    Default KUW

    Hello, I hope this doesn't sound silly! I am currently typing up obs and reports for parents for this month so far. I am up to KUW and a little stuck. The child I'm working on is 20 months. I have talked about Designing and Making in respect of the gluing and painting we do but I'm a little stuck on the rest of the aspects. Could anyone help break the aspects down a little for me in respect of such a young child?
    Thanks and sorry if I sound a little silly!!!

    Not sure if this help, but this is how I see it

    Exporation and investigate
    do they explore the enviroment e.g open and close door, press buttons

    ICT
    use toys that have remote or need a button to be pressed to set them of or a electrical keyboard. camera

    Time
    associating certain action with a routine e.g always wash hands before eating

    Place
    playing with small world toys e.g farm or trains

    Communities
    name their own cup. e.g xx cup or xx shoes. knowing that they are an indvidual and there are other as well

    I'd also include Nature and the Outdoor World - Simple things for a 20 month old such as looking at insects in the garden, watching birds fly, feel and texture of grass as opposed to concete, feeling the rain or seeing it.

    Not sure if that is what you meant

    If you look at pages 27 - 32 of that book you got the other day you should find lots of ideas!

    Hi, yes, Emma got the 'Play and activities for under 3s' ebook the other day...

    I've talked about each area of learning and development for little ones, not for planning as such cos you don't plan themes etc for under 3s, but for making sure you have an appropriate range of resources and for things to look out for in obs.
