I should focus on the process (rather than the goal) of play. Ask exploratory questions that help extend the child’s play. According to Basford. J.(2008),”It is essential to make sure that the quality of the children’s experience is not gained and maintained at the expense of your sanity!”(p.96). It is an (skilful) adult’s responsibility to supervise the children at all time as you cannot leave them alone at any circumstance. Your sight should be individually set on what they are doing. I admit that it is not easy to adapt such measures during the play time but as a teacher I should be aware of any possible unnecessary harm. It would be easier to stand in a position where you can observe children during play.
