I have found that putting myse.lf in a challenging learning role supports me in understanding how young people feel when put in a position of learning new things outside their experience. How vital it is to make everything relevant and exciting; how small steps must be acknowledged and how to mix challenge with the known. I am learning Greek and, apart from it being very difficult and extremely challenging, I am learning more about how to provide a safety net for young learners so they can dare to fly.

It is good to put ourselves in the children's shoes and appreciate that they may not be as confident as we might first think. Sometimes, children just learn to go with the flow. Good luck with the Greek!

In a setting i worked in we had a short time each week to have a WIFLE. What I Feel Like Expressing'. It was so everyone felt listened to. For someone like myself who is not very confident in speaking in groups it was a good thing.

WIFLE - What I Feel Like Expressing - very useful too.

Great focus, Person/child centered to me leans into Carl Rogers three core conditions of Empathy, Congruence and unconditional positive regard

Regulation policy is more learner's centered, my thoughts

Yes!

Behaviour management policy is more objective
@sparkearlyyears 7 ай бұрын
I think 'behaviour management' is about controlling the behaviour for the adult's convenience perhaps, whereas, a regulation policy, as you have stated Jane is more central to meeting the child's needs and helping them progress. Hope all is going well with you! Thank you for your comments :-)

Play helps children to think critically in an enabling environment

Certainly Jane. Setting up opportunities with outcomes in mind is great and the child will generally gain much more than what we planned. :-)

Wow!! What a wonderful time you had by the looks of things. Their faces with the playdough reminded me of my son when he explored it for the very first time and reminded me to make some for my daughter to explore for the first time.

Yes, they really enjoyed exploring what the dough did - one boy not so keen.

My son's nursery did a lot - software plus detailed handovers plus parent evenings plus regular newsletters plus social media (private group for families) and general open door policy. I'm not sure how differentiated this was though, I don't know how they sought to engage the parent that didn't download the app or ever turn up for meetings.
