The Reflections In Action Posters provide reminders to educators about the process of reflecting. The posters give educators guidance on the reflection and include what to reflect on when to reflect, how to reflect and reflection recommendations. These are great to add to the staff room for Educators. Reflective practice is learning from everyday situations and issues and concerns that arise which form part of our daily routine while working in an early childhood setting.

When all the cows were sleeping
And the sun had gone to bed
Up jumped the scarecrow
And this is what he said

I'm a dingle, dangle scarecrow
With a flippy floppy hat
I can shake my hands like this
And shake my feet like that

When all the hens were roosting
And the moon behind the cloud
Up jumped the scarecrow
And shouted very loud

I'm a dingle, dangle scarecrow
With a flippy floppy hat
I can shake my hands like this
And shake my feet like that

Hints and Tips: 

  • Learn the actions of the song
 

This is a simple and funny action song about sea creatures moving through the water before GULP is eaten by something a little bigger...before a humongous whale comes and BURP! This is great for children learning about different types of sea creatures.

Art-based learning is used in most approaches to early childhood education across the world. It is widely accepted that art not just helps the child to develop creative and fine motor skills but also nurtures cognitive skills like planning and problem-solving. There are two main approaches to using art in learning – art as a product and art as a process.

These weather charts enable Educators to use with children to learn about the weather. Using weather chars support children to make scientific observations and predictions, learning weather vocabulary and more.

See the bunnies sleeping till it’s nearly noon
Shall we wake them with a merry tune?
They're so still, are they ill?
Wake up little bunnies!

Hop little bunnies, hop, hop, hop
Hop, hop, hop - Hop, hop, hop
Hop little bunnies, hop, hop, hop
Hop, hop, hop...

Hints and Tips: 

  • Children should be crouched down on the floor for bunnies sleeping and then following the actions of the song. 
  • Each verse, you can say another animal and the actions of the animal instead of the bunny. 

From July 2024, Early Childhood Education Services will receive 5 days notice for Assessment and Rating.

When writing Summative Assessments it provides you an opportunity to summarise all the documentation you have collected on each child's learning and development and "sum" up to emphasize children's strengths and make learning visible.
