Beginnings

How I view my practice at the start of my current training

This practitioner has not chosen to share this information at this time.

Their laughter, their directness, making things with them. Understanding how to engage with and support their days

Supporting children and staff and empowering families , learning developing and having fun

Most of the time , but when I am overwhelmed by the needs of the centre I can get impatient and less child centred

Environment: outdoors is child centred but not enough autonomy Indoors the children are not being held and given enough options and opportunities to gather so we don’t have enough unity and connectiveness
Materials not enough modelling
Procedures not enough , too much focus on staff needs who struggle with change - various clashes and suspicions

Not enough it feels like a box of frogs and we ar won’t a group

I feel that my practice is froebelian I am all about connections, relationships, autonomy and respecting and benefiting from being outside

Social justice and equity allows me to advocate for children and families and staff

That my voice can be heard over the hierarchy and fear and my own self limitations

Finding the time to discuss what is important getting beyond cynicism
