I had modelling clay at home, so I used this as my play doh for the class. I made two frogs sitting on a lilypad with a mushroom umbrella. I enjoyed playing with the play doh and I enjoyed the sticky feeling in my hands as I moulded it. I had red, white, blue, yellow and black colours, so I had to mix the colours together to make some of the colours I needed.

I wanted to make my Code of Behaviour poster from the point of view from the child as if they were to say the words with their own voice.
I used imagery that the child would most likely be familiar to, such as a hug from an adult, an encouraging high-five, and playing with toys with an adult. I chose these images as I believe they are pictures the child could identify with and be easier for them to understand.
I chose images with children of different ethnicities, so all children would feel included.

In work when I get a complaint from a customer - sit in the office for five minutes, take deep breaths and remind myself it is not personal. Make myself a cup of tea and make myself less tense. Talking it out with my manager the next day and figure out the next steps together.

My setting is StartBright in Balgaddy, Lucan.
It is a part-time, sessional setting with 38 children aged between two years to six years. They use a play-based curriculum as they believe that "children learn best through play and a child led curriculum".
My setting is a non-profit, community based setting, that is located in an area experiencing disadvantage. Their aim is to deliver inclusive, affordable and accessible childcare to all, so they do accept all funding available to the parents.
I used my settings online website and their parent handbook to gather the information about my setting, and I think it gives me a clear view for where I will be heading in September.

Hello! My name is Emma Todd and I am a student in TUDublin Tallaght Campus studying Early Childhood Care and Education. I am in my second year of this course, and on my second semester of this year.
This E-Portfolio is intended to document my learning over the course of the next 11 weeks (22nd of February 2021 - 10th of May 2021). This E-Portfolio will take place before my college placement, which will take place in September 2021, and will show my progress of how I intend to support children's learning, and how my off-site workshops have made me grow into a competent student ECCE practitioner.

I will be sharing my:
- Reflections
- Workshops Tasks
- Code of Behaviour Poster
- Activity Flyers
- Observations
- Plans
- Assessments
- Challenges

I have also colour coded from which lecture each workshop came from:
Tracey - Yellow
Julie - Pink
Sorca - Green
Offline - Blue

In the Role Play section of the ECCE room, technology can further enhance learning opportunities for the childrens' problem solving and mathematical development. By including the likes of calculators, keyboards, phones, remote controls, scales, tills and card machines into the Role Play area, children will be surrounded by the resources that will encourage the children's' mathematical thinking and the language surrounding it.
