attention.

Table 3: Over the course of this placement, add to this list of practical strategies for building
positive relationships with children, colleagues and families. Discuss which are most
effective.

-Communicate with families and colleagues.

-Asking the students about what they like and what they dont like

-Share with the students about what I like and what they like.

Questions to reflect upon:

1. Why do you think transitions are important? It's important when the teacher wants her
students to end one activity and move to another, also it's important to manage the students.
2. How do they help children? It helps children to know what they should do.
3. How do they help the teacher? It helps the teacher to manage the classroom and follow the
lesson plan that she put.
