Assignment - A written report on children's play, development, and learning
The purpose of this assignment is to help you understand the role of play in supporting and promoting children's holistic development and learning. It requires you a) to document and analyse play observed in five selected vignettes of children's play in different settings and contexts b) suggest ideas to extend the children's development and learning through play and to c) write a 2000-word report on how play supports and promotes children's holistic development and learning.
STEP 1: Observe, analyse, and suggest ideas to extend children's play, development, and learning using the Template provided.
A. Observe and document a selected child/children's play in the five vignettes given below. In vignettes where more than one child is playing, you may like to choose to focus on a single child in your observation and give him or her a pseudonym. It is very important that you should make it clear if your observations are focussed on a single child or a group of children in your analysis as well as report. Make sure you capture details when writing the observations and avoid writing them like summaries of activities.
B. Analyse the type/s of play that the selected child or children are engaged in these five vignettes referring to the instructions in the template provided.
Support your analysis of each observation with related theory or theories, research literature and curriculum documents, for example, The Early Years Learning Framework (DEEWR, 2009) or My Time, Our Place (2011). It is not enough to support your interpretations just with the EYLF or MTOP outcomes. Avoid making broad generalisations, biased personal opinions and judgmental comments about the child's, development, play or learning in your analysis and adhere to professional and ethical standards.
C. Suggest ideas or recommendations to extend the selected child's or a group of children's development and learning observed in the five vignettes through play activities. Your recommendations could relate to either prior-to school or school setting and should be relevant to the contexts of children's play observed in the vignettes.
STEP 2: Write a 2000-word report
Write a report on how play supported and promoted the selected child's or children's holistic development and learning. Submit this report for marking through Turnitin.
WRITTEN REPORT
What content to include in each section?
Section 1: General introduction to play, followed by details on the selected child's or children's play and to the report with specific objectives, i.e. what this report is going to cover and the structure for this report.
Section 2: In this section provide details on the types/s of documentation used, contexts, nature, and types of play and analysis of how play supported and promoted the selected child's or children's development and learning across all five vignettes, referring to examples in a specific observation /template in the appendix. Support this discussion with relevant theories/ EYLF or MTOP outcomes and literature.
Do not include templates of observations in this section of the report. Five observation templates go into the Appendix, attached to the written report. The information from all five templates should be used to write this section of the report.
Section 3: Provide five recommendations or ideas to extend the selected child's or a group of children's play/learning/development. The recommendations provided should be specific to the type of play and analysis of all five vignettes. They need to be practical and appropriate to the ages/stages of children's development in the vignettes. Write conclusions to the report.
