Date of visit: 18th July 2005
Time of visit: 12. 30 – 14.00
Age: 4 years and 7 months
Place: Local Park
People present: Aysia and me
Aims:
Today, I’m going to take Aysia to a bigger park, where there will be many children around her, so I want to see how she reacts with other children and see if she communicates with them and talk to them, or does she ignore them and just play alone (solitary play) because she is either shy or wants to do her own things.
I’m also going to see if Aysia has any major skills that she is good at like balancing and skipping and running and climbing up the fake walls in the park (gross motor skills) and then co-ordination of using her arms and legs along the ropes and see can she use her own imagination and do things by herself.
Expectations:
I expect that Aysia will be able to run, jump, hop and skip, walk along a beam, enjoy climbing and sliding down the slide.
I think that she will enjoy running around and having a bit of freedom to play on what she wants to at the park.
Observations:
When I arrived at Aysia’s house she came running up to me because she hadn't seen me for a couple of weeks because they have been on holiday. I told Aysia that I was going to take her to the park but this isn’t the one around the corner it is close but further away from the closest one. Aysia became excited when I told her that I was taking her to the park. The park isn’t far from Aysia’s house so we walked it there and when we was on the way she held my hand and she was skipping and running on the way there. When we got to the park Aysia wanted to go on a swing straight away and she ran straight over to it, she was on the swing for about 10 minutes and she need me to start her off pushing her then she used her legs to make her keep moving I noticed from the last visit to the park she was getting even better at this.
