Component 1- Child and Setting Profile
A. Describe Child
Name: K
Age: 3 years and 5 months
Gender: Male
Characteristics: Hes a shy child. K loses interest in
centers, activities, and toys after only a few minutes
and he doesnt always want to jump immediately into
something else. He periodically hides behind doors and
cabinets alone. It would be most helpful if the preschool
used transitional activities or materials. He doesnt
have a favorite center, activity, or toy; he just goes with
the flow and plays with whatever is available. I have
noticed that K is very observant of other children and
prefers solitary play.
B. Describe Classroom Setting
Size: The three-year-old classroom is a nice happy
medium. It could use more space to allow multiple
children to fit in the centers at once and room to add
more centers, but it happens to be the largest
classroom in the preschool. This particular classroom is
handicap accessible.
Location: The three-year-old room is located on the
right side, in the middle of the central hallway.
Organization: For the amount of space offered and the
number of three-year-old children in this classroom, I
would say it is very organized. There are five centers
throughout the classroom. These centers include
Science, Literacy, Block, Dramatic Play, and Sand Play.
The centers, materials, and equipment are labeled,
most of which being at the childrens eye level.
Materials/Equipment: The classroom is fully stocked
with duplicate toys that are developmentally
appropriate for three-year-olds. They have accessible
books, but not many. Almost every material and piece
of equipment in the classroom is labeled.
Access Outside: Children must exit their classroom;
take a right, walk down to the end of the hallway until
they find the set of large double doors that lead to the
playground.
Restrooms: There are two restrooms and two sinks
located inside of the classroom.
Cafeteria: They eat breakfast, lunch, and snacks in the
classroom.
C. Classroom Factors that may influence Childs
Development and Learning
Positive: This classroom is handicap accessible. That
being said, if a handicapped child enrolled into the
program, they would be accommodated. The materials
and equipment are accessible, labeled, and
developmentally appropriate for three-year-olds. There
are two windows that provide children with sunlight and
somewhat, a view. This classroom is full of
environmental print, labels, and artwork made by the
children.
Negative: This classroom needs more books children
can look at during free play, they only keep very few
accessible to them therefore children fight over them.
There are no comfortable areas for children to sit and
look at books, or even space for a child to be alone. K
likes to sit by himself, do things on his own, and has
nowhere to do so. To be alone, K sits behind a tall
cabinet door or behind a large piece of furniture; I have
also noticed two other children do the same thing.
