You will be provided with observation notes along with other information required for the initial set up of the anecdotal record. Your task is to remove any subjective statements in the observation and use the information provided to organize your anecdotal record as demonstrated in class. You will then identify two inferences based on the observation. The purpose of your anecdotal record is to reect the \"focus" listed at the top of your assigned observation. Lastly. choose one of your inferences and write a developmental goal and strategy to support the child to meet the goal. This assignment is worth 15% of your final grade in the course. Due dates are as follows: Monday October 1tiLr hard copy due at start of class: must be posted to SafeAssign before class. Preparation 1. Complete the TCF'S Course and submit certification on Blackboard. 2. Review assignment description in detail along with grading rubric. 3. Complete Week 3 asynchronous module; Introduction to Observation 4. Attend and participate in class activities weeks 4 and 5 these will be opportunities to practice the skills being graded on the assignment. Assignment lb'lfrite Up [once you receive your assigned observation notes Week 4) STEP ONE: Review the observation and remove all subjective statements and language from it. STEP TWO: Using the observation that you have now corrected, make two inferences based on developmental theories and sequences of development. Provide an in-text citation to support each inference. The inferences MUST focus on the purpose of your obwrvation as discussed in class. This section should be written in full sentences. Ensure that you are following APR 7' citation style when referencing sources. STEP THREE: Create a developmental goal for ONE of the observed skills [your inferences). This goal is to be written in full paragraph formal. Outline your rationale or reason for your goal. This should be the detailed evidence to support your goal; why is your goal appropriate for this child given your observation, your understanding of the sequence of development for this skill area and principles of development? Ensure you are following APR 7 citation style when referencing sources. STEP FOUR: Along with your discussion on theories and sequences and principles of development, you must also describe how you would support the child to meet the goal that you have identified. Consider interactions, materials and environmental opportunities. Submit for Grading through SafeAssign 1. Your typed assignment organized with headings for each component of the anecdotal record. This includes pre- observation information. 2. Reference List using APA style. Anecdotal Observation Checklist Pre-observation Intorrnation Child's name: Observe: AgefDCB: Date: Time of Observation: Setting: Purpose state the domainr the root skill, and the indictor that you are investigating Context - Who is there? How many children? How many ECEs? Where is the observation taking place? What time of day is this? What programming is happening? What materials are present and available to the children? Describe the mood, energy level of the situation Specify what the child you are observing is doing at the onset of the observation Observation: - Anecdotal format - Full sentences - Sequential - Use The direct speech of the individual{s] in the observation - Past tense - Detail is driven by your purpose - Objective {avoid making assumptions] Inference - Consider the development of the children {ELECT, Brigance1 human development textbook} - Interests (again, ELECT or other resources} - State the skill the child appears to be demonstrating, back this up with the development that you have researched {continuum} and quote your observation Developmental Goal - What is the goal for the child's development? o Consider the skill that you said was emerging or was present as part of your inference o lGoal should build upon that skill {broaden it, deepen it, move to the next skill in sequence] - How did you identifyr the goal? - Use your inferences to validate your goal and examples from the observation that support your goal. - How will you support this child to meet the goal that you have identied? {Consider play based strategies that support development}
