Jo43 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Can someone give examples of what a child might say which refers to this statement please. 40-60+ months Extends vocabulary, especially by grouping and naming, exploring the meaning of new words.

Rufus Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 The other day I worked with a group of children to make an obstacle course. The next day one of the children took the lead and showed his friends how to make an 'octopus' course. He used different positional language and talked about using "equipment" such as mats, benches, hoops etc. new words that he was understanding and using in context. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 I have just looked on my school tracking system which offers examples of DM statements in 'child speak'. This is how it is interpreted: 'I am able to correctly use the many new words and sound I have learnt' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunnyday Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 We were lucky enough to be able to watch two 'pigeon releases' this week - lovely suggestions from the children about what might be in the baskets (!) also able to link these words with group story 'In the Nest' - love these totally unplanned moments! :1b Yes, I love that line from Owl Babies and never manage to say it without arms outstretched!

Jo43 Posted March 28, 2014 Author Share Posted March 28, 2014 First thank you all for your replies. I now understand most of the statement. It's just the grouping part. I am still unsure about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 (edited) How about collective nouns for that? She saw a flock of sheep or a herd of cows? These are all phrases we say to children that they learn and repeat Edited March 28, 2014 by Cait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
