Reflection Three

I really liked the set up the children had playing in a mock office. Maybe they've seen their parents with an office at home set up this way too and were making these connections in their role playing experiences.

 Working together collaboratively as a team, but I could see by reading your reflection that D certainly was taking the position of leader and delegating the jobs.  To take this interest of office work further for the three children it might be possible for them to actually use a digital camera themselves if permitting and take photos they would like and print them off using the computer as they were doing in their role playing.

Great reflection, good idea about continuing role playing in further aspects of their day to day play at your centre.

Reflection One

When I saw the words yummy, yummy and the lovely picture of the cupcakes, I just had to choose this reflection to read.  Great activity for the children to be involved in, I agree that the recipe cards work well.  This I have in my own centre and they work well with the children as they physically have a visual to use to follow instructions.  It does include literacy skills and maths concepts as you've mentioned, great way to put these into the children's learning on a daily basis in an activity that they are going to enjoy doing.  I hope this continues at your centre, and maybe the children could help make more of your recipe cards so that baking can be done on a regular basis.

Carry on with the baking I say, well done with the preparation of using recipe cards, a system that works well with children.

A blast from the past.  What a cool idea of bringing this old electric typewriter from an interest of writing letters.  As children have no fear in learning new things or having a go at using new equipment, it looks like they picked up very quickly how to use the typewriter.  They have learnt by doing and engaging in problem solving their way through to finding out how to use the electric typewriter rather easily.

If the interest continues on writing letters, maybe a post shop could be set up so that they could write letters to their peers in the centre and post to one another.  A trip to the post office could be another way of continuing the interest as well.

Great reflection, what item from the past will you bring in next to spark the children's interest I wonder?

Wow, what an awesome feeling it must have been for you for A to approach you in the way she did and this comes from having built a good relationship with her in the first place.  As you've typed in your reflection A has obviously been around someone that plays music from their computers and has realised that maybe she could ask for a song to be played this way too.  A has through problem solving made a decision to ask you for help and to have music played on the laptop this way as well. 

This could be a start of a new interest for A by wanting to listen to music this way, it can be a great social interaction experience and maybe by introducing different types of music could further her interests in dance as well.  Putting actions to the music that A is listening to is allowing her gross motor skills to be developed and certainly her social skills as well.

Great reflection, keep empowering A to express herself freely through the use of music and movement.
