THE RESPONSIVE PROCESS: Watch Ask Adapt
The three steps in the responsive process are watch, ask, and adapt.
Step One:
Begin by watching, not rushing, to do things for the baby. Watch for both verbal and nonverbal cues.
The caregiver begins interacting with an infant or toddler by watching the child. By watching first and not just rushing to do things for the baby, a caregiver can avoid reacting before receiving the full message from the child. He looks with both eyes. He listens with both ears. He gives the child time to get her message across. He watches for both verbal and nonverbal messages”
Step Two: Ask
For example, teachers see that the child enjoys playing with toy cars. Teachers guess one way to engage or relate to the child might be through joint play with cars. One way to ask the question is to introduce cars to the relationship and see what happens. Teachers might also ask: What message am I sending? What am I bringing to this relationship?
Sometimes, teachers and caregivers do not understand a child’s message because their feelings get in the way, causing them to misread or not see and hear what is happening. Part of tuning into another person’s emotional messages is awareness of one’s feelings and emotional states. The more clearly a person understands what is going on inside himself, the more likely he will read and respond appropriately to a child’s signals”
Step Three: Adapt
Adapt your actions according to what you believe to be the child’s desires. Watch how the child responds to your actions. Modify your actions according to the child’s response, and watch, ask, and adapt again. “While caregivers continue to watch and ask, they engage the child. As they engage the child, they will collect valuable information. They may learn that the child does not like to share but does like to show things to others or uses objects to establish closer contact with teachers. Caregivers may find that the child wants to be left alone. They adapt their actions by what they learn: leave, show interest in what the child shows them, or allow the child to get on a lap because she seems to be asking for that.
A caregiver’s action does not have to be in direct relation to the child. The environment may be altered to make it more interesting to the child—for example, teachers put more objects on the floor, or they may try to interest some other children in peer contact “
