The environment in the preschool I work in is lacking equipment, but something more is effecting me in my professional practises. By writing, I come to realize that it is my own child perspective that affects me. Setting up the environment, I am using my teaching experiences from England and trying to adapt my professional practise to the preschool in Sweden and the Swedish curriculum. With new found knowledge from teacher training in Sweden, I use the idyllic notion of a perfect environment I have to reassess my teaching practices. I have used an earlier study on Swedish and English preschool environments and I have discussed the influence that the Reggio Emilia approach has had at my place of work in Sweden.
