You’ve Got Early Childhood All Wrong | Haneefah Shuaibe-Peters | TEDxUnionCity

Pre-school is more than kindergarten readiness. It's a significant social experience where kids work on their personality and how to work with one another. Haneefah Shuaibe-Peters talks about how pre-school is really pre-society. Haneefah Shuaibe-Peters has worked in the field of early education for over 13 years. She holds a Masters in Early Childhood Education from San Francisco State University and has an extensive background in early childhood training and college instruction. She is currently in pursuit of her Doctorate in Educational Leadership: Early Childhood. Her specialty areas include infant toddler care, pre-school environments, parent education and professional development. As a Bay Area native and mother of two, she is most passionate about providing ECE professionals with practical tools for providing excellent care to young children, while also supporting the families they serve. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

    This was excellent. I run my childcare center like this. The first thing I tell parents is, I don't teach them how to read, or memorize numbers/letters /shapes etc. I teach them how to learn. I give them the opportunity to make friends, be confident, ask questions, compromise with one another. To take care of others and basically how to be people. It works much, much better. Thank you for sharing.

    Wow! I’m so glad someone understands this. I own a preschool program in my home. I have my BA in ECE and I’m so sick of people believing a successful preschooler needs to know phonics before entering Kindergarten. I always tell parents that their are very smart people in prison. Children need to learn social skills and healthy self awareness before they can be taught all the phonic sounds. It makes our jobs as teachers very challenging.

    I so agree with her that Preschool is more about all the different types of play so the children can learn communication skills, social skills, motor skills, and themselves. They can barely tie their shoes or go to the bathroom at Preschool age, yet in Preschool we are forcing them to learn all these academic skills they really aren't ready for yet. We need to let them play still and be kids before they lose this when they go to Kindergarten. I think she is awesome in what she is telling us. I just wish that her video went a bit longer to hear more of her knowledge in what Preschool should be.

    Love love love love!!! As a fellow Preschool Teacher myself, I agree 100%! I tell my parents before the first day of class that if the children feel safe, loved, and connected then the learning will happen naturally and this is created when you view conflict as a teachable moment. Thank you for sharing and I wish you well.

    I loved this, and then I read in the description that she is a Bay Area native like me! and went to the same school as me? I agree with everything she said, except the part about people with higher education being more likely to send their kids to preschool. People are working in grocery stores and hotels, and they need affordable, quality childcare. But that could be a different discussion. I hope I can meet her one day

    growing up i thought that school was merely a social world divided between the joyful frolicking with friends and being harried by bullies. learning was something i did largely on my own. i feel as if my son does a lot of his learning on his own as well, on line media really facilitates self-learning. and pre-school is most assuredly better seen as a place for social skill development than "learning"

    This is how I teach too! Hi tell the parents of the children joining my class each year that my responsibility is to help them become successful citizens. If they can’t enter play or have conflict resolution or have empathy how do we expect them to be successful in life? I also teach them self help skills and give them opportunity to fill proud of themselves for accomplishing the tasks for every day living in every day life. I tell the parents that the letters and numbers and all of that will come in time but it’s important to have social emotional skills first!

    Hi there! May I ask what you disagree with? :) Just curious to get a different perspective! I can understand... some kids may show interest in these skills, and if you can make it happen in your environment, then it should be attempted. I know that when I set up these certain academic activities in my class, the kids know its for me and the parents and will walk away from it. I do have one student showing interest in numbers and letters though, so I would like to support that area for them!

    I agree with you, both CAN be taught in preschool, but which one is more important? How often did you see miscommunications and disagreements between high school students, or even adults go terribly wrong? All ideology aside, if we know ourselves and develop how we interact with others, everything else falls into place.

    29/05/2023 You’ve Got Early Childhood All Wrong | Haneefah Shuaibe-Peters Jadi dalam video ini si speaker adalah guru tk gitu dan udah ngajar selama beberapa tahun, kemudian dia bilang katanya tk itu salah ngajarin gitu atau terlalu cepat dah, jadi dia cerita tentang pengalaman orang tua si anak yang sengaja sekolahin di tk supaya bisa ditinggal gitu dan kemudian baru kemudian bisa kerja nyari duit, terus orang orang mikirnya tk itu bagus karena bisa ngajarin banyak hal kepada anaknya tetapi ternyata menurut si speaker itu ga malah di tk kayak ga belajar tentang itu jadinya berantem. Jadi seharusnya sebagai orang tua kita ngajarin anak kita dulu bagaimana sosial bekerja, moral,empati, dll dan juga bisa mengajari anaknya menjadi seorang leader yaitu yang melakukan progress setiap hariya dan terakhir, If you want to know how you contribute to society, reflect on your childhood. sekian
