Community Circle
You always have the right to pass!
Something I need to feel safe and secure…

Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs
Abraham Maslow(1908 – 1970) “The fact is that people
are good, Give people affection and security, and they will give affection and be secure in their feelings and their behavior.”

In what ways does this influence our work?
What happens when a child arrives at school hungry?
The very basic physiological needs supersede all others.
![Page 7: EDCI 276: Child, Family, School & Community February 2, 2010 Understanding the Child](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062317/5a4d1b2d7f8b9ab059999baa/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
What are some of the aspects of safety, beyond physical?
Children rely on predictability and routines to feel safe.
We need structure, order, protection, limits.

What does “belongingness” mean to a child?
How can we promote a sense of this in classrooms?
Is this the role of the teacher, the family, the school?
![Page 9: EDCI 276: Child, Family, School & Community February 2, 2010 Understanding the Child](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062317/5a4d1b2d7f8b9ab059999baa/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The need for self-esteem shapes how we see ourselves.
Self-esteem: Self-confidenceSelf-worthEfficacyFeeling wanted & needed
These must emerge from AUTHENTIC accomplishments.

Self-Actualization
• This is our goal for all humans.
• How can we promote this in programs that only serve the needs of a few children? Or only specific needs?
• How would this look in a child care setting or school classroom?

What is your personal hierarchy of needs?
