[0:00]High quality interactions in the Early Years. The ShREC approach.
[0:25]Share attention. Be at the child's level. Pay attention to what they are focused on.
[1:08]Oh, a sandwich. Oh, I love sandwiches. That smells good.
[1:19]It's got some orange peel inside to make it yummy and sweet. I can smell the peel of the orange. It smells delicious. Yeah, but I like. I like orange banana. Yeah, we can see the peel in in the dough. You're rolling it with your hands to make a ball. Yeah, that's right. Yours is quite a small ball. You can make it bigger, can't you? You could add some more dough and make it bigger. Conversation. Have extended back and forth interactions. Give children time to listen, process and reply. You can have a go with your mortar. Liam's going to crush it.
[2:16]Your cinnamon stick has broken into pieces. We see how Rahima pays close attention to what Liam is interested in. It's already broken. This one is already broken. Do you want to try another one, Liam? You're twisting the lid. And it's open. What's this? What's this? Good question, Liam. Should we sniff? He is fascinated by the pestle and mortar, and what happens when he uses it to break up the cinnamon stick? Called cloves. It's not going to break either. She responds to Liam's excitement and comments on what has happened. She follows his lead, tuned into his interest in exploring what happens with the pestle and mortar. I'm going to have a go, Liam. Can you see how I'm going to crush it using the pestle? Crush!
[3:35]Yes, that's a good idea. Liam would like to try the orange peel with his chapati. Not for Liam. Oh, I might crush it first, Liam. We want white peel. Oh, you can really smell the orange coming out of it now that I've pressed it.
[4:03]So sweet. Liam likes the orange peel smell. You like it.
[4:23]By repeating what he says and adding more words, she expands his language. Rahima establishes a back and forth conversation with Liam. She makes sure that she gives him time to listen, process and reply, and uses open questions carefully to extend and sustain the interaction.
[4:49]It's ripped. Look what you've got at the bottom of your. Can you see all the orange oil has come out? It smells delicious.
