Responsive exchanges with children

Child: “I fell and got hurt.”
Adult: “That must have been hard. I’m here to help you. Do you want a hug or do you need me to help you feel better?”
-
Very good!

Some responsive exchanges I may want to use in everyday interactions with children include having positive conversations with each of them and let them know they are seen and heard, play with them, comfort them, and help them develop coping skills in negative situations. I should respect them, validate them, and use the serve and return method frequently.

Children feel safe and confident when you talk, listen and interact with them in a positive way. This creates a trusting relationship with them. In everyday interactions with children, we might respond to a situation by acknowledging their feelings and offering support. That way they will feel comfortable to talk to us whenever they need to.

Be kind, Be ready when they need

Creando un ambiente de comprensión e interacción positiva con el niño, hablarle y explicarle los que ellos sientan curiosidad de aprender o saber y siempre mirarlo a los ojos, ese contacto de miradas al hablarles suavemente forma un vínculo de comprensión y empatía en la relación, a los niños hay que explicarles lo que sucede y en caso de que tengan una situación de stress o un comportamiento desafiante hay que explicarles las consecuencias de ese comportamiento y siempre de la mejor manera posible para enseñarles y así ellos lo aprecian más! En mi día a día lo hago todo el tiempo y de verdad me funciona al 100%.

So, let’s say a kid shows you a drawing they’re super proud of. Instead of just nodding, you could be like, “Whoa, look at all those cool colours! What’s the story behind your drawing?” It shows you’re interested and gives them a chance to share what they’re excited about. Or when they don’t want to share their toys, instead of scolding or forcing them we can say things like “I understand you want to keep playing with your toy. How about we take turns? You can have it for a little while, and then your friend can have a turn too.”

Being responsive to children is enacted in many different ways. Sometimes, it means actively joining with children in play, while at other times it can be about providing materials and resources to support ideas and extend thinking.

escuchandolos siempre que necesiten ser escuchados, jugar mucho con ellos y dando ejemplo de todas las acciones que hacen.

One of the only things we can do as teacher is to create a safe and trusting relationship and environment with the
children and it s so important. Demonstrating how manage and regulate their
emotions can teach them how to work out issues they are dealing with outside the classroom. Eye contact
and good listening skills helps the child to feel heard and seen.
Allowing children to solve problems on their own with your guidance can
be so helpful when future conflicts arise. -
Being empathetic and taking a child seriously when they talk to you or express their worries and fears even if they seem “silly” so that they know that they can depend on you for support.
-
Responsive exchanges between a child and a trusted adult like talking the child through their emotions and having you there to explain to them why they may feel sad or how different kinds of stressors can make them feel angry or sad. That kind of connection/support can help the children develop the skills they need to handle their emotions and understand why they are feeling that way.
-
It definitely helps to have someone outside of your realm of trauma to encourage and build you up. For me, that was my manager and my old work environment. They stood by me through some tough times and I appreciated that.
With kids, I strive to be a support to them as well and to stand with them. I don’t know their story or their home life, but I can try to be there for them in ways that I can as a teacher.
