As we move along in our careers, there are opportunities to reflect on our teaching self, our professionalism, our place in the setting and how we can make a difference and change. Reflective practice is being able to reflect on your actions in your practice, and help you to move forward into the future. Reflective practice helps us to make sense of why we do things the way we do, and if there are ways we can improve on this. ]]> 2019-05-09 09:10:25 UTC https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/358378419 shantel01okeeffe https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/359301096 From reading the powerpoint my beginning of an understanding of reflective practice is it that its the reflection on one's self, and the different teachings they have used. I have also understood that it is reflecting on what you have done in your practice (ECE setting), and giving yourself the opportunity to look back on what you did, and how you may be able to improve that for the future in the similar circumstances. Reflective practice is something that can be used as a student as I know I reflect back on different situations to learn from them and know what I can do for next time. ]]> 2019-05-13 02:06:26 UTC https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/359301096 https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/359312233 To me reflective practice is when you choose to reflect within yourself regarding your own practice. This is a time where to can reflect on what you did well, not so well and create a strategy/plan to improve yourself within your practice. When you reflect this is giving yourself the opportunity to work on yourself for the better future. There are many different areas you can reflect on, but this is up to you whether you want to reflect on everything overall or just reflect on one certain area.  ]]> 2019-05-13 03:02:54 UTC https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/359312233 https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/359330556 2019-05-13 05:16:26 UTC https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/359330556 https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/359330557 2019-05-13 05:16:27 UTC https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/359330557 https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/359330558 My current understanding of what is reflective practice is, is to be self-aware of one's skills and knowledge and allow them to seek and gain opportunities for professional development and growth. By understanding ourselves as teachers and our ethical actions/behaviour, we can reflect on our actions/behaviour in the now and adjust, learn and evolve these ethical actions/behaviour for the better.

With this information you can then improve your teaching practice where and if needed.

Without reflective practice there is no way knowing if we are being the best possible teachers we can be. Being able to self-assess of be assess is important to help us grow.]]> 2019-05-13 23:26:45 UTC https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/359696592 https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/359715501 Reflective practice is to look closely and deliberately at your own teaching practice, it is to dig deeper and to think about your actions and the theory behind it.  Reflecting is to help you learn and have growth both professionally and personally.  Reflecting on your practice helps you to understand why you are doing certain things that work and to also look at what might not be working within your practice and correct these.

It allows teachers to make more informed adjustments to the way they teach and highlights areas which may need more work. ]]> 2019-05-15 01:28:59 UTC https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/360158072 https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/360158901 I believe reflective practice is when kaiako are self aware of their teaching and knowledge and reflecting on what they have been doing well and what they can improve on in their practice and can make them grow into the teacher that they want to be.]]> 2019-05-15 01:32:19 UTC https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/360158901 https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/360177735 Reflective practice is when you are able to reflect on your teaching practice and decisions you have made while teaching.

Also the reflective thinking we do as teachers helps us to weigh up the pros and cons and consequences of how we teach. ]]> 2019-05-15 02:48:20 UTC https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/360178470 https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/360203192 Reflective Practice is becoming self-aware of your teaching and what you are doing when teaching children, it's also about improving your teaching skills so that you can become the best teacher for the students/children that you teach.

Asking yourself "am I doing this with the best interests of the children at heart? Or is it just what is easy for me?" In doing this, Kaiako can grow and evolve in their practice, ultimately improving the overal experience for children within their care. Having the ability to notice patterns in personal teaching behaviour, times when one might become overwhlemed/frustrated, or when the teaching experience feels grounded and 'good' is so crucial to sustainable success as a Kaiako. ]]> 2019-05-15 07:59:09 UTC https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/360230197 https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/360232434 I think reflective practice is thinking and reflecting personal thinking and evaluating through your own experiences. This is an opportunity to learn from any mistakes, setting up activities, communicating with children, playing with children, etc. Reflective practice helps us grow with our knowledge, and lets us learn to be the best care's and educators we can for each children's future.]]> 2019-05-15 08:07:30 UTC https://padlet.com/helen_roberts/1l03c0e5155r/wish/360232434
