I talk to a lot of childminders... some find me via the Forum, others through my websites.
Most of them have 3 main worries...
• How to do group planning;
• How to do individual planning;
• How to observe effectively.
This is the last in a series of 3 mini e-books to tackle each of these concerns (see mini 22 and 23 for planning ideas). I suppose I should have written it first since you must observe before you plan but for logistical reasons that didn’t happen!
As it is a mini e-book it is not a detailed look at observations - you will find that in e-book 14.
I hope you will agree, however, that it gives enough information to support even the most nervous note-taker to get watching and listening and planning appropriate next steps for every child.
This mini e-book follows the 'I CAN' method of observing children... working from the positive things they can already do.
All my mini e-books are priced at £1.99 and are available on my website – www.knutsfordchildminding.co.uk (http://www.knutsfordchildminding.co.uk).
Thank you!
