mrsbat Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Does anyone know where I can find any please? I've googled until my eyes hurt but it doesn't actually bring up any norms tables with reference to where they originated......if that makes sense??? I've got to compare 3 observations to developmental norms, I've used the eyfs stages because that Is what we use at work (Pre-school) but my tutpr has said not just to use eyfs also I've done a ticklist obs on a child who's parent was worried she was only playing with one child, how can I compare that to social and emotional norms. any help would be very gratefully received Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyMaz Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 any help would be very gratefully received I would buy (or borrow from the library) a good book. I've used Mary Sheridan's birth to five years here on Amazon. Also Observing Children by Sharman, Cross and Sheridan, here, and also A Practical Guide to Observing Children by Hobart and Frankel, here. As well as being useful guides to observation, both of these also include developmental norms. All three have the 'look inside' feature on Amazon, which provide limited previews so you might be able to look up the information without buying it (and use Google books too!). However, they are very useful when you need to check a child's progress against the norms for whatever reason. Maz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
