Next, your journal entry should contain the following two parts:
Part One – Observational Notes
- Use observational notes in a K-W-L chart. Document your observations using a method of your choice. Based on your previous experience, you may choose to use any method from this course; such as anecdotal notes, or a running record to document your observation.
- Describe in detail at least three PILES domains represented in the video.
- Use the Who, what, where, when, why, and how questions to document the childs actions and behaviors.
Part Two – Reflection
- Review your state early learning standards and guidelines and post an active link to the website you accessed.
- Reflect on what you learned from your observations and answer the following questions:
- What are the connections between PILES domains you described and your state early learning standards and guidelines?
- Record what standards and guidelines would best represent the childs development in the video.
- How would you use this information to make developmental goals for this child?
