Also in this observation I learned that the to a greater extent free-play that nestlingren baffle the much they set about their skills I ilkwise learned that at such a young age of two that a child with some help from another child fucking put together a jigsaw without adults help. synopsis TC shows in this observation that she tolerate subprogram her pincer grasp real well as she is making jigsaws and is using a pencil.TC in addition shows that she can use her gramer grasp when she feeds herself with the spoon. Recommendations for T. C I would pr severally that the creche could ask T. C to build something with the blocks or they could ask T. C to try drawing something on her own to challenge her so she can develop more. Reference Flood, E. (2010). s holdr maturement for students in Ireland.

I disembodied spirit that I consent achieved this organize very well and that generally TC is shock her norms of development with her physical development in terms of her gross get. The gross motor skills are the use of the large muscles in your body.In the yard TC shows that she can run in the yard towards caterpillar toy avoiding the slide. TC as well as shows that she can climb up on furniture and get game down holding onto rails with both hands. TC also shows shes clashing the norms according to flood when she pushes a child in the toy car around the yard. TC also shows that she can kick a large ball when she picks up the soft ball from the ground and throws it to her friends whilst playing hot ball. When returning inside TC went up the step one foot at a time holding the wall for support according to flood 2010 a child at the age of two should be able to track down these tasks without difficulty to be clashing the norms of development.According to flood at the age of two a child should be able to ride tricycles pushing them along with their feet and to pull toys along with wheels, but these activities were not in my observation so I couldnt observe that TC could carry out these tasks. In summary I feel uniform TC is meeting her norms of development in her gross motor skills as she carried out the tasks I set out for her to her full potential. Personal learning I learned whilst doing this observation that when you set out tasks for the children that they fuck them more as they can learn through practice doing them. I also learned that at such a young age that children suffer good physical strength eg. TC could push the younger child around in the toy car I also learned that children at this age are aware of the dangers that can hurt them like when TC avoided the slide when going to the caterpillar Recommendations for T. C I would recommend that the creche get more Toys in the creche so TC can develop her skills on other things. I would also recommend that the creche encourages TC more to play with other children.

Date 16/11/12 Time 111110 T.C is sitting on the couch at the corner with two baby innate(p) dolls on her knees TC is pretending that the baby born dolls are talking to each other saying do you want to play TC is laughing away to herself and is pretending that th e babies are laughing with her. TC keeps playing with the dolls, laughing pretending that the dolls are her own children. TC has adept named the babies Megan and Rachel (which are the children on front of her) TC is now sitting on the ground with the one of the babies up at her shoulder saying Its Ok. Adults goes everyplace to TC and asks her what happened the babies TC replies to the Adult Megan hit her Adult says back to TC the piteous baby and turns to the other baby TC has and says Thats Not Nice. TC laughs at adult saying this and says Rachel is ok now and laughs.TC thus puts down the Babies and walks over to the picture board and says thats me and points to the picture of her on the wall. TC then points to another picture and says to adult there is Luke and Lauren. Adult replies Yes it is. TC then goes over to Luke and Lauren and says and points at wall and says thats you Luke and that is you Lauren. The Door bell then rings and TC looks at door and shouts Mammy TC looks at adults and Says That mom Adults Replies no thats Lukes mammy. TC then says silly Me and TC then shouts over to Luke Luke Mammy here. TC Then Goes back over to the Corner and picks up baby born again. End Of observation. EvaluationThe aim of this observation was to observe TC a two year old girl while she was in the creche setting to get a better understanding of her intellectual development. I feel that I have achieved this aim very well and that generally TC is meeting hers norms of development in terms of her intellectual development. In this observation TC shows empathy for the baby born when Rachel is crying. TC shows nitty-gritty here when she lifts her up and puts her head on her holder. According to Flood(2010) at this age this is what TC should be doing. TC also shows that she is meeting her norms of intellectual development when she goes over to the pictures on the wall and recognizes herself, Lauren and Luke in the photos. According to Flood (2010) these are the norm s she should be reaching.According to Piaget A child at the age of 2 is at the per-operational stage and assumes that everyone and everything is like them. Therefore they think everything feels pain and has emotions like them. Tc shows this when she thinks that rachel is crying and is hurt. Summary This observation shows that Tc is meeting all her norms for her age. Recommendations for TC I would recommend that the creche encourages TC to play with other children and to get her interacting with other children so that she is not playing on her own. I would also recommend that the Adults interacts more with TC if they can so that other children will come over and play with her. Personal learning I learned that a child at this age can sense emotions and can comfort people who are upset. I also learned that children of this age can are in a little world of their own and just keep themselves amused by talking to themselves I also learned that children can remember and recognize diffe rent people that they index find oneself in a picture.

I feel that I have achieved this aim very well and that TC is meeting her norms of development with her social development. In this Observation we see that TC is meeting her norms when she responds to the adult when she is asked what she wants to sing, she also shows that she is meeting her norms when she joins in when an adult sings, so according to flood (2010) as she is doing this she is meeting her norms of development. She is also meeting her norms when she says its break time as according to flood (2010) children at the age of two will ask for food.In this observation these are the only parts of the norms of development in social skills that we could observe, so we dont know if she has true any of the other norms as we can not assume she can do these things we have to see a if she is interacting with the group better. Summary This observation shows that Tc is meeting most of her norms for her age. But I coul dnt prove she is meeting them all. Observation Emotional Development Event sample.

Evaluation The aim of this observation was to observe TC, a 2 year old girl while she was in the creche setting to get a better understanding of her emotional development. I feel that I have achieved this aim very well and that generally TC is meeting her norms of development in terms of her emotional development.This observation shows that TC is meeting her norms of development as she shows extreme behavioral changes as she takes toys of other children but gets upset when children take things off her. According to flood (2010) this is the way a child at the age of two will carry on. This observation also shows that according to flood (2010) a child at the age of two have little concept of sharing this is why TC took the toy off the other child. Flood(2010) also says that children at the age of two doesnt understand teasing this is why TC gets upset and mad when child 1 is tipping her whilst TC is having her dinner. According to bruner at child at 2 Should be able to able to eat with a spoon and fork TC shows she can do this. Personal Learning I learned when doing this observation that you have to let children misbehavior for them to learn I also learned that children shouldnt be put near another child that may upset or cause conflict with them. I also learned that you can sort out conflict that happens between children easily and as soon as it occurs. Recommendations for TC I would recommend that the adults keep TC away from C1 if they keep getting into situations were they are annoying eachother. References Flood, E. (2010).

I feel that TC has progressed in term of her language skills as she now talking clearer and is using more vocabulary As According to Flood (2010 a child at the age of 2 uses 200 or more words. Flood(2010) also claims that a child at the age of 2 constantly pointing out an asking the names of people and objects.TC shows that she is meeting this norm when she asks the adult what the glue is. This also shows that TC has progressed since she was stick up observed as in the last observation she wasnt asking much questions at all. According to Piaget the vocabulary of a child is expanded and developed during this as they change from babie s to toddlers Tc shows that she has developed since the last observation as she is having a better conversition in this observation then she was in the last one. According to bowler a child at 2 should let people know what they want using words. TC shows this when she asks adult can she make a butterfly. Personal learning From doing this observation I learned that children can progress and are always progressing as TC progressed since the last time I observed her. Recommendation for TC I would recommend that the creche get TC to do more activities like this as in this activity TC was doing lots of interaction with the other children. References Flood, E.

I feel that I have achieved this aim very well as TC is now meeting all her norms of development with her physical development in terms of her gross motor. The gross motor skills are the use of the large muscles in your body. In the yard TC shows that she can run in the yard towards caterpillar toy avoiding the slide. TC also shows that she can climb up on furniture and get back down holding onto rails with both hands. TC also shows shes meeting the norms according to flood when she pushes a child in the toy car around the yard.TC also shows that she can kick a large ball when she picks up the soft ball from the ground and throws it to her friends whilst playing hot ball.

Personal learning I learned whilst doing this observation that when you set out tasks for the children that they enjoy them more as they can learn through practice doing them. I also learned that at such a young age those children have good physical strength eg. TC could push the younger child around in the toy car I also learned that children at this age are aware of the dangers that can hurt them like when TC avoided the slide when going to the caterpillar Recommendations for T. CI Recommend that the creche do more outdoor activities with them so that TC can keep developing her norms. References Flood, E. (2010). Child Development for students in Ireland . Dublin Gill&macmillian Social development flow chart- narrative Date25/2/13 Time 900-1200 TC entered the creche and went straight over to the table to get heat and juice. TC sat down beside another child and said hi she then turned around to the adult and said can I have some toast The adult replyed yes and handed Tc some Toast. After her toast TC went over to the library counter and sat alongside another child and read a book. TC and the other child were reading the book aloud and swapping book after they had each book read.After the library counter TC went over to the home corner with two other children and pretending to cook them lunch at the kitchen asking what would you like for lunch TC then told the children that this is what her mammy uses to make her dinner. After this TC went over onto the mat and sang nursery rhymes with all the other children and held hands when going around in the circle. TC then went back over to the table where she was going to have her break and asked the adult could she sit beside Lauren and luke. The adult said she could so she said beside them. TC then asked could she be the assistant to give the children out there lunches and the adult let her. TC then went around giving all the children their lunches and talking to them.Afte r Break TC went and got her coat on as she was going outside to do and outdoor activity TC stood in the line beside Lauren holding her hand singing if your happy and you know it song. TC then went outside with the other children and stood against the wall watching the adult demonstrating the activity. TC then got in a line behind the other children and waited her turn to do activity. After Activity was done TC went back inside as all the children were and went over and took a sit beside another child as they were making mother days cards TC asked all the children what colours they were using after the activity as done it was TC home time so she got up of her chair and said bye to everyone and went to the door to go home. (see flow chart) EvaluationIn this observation we see that TC has progressed since the last time that she observed as she in now interacting with the children more. We see this when TC is sitting next to Lauren and luke and she is taking to them in the last social observation TC was mainly just joining in on what the group was doing she wasnt making her own conversation with the children. According to the Piaget a child at the age of 2 should Initiate play activities TC shows she can do this when she join in indoor and outdoor activities. Also according to Piaget a child at the age of two award personal preferences about toys, food, and activities TC show she does this when she pretends to make food for the other children.According to bowler a child at 2 should 2- 3 year olds love simple picture books with familiar things and simple stories. Read aloud to them and talk about the pictures TC shows that she can do this when she reads the book at library corner. Summary In this observation it shows that Tc has developed since the last time i observed her. Recommends I would recommend that the creche workers keep getting TC obscure in activity to make her interact even more with the other children.
