5 year old obs and planning??

I am just about to take on a 5 year old and wondered do I have to plan, observe and assess him? What do I need to do? I am going to do a scrapbook with him on some activities we do whlist he is here. Do I need to have it all written down to say what I am planning to do with him each week, observation sheets and link it to the EYFS?? I don't know what I suppose to be doing, if someone could tell me what they do with their before and after school children and what I should be doing. That would be great thanks

Is he in EYFS age range ie reception?

For all my school age children I do a scrap book no planning as such they do further extension to what the littlies do

I don't link anything just have an all about me they do and stick photos of playing and any art work

All my sschool children also have scrap books they can decide what they would like to do I just stick photos in too :thumbsup:

His birthday is in June and is now in year 1- he's the youngest in his class

As far as I'm aware you only need to obs and assess reception aged kids. I would do as the others are doing a scrap book ith photo's in saying what he has done :D

We no longer need to deliver the full EYFS for children in full time 10 sessions a week school.

We need to speak to parents and other settings to find out how you can support the children.

If you want to do scrap books with them great - if they are not interested then fine! :D
