Activity 1.3 | Fostering Collaborative and Reflective Practices

Listen to Episode Two: Melissa Harris on Community (23:26) from the ECE Rural podcast hosted by Danielle Schmuecker and then reflect. 

Reflection

How will you build trust and collaboration with children, families, and staff? 

Write your thoughts in your journal, and provide an example of a communication strategy you would use to navigate a challenging situation, such as resolving a conflict between staff members or addressing a family concern. 

Consider sharing this with others in your centre.
