A vital part of being an ECE educator is preparing activities to meet the developmental needs of the children in your care. For this part of the course project, you will develop two (2) DAP Lesson Plans that focus on social and emotional development.

To complete this assignment, do the following:

Step 1: Download the two documents below:

LessonPlanExample.docx

LessonPlanTemplate.docx

Step 2: You will create one lesson for each of the following age groups: Birth-2 years and 3 -5 years. Fill out all parts of the Lesson Plan Template for each lesson plan. Make sure that all areas of your lesson plans are specific, clear, and detailed enough to allow other individuals to implement the activity if they are not familiar with your topic.

Step 3: At the bottom of the template, be sure to explain how the activity aligns with the developmental needs of the children in their care, how the activity supports social and emotional development, and how they could be modified to meet individuals with specific learning needs.
