Smiles Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 I have been asked by PDO to record use of space and grouping of children at our sessional setting any ideas? smiles Quote
Guest Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Hi there A plan of your building, label all of the areas. Describe how the space is used where the children are grouped. Could maybe do an observation describing how children use the space using the plan. Thats all I could think of! Quote
Sue R Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Hi, Probably just a regional variation - PDO - is ?? Quote

Guest Wolfie Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Yes, Community Playthings do some good articles to set you thinking, don't they? Quote
Smiles Posted February 28, 2008 Author Posted February 28, 2008 Yes it has really made me thing about use of space. I ahve printed off there infrmation and whilst we cant afford or have the 'space' for alot of their equipemnt it has made me realise there is alot motre to the use of space. I am always trying to get staff to get use to the idea of defined areas and this will help me getmy point across. smiles Quote
