This film was shot on Bourke Street in Melbourne Central Business District (CBD). I tried to catch a moment every corner of the street because every moment has a backstory.

I could not post any of the photos I took of the children on Bourke Street because I was too respectful of them, but when I watched the children playing and listening to music on Bourke Street, their children looked so happy, and there was a lovely atmosphere. Performers who sing can let the children dance and swing to the beat of their instrument as they appreciate the rhythm of their performance. However, there are also ballet dancers that perform tunes and beats that inspire children to follow along and learn how to picture dancing. I merely see and monitor the action occurring I don't record it. That way children can bring their own memories when visiting Bourke Street where when they play and play activities and movements they have their own impression where the area itself is very large and free for children to explore what activities they want.

As I strolled along, I became aware that Bourke thoroughfare was more than just a thoroughfare it had a distinct flavour. As I examined the object I was presenting, I saw that Bourke Street was a busy thoroughfare that was always bustling with people. This observation encouraged me to learn more about Bourke Street. When I stepped foot on Bourke Street and began to stroll about, I saw how much could be learned from this street. For example, the street was alive with the sound of passing trams and performers singing a variety of musical styles. The sound of birds chirping, which enhances the beauty of the street scene when the birds congregate and fly together at one location. while Bourke Street moved, it opened up spaces for people to interact with one another and with the magnificent, historic buildings that surrounded it. These things made me feel content, at ease, and joyful while I was on Bourke Street. When I was there, I saw the street through a very sharp lens where visitors could learn about new languages and cultures that they had never heard of or experienced before, in addition to the buildings and public art on Bourke Street itself leaving an impression on the language spoken by the various surrounding communities. When children are linked to Bourke Street, they may engage in sensory discovery. From an early age, listening to singing artists can help children learn about sound, melody, and rhythm. The children can also have their own play area where they can explore the city and makeup scenarios when they observe people moving in a throng. Children can see from the side of their eyes where numerous shows are taking place, and they can also experience a culture and a sense of their drama. Through singing and dancing, children can develop their imaginations and feel a sense of belonging, which in turn encourages them to actively contribute to their surroundings. And though the experience made me think about the concept according to Rachel Carson (1956), that children can know that the world surrounding them is " fresh and new and beautiful, full of wonder and excitement." Where children when they see something new if the environment is on Bourke Street itself they will feel a new environment that makes them learn with the surrounding environment more interesting.

Based on what I've seen, the experience gives me a clear picture of what I can expect to learn when I work as an educator in the future. Specifically, I will be able to apply the knowledge that children provide to teach them new things, particularly in the areas of sound, movement, and drama. I will lead some exercises where the children may experiment with sound and different rhythms, leading to group singing and dancing that is also linked to physical activity. Additionally, during group reading sessions, read aloud a narrative in a variety of tones so that the children can comprehend and feel like they are part of the story. For activities related to the movement itself, I will create activities where children can actively play by learning which later there will be songs "Now Remember When I Say, freeze, freeze and When I say dance, dance" where children will follow the rhythm based on "freeze" or "dancing" which makes children learn balance but learn to listen to the rhythm of the music. For the drama activity itself, I will free the children to be creative, where in the classroom, there will be a costume room where children can take and play freely with the existing costumes so that they can learn to imagine the characters they want. By creating activities related to sound, movement, and drama in Future Learning I will make early childhood education learning, especially for educators who provide learning to children to create environments and activities that can increase children's creativity levels and when they do these activities give the impression of their message for them. I also in every learning will always make activities are carried out in small groups so that children can interact with other children so that they can collaborate in learning.

During the activity, I will capture the moment in each activity on the planning sheet which will also display photos of the children there and displayed in the story so that parents can also see the activities that the children are doing. And capture the moment if the activity is in the form of creativity, it will allow children to bring home the work they make.
