1. Reflection
My strength is that I can make correct decision when I meet discipline
encounter, and I can confront with children. I am patient when children take
time to accept limit. I use positive words to tell children what is my expectation.
I build good relationship with children, and willingly cooperate with me because
they trust me when I love them genuinely. I explain the reason of the rule and
help them understand. I am highly responsive to children. I use firm voice and
facial expression to communicate with them.
Next time, I will bring more toys to daycare to avoid fighting. I will use
redirection strategy by offering another choice to children. I will write down
event sampling to observe turn taking skill, and analyze children’ temperament.
Based on my observation, I can use different strategies to guide children
effectively. I will let another teacher write down the observation when I interact
with children in order to reflecting “on how my personality, temperament and
moods impacts my ability to guide children effective” (Week1 handout).
