I'm mithering about whether my reduced paperwoirk simplified for parents obs will stand muster at my upcoming O inspec.
I have asked before but will ask again as it's worrying me....
ALL I do re obs is the photo of proof in the LJ, and a caption coming out saying something like 'Look I can ride a scooter! I'm going to try a bike over the summer' I show what they did and what the next step will be.
I DONT use a form with columns etc and I dont do a long para like 'Sara is on her scooter bladibla....
I was doing it way more academic but parents hated it and my local network seemed to think it was OK to do this.
I also use an ongoing planning document on my laptop covering each child once or twice a week where I give feedback after they have played with something (inspired by Penny's system) (That is in columns--what we have done/reason for activity/wow moment,next steps,obs.) I find this document to be very informative and each child is listed but its not divided into child's files, its just stored day by day chronologically.
It all feel a bit thin, but it does the job...do you think O will be OK with it???
