  1. It depends on the philosophy of the nursery school.  The teacher is responsible for the safety and welfare of the children in his or her care.They are expecetd to make reasonable decisions about the children under their care.  They are also responsible for formulating activities/learning centers etc to provide engaging and intereactive experiences for the children.  The level of activity of course depends on the age of the children.  The nursery teacher is also responsible for communicating with parents about any concerns about the child's behavior or development as well as to share with the parents about what their wonderful child did that day.  Take a look at the NAEYC website for some more ideas.


  2. isnt this cheating i mean how do we know you wont nick our words and stuff? im a training nursery nurse to level 3 and the college are very uptight that it has to be your own words. so why should everyone else work their asses off while there are people like you just taking the easy route and asking someone else instead of doing it like i have to and how the course description and rules say? you shouldnt be in childcare if you dont know this stuff. i started from scratch and learned from experience and thats the best way. cos copying other peoples answers aint gonna get you nowhere - yeh you'll get a job if you pass, but i guarentee years down the line, there'll be things you dont know and you'll get into a lot of trouble for it.

    delete this question and get off your *** and find out from your setting.

  3. A nursery teacher's role has to be determined by the place you work.

    I work at a place where the role of the nursery teacher is to write out lesson plans, write out observations of the children, give the children care (diapering, wiping noses, potty training, feed, etc), give the children TLC when they need it, set up the envirement to be a place to learn and grow into a wonderul young person.

    Plus, we also work on training the aids so they can be better teachers.

    The place you are wanting to work should have a job description that tells you what your roles should be.

    I know I just listed the very basics of a role of a nursery teacher. I feel a nursery teacher is so much more. I know some people say a nursery teacher is just a baby sitter, but they are not. Here is poem that was given to me and it does explain what a nursery teacher role is. (It really explains all teacher roles and what they should be no matter the age.)

    What is the role of the teacher?

    Author Unknown

    The early childhood teacher holds several roles.

    The teacher must love all of her children and treat them as equal but

    special individuals, thus she is a mother

    The teacher must ask though provoking questions and encourage

    exploration and investigation, thus she is a scientist.

    The teacher must sing loud and proud, even if she can not carry a tune,

    thus she is a musician.

    The teacher must run, hop, jump, skip, and tumble with the children,

    thus she is a gymnast.

    The teacher must share accounts of far away lands and imaginary people,

    thus she is a storyteller.

    The teacher must bandage scraped knees and kiss "ouchies", thus she is a

    nurse.

    The teacher must give words of encouragement, louder and stronger than

    anyone thought possible, thus she is a cheerleader.

    The teacher must listen with open ears and an empathetic heart, thus she

    is a friend.

    The teacher does not entertain, dictate, police, referee, lecture,

    demolish, or judge.

    The teacher is a facilitator, enables, questioner, encourager,

    organizer, nurturer, backer, advocator, and supporter.

    The early childhood teacher holds several roles, each different in

    action, but equal in importance.

    To teach is to touch a life forever. And that is what the most

    important role of the teacher is.

    Children Learn What They Live

    by Dorothy Law Nolie

    If a child lives with criticism,

    He learns to condemn.

    If a child lives with hostility,

    He learns to fight.

    If a child lives with ridicule,

    He learns to be shy.

    If a child lives with tolerance,

    He learns to be patient.

    If a child lives with encouragement,

    He learns confidence.

    If a child lives with praise,

    He learns to appreciate.

    If a child lives with fairness,

    He learns justice.

    If a child lives with security,

    He learns faith.

    If a child lives with approval,

    He learns to like himself.

    If a child lives with acceptance and friendship,

    He learns to find love in the world
