Guest Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 I try to do an assessment on the children after 6 weeks of starting nursery not a formal one just to see what stage they are at. I am trying to change it and wonderd if anyone who does this also has one I could have a look at please. I would be grateful thank you killowengirl
Guest Wolfie Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 We are just starting to use the Development Matters statements for tracking - not looking for evidence of every single one but referring to them after several observations of the child in different situations, at different times of the day, inside and outside, etc.etc to give us some indication of age and stage across the six areas.
Guest Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 thank you very much, d you record it to put in the files
Guest Wolfie Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 (edited) Yes we do, we've used the sheets that Helen put in the Resource Library and adapted them slightly to give us room to cross reference to our observations. We use a pink highlighter for "on entry", then orange for all the observations whilst they are with us and green for transition to next setting. Edited February 20, 2009 by Wolfie
