Entry 3 Write a short reflection on how your values and beliefs are reflected in the example you have provided for Entry 2, and any strengths and areas for improvement. You may like to reflect on: Do my practices match my values and beliefs? How is this evident in my practices? What are my strengths in relation to developing relationships with children? Are there any concerns I have when it comes to working with children? What would I like to develop my skills in? Example: Firstly, I thanked T for bringing his shell in for me to look at and thought about the connection between family and the service. I was able to ask him questions about the shell and gave him the opportunity to further his interest by providing him with research ideas to find out more objects that he could find. To further extend his interest and knowledge I could also think about other experiences such as adding sea creatures to water trough, adding shells to drawing and art area. Reflection
