Weekly Question - How do you make 'reflection' a cool tool?

A problem shared is a problem halved:  a reflection shared is a step towards inclusive practice!  What mechanisms do you have in place to enable quality reflection?  Are there barriers?  How are they overcome?  Listed below are a number of discussion prompts for this blog and the early years education community.  Your reflection could be the start of another.  Use the comments section to participate.

  • Have you ever used an observation tool to support social and emotional development and review challenging behaviours?
  • What supports are in place to encourage reflection as stimulating for educators rather than confronting?
  • Do you make informal discussions count?
  • How do you connect your reflections to your intentional teaching?
  • How do you share your reflections with families to encourage positive relationship building?
  • Are you following any particular support / mentoring / coaching / resource to assist in your reflections?
  • Are you practicing video / voice memo / recorded reflection? 
  • Do these vignettes from NQS - PLP provide some support to you as a way to reflect? Connecting with practice - Videos for EYLF & NQS
Reflect - go on!
