACEs.ÿ How does this knowledge help you to provide ÿsupport for children enrolled in your classroom or program?ÿ
Step 2:
Now ÿthat you know a little more about ACEs and how they are scored, watch ÿthe following video (https://youtu.be/bOoNIpr-7Tk) about Addie, an adult who has struggled due to ÿAdverse Childhood Experiences. This is a powerful message of what adult ÿlife can and most often does look like when ACEs go untreated or ÿunsupported. Note the statistics she quotes about ACEs scores of 6 or higher. ÿThese states are also discussed at length in the website you reviewed ÿin step 1. These facts are astounding and important information for ÿearly childhood providers to know and understand.ÿÿ
ÿ
Part 3:
Now ÿthat you have learned more about ACEs, it is important that you also ÿunderstand how to differentiate. Negative behaviors are guaranteed to ÿarise when working with or around ALL young children. However, not all ÿchildren who exhibit negative behaviors have been exposed to ACEs.ÿ ÿLikewise, not all negative behaviors require adult intervention. What ÿbehaviors warrant immediate attention? How will you know which positive ÿguidance strategy to employ? Watch this video to learn more about ÿpositive guidance. Think about how positive guidance is described and ÿwhat behaviors require an adult to provide positive guidance.
What should be the focus of the positive guidance strategy? Why?
What are two examples from the video for positively guiding ÿchildren’s behavior? Provide two of your examples of ways of guiding ÿchildren’s behavior.
