Hi all,

Again I really need your advice with M7

stuck on a question.

WHAT IS THE VALUE OF PROVIDING BOTH INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP ACTIVITIES TO PROMOTE CHILDRENS LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT?

cant find the right words to answer this

[Guest]

Which element are you doing?

M7.1 M7.2 M7.3 or M7.4?

 

I may be able to help if I know

[Guest]

Don't really know the context of NVQ but think about why you would only have 1 or 2 children at a certain activity compared to say a group of 6/8 children.

 

Have you formulated any activity plans yet? If so consider the grouping for a variety of activities and the reasoning behind this. for example is it adult led or child initiated? How many children could an adult "teach" how to cut vegetables? A group of 8 or a smaller group, why?

 

Hope this helps and doesn't confuse you even more.

Peggy is right Anne (of course!). You need to think about the sorts of activities you might be offering, the size of the group/individual activites and why you have different sizes groups. As Peggy has suggested, you wouldn't have a large group of children for a cutting activity for obvious reasons! On the other hand it would be hopeless having one child for a game of football!!

[some children work better, when working on their own compared to working with a group, some observations and activities are more efficent when done individually or in a group.

hope that helps
