My Answers:
Supporting identity and relationship building
* The educators help children build relationships by encouraging them to interact through shared activities, like group play or story time, helping children learn how to interact.
Ways to encourage positive relationships
* Collaborative play: Organizing group activities like block building or shared art projects that encourages cooperation and positive interaction between toddlers.
* Peer-to-peer support: Encouraging older toddlers to assist younger ones in tasks, like for example helping each other with toys, fosters positive relationships through shared responsibility and kindness.
My Teachers Response:
A great start, however can you please add in how you can greet the child when they arrive as this is a great way of welcoming them.
Also add in the experience they had in the video e.g. mirrors etc.
