(Unit 6) Topic 10: Managing Your Time

1 Clock Hour of Early Childhood Education

Keep Calm and Remain Prepared

​Topic 10 Page 8

You can organize until you’re blue in the face, eliminate tons of unnecessary paperwork, delegate to your heart’s content and do what you can to control your time but all of that will be in vain if you are not prepared. Preparation in childcare and education is probably the key to surviving many adverse and difficult situations. Typically, a child will present some type of challenge to the usual routine of the day.    

Teachers who plan ahead for these unforeseen circumstances have the best results in working through these types of challenges.   

Being prepared and having plans in place directly support time management skills and make it possible to avoid massive amounts of lost time. Time often gets away from people but with careful preparation and planning it does not need to especially in the case of a surprise event. Having supplies, a clear plan, and the proper training to execute the plan gives educators a leg up on handling certain situations.​   

The smallest bit of preparation in the beginning will help you avoid more lost time in the end.
