Tutorial Two: Occupational Engagement, Doing, Being, Becoming and Belonging.

My chosen occupation is the transition to first day at primary school. Pretty self explanatory. For those who don't know me, I have a daughter who has attended four primary school (1 in Christchurch and 3 in the Waikato region). I chose this occupation for two reasons: 1. my placements have not contributed to my OT experience (however much I enjoyed my time), and 2. although personally I attended 2 primary school, I did not have the success that my daughter did at doing, being, becoming, and belonging.

Ethical considerations
I chose images without defining features that people could be identified with.
I also chose websites where consent (or parental consent) had already been acquired.
As I used my daughter as the main subject, I have decided to amp up the security to certain groups.
