Reflective practice is essential to professionalism in Early Childhood Education. As individuals, it is a necessary means to grow, develop, refine, and change what we do
in our work with children and families. Becoming a "reflective practitioner" is a personal and professional journey of developing knowledge, awareness, and skills.
Building on the learning from Quality First's "Introduction to Reflective Practice", this session will provide an opportunity to reconnect with what you already know about
reflective practice, explore the role and value of reflective practice for increasing professionalism and personal growth, and develop reflective skills and activities to use
for yourself and for developing individuals on your team.
