Positive and Respectful Interactions During Observations
Posted: Wed Oct 07, 2015 4:50 pm
Q12-when observing children, how can an educator ensure the interaction is positive and respectful
• Acknowledge all children as unique individuals, each with
distinctive strengths, abilities and needs, personalities and
temperaments;
• Acknowledge the child in the context of their families and
demonstrate respect for their backgrounds, cultures, traditions
and life circumstances;
• Reflect on their image of the child and how this impacts on
what they do with and for children on a daily basis;
• Support children’s secure attachment through consistent,
responsive and nurturing relationships;
• Relate to all children in a warm and friendly manner in a way
that demonstrates genuine interest in them;
• Provide opportunities and support for children to express their
thoughts, ideas and feelings;
• Spend time interacting and engaging with children in sustained
conversation in a meaningful and respectful way;
• Acknowledge and respond sensitively to children’s cues and
signals in a way that demonstrates an understanding of their
communication styles and preferences; and
• Support children in times of change and bridge the gap between
the familiar and the unfamiliar.
Respect for children can also be seen in the way educators view children and how they include them in
decision-making processes. Educators make many hundreds of decisions throughout the day. It is important
to ensure decisions are made with the child’s best interests in mind.
