A Child's Idea of a Tree House
Claire used the materials on the table to create a shelter for her dinosaurs. First, she put some stones around the dinosaurs, and then covered them with leaves, pine cones, flowers and a log. She said, "I'll put a log on the top so that the house doesn't get blown away." She called it a "tree house."
Using her dinosaurs, Claire also engaged in conversations with the other children. She was protective of her own dinosaurs, and she did not want the dinosaurs to get out of their tree house.
In this experience, Claire demonstrated creativity, imagination, resourcefulness, and language development as she engaged with other children in their dramatic play.
The above anecdotal record is an example of an observation I made on the child to describe how she explored a range of materials and resources to create an object that was a product of her imagination and creativity. As a Preschool Teacher/Educator, I make observations for the following specific reasons:
- Planning the programs or experiences
- Gauging and knowing if the child has achieved his or her goals
- Describing the child's interest, skills, and abilities
- Providing parents with information about their child's learning and experiences

I resteemed this because I think others may enjoy your point of view. Teaching is rough sometimes. Critical observation senses are pretty important. 😀

I appreciate that. Thank you very much. It's really important to observe children what and how they're doing whilst under our care and to inform the parents of these observations.
I love your observation of the young children. So often activities that seem like play are overlooked as exploring and learning.
Thank you. I love making observations of the children. It's a delight to see them flourish throughout the year and see how far they've come and progressed. Some parents think that all their children do at kindy is play but they don't realise that when the children play, they are also developing their skills in all aspects of learning.
