Reflection wheel

Who are the questions for?

For yourself About your life, your feelings and your plansFor your work as a care worker About your work and your views

Choose a theme

Press the button. The wheel chooses a question for you, and it appears on this card.

Doing it together? Take turns spinning and both answer the same question, your care worker too. You can skip a question.

All questions for ‘Who am I’

What matters to youWhat matters to you in your life?
What you still want to doWhat would you still like to experience or do?
What you are good atWhat are you good at? What do other people say about that?
What you find hardWhat do you find hard? How do you deal with it?
Your familyWho in your family are you close to?
Your friendsWhat do you like about a good friend?
What you like doingWhat do you like doing when you have time for yourself?
What you have been throughWhich event in your life taught you a lot?
Your dreamsWhat is a dream you have had for a long time?
Your feelingsHow do you notice that you are happy, angry or sad?
Looking after yourselfWhat do you do to look after yourself well?
Your limitsHow do you show that something is getting too much for you?

How it works

Choose who the questions are for: For yourself (about your life, your feelings and your plans) or For your work as a care worker (about your work and your views).
Choose a theme, for example ‘Work and education’ or ‘Getting on with others’.
Press Spin the wheel. Where the wheel stops, you get a card with a question.
Think about the question, write down your answer or talk about it with someone.
Want to keep going? Choose another question from the same theme, or spin again.

What kind of questions they are

Under For yourself there are ten themes, such as ‘Who am I’, ‘When things go wrong’ and ‘Running your own life’. Each theme has twelve questions, one for each section of the wheel. They are open questions that you can answer with an example. For example: ‘What do you like doing when you have time for yourself?’ or ‘Who listens to you well? How can you tell?’

Under For your work as a care worker there is one theme, ‘You and your work’, also with twelve questions. For example: ‘Think of a difficult situation at work. What did you do then, and what would you do differently now?’

The wheel chooses the question for you. That is handy if you do want to think or talk, but do not know where to start. With Another question from this theme you get a question you have not had yet.

Spinning together

For example, take turns spinning with your care worker, and both answer the same question.

Are you a care worker? Then at the start choose For your work as a care worker. You get questions about your work and your views, which you can use with a colleague: take turns spinning and give an example from your own practice for each question.

Good to know

Under ‘Your cards’ you see the questions you had before. They are not stored anywhere: if you reload the page, they are gone.
Want to choose a question yourself? At the bottom of the tool, open ‘All questions for …’. There you see all the questions in the theme in a list, with the same number as on the wheel.
Is ‘reduce motion’ turned on on your device? Then the wheel does not spin round, but you see straight away where it stops.
