My work roles
2. Helping the children change their books at the library and assisting the children when they ask for help. I liked this task because I enjoyed helping the children when they couldn't find a book to read.
3. Attending and assisting the children in Edu dance class when the children ask me if they can sit down because they aren't feeling well or they don't want to do the actions. I liked this task because i enjoyed watching the children dance.
Two new skills I have developed
I have used initiative when I can see a problem arising. I could see the rain coming and all the outside play equipment was going to get wet. I decided to pick up all the play equipment and take it to the shed.
Communication
Asking the teachers for directions in work tasks e.g of where they would like the items to be. The other area of communication is I became more confident speaking to the children when working in small groups e.g. getting a child that has wandered off to get back in the group.
