Reflection on the Code of Ethics

After reviewing the code of ethics, these are the three that stood out to me.
 
P-1.2—We shall care for and educate children in
positive emotional and social environments that are
cognitively stimulating and that support each child’s
culture, language, ethnicity, and family structure.
 
I-1.5—To create and maintain safe and healthy settings
that foster children’s social, emotional, cognitive, and
physical development and that respect their dignity
and their contributions.
It is important that children have a safe enviornment to learn in. As educators we have a duty to provide a learning enviroment that supports the children in all ways.
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.
As educators, it is also important that we continue to increase our knowlege. We should be informed of all issues that involve the early childhood profession.
