green hippo Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Hi all, Probably a really stupid question but do others still keep records of these abilities in a class-list format? I continue to but try not to 'test' the children instead I seek info through play. The information may be recorded as part of an observation but then I keep it on a class-list for quick reference. Just wondering if others still keep some class-list records? Thanks, Green Hippo x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froglet Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Yep! But as you say aim to get the information through play rather than testing. I sometimes find it helps to see that information for a whole class for all sorts of reasons - e.g. I need to put more things out with numbers over 10 on. If I don't collate the information I can miss big gaps or achievements e.g. everyone knows 'red' so I don't need to worry about creating opportunities to learn that.

Rufus Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Yes I still keep this info. I do gather it through play but often games that we have set up to find the information out as I find there are too many gaps if we just observe their play to find the answers and then I end up doing them an injustice because they didn't show me what they know in their play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green hippo Posted September 11, 2013 Author Share Posted September 11, 2013 Thanks all! I too find this information useful to keep together in one place. Just wondered if others did it too! Green Hippo x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
