You will complete a 30-minute observation of a child or adolescent from 0-12 years for your portfolio (called a “running record†). Please use the following guidelines:
1. First, briefly describe how the child looks physically (age, size, etc.).
2. Watch and write everything the child does for 10 minutes.
Use direct quotes whenever possible if the child vocalizes or speaks.
Record as much detail as possible. Leave out any judgment
or inferences from this section. Just record what you see and
hear as objectively using as much description as possible.
3. Watch for 10 minutes without writing. Record the gap in writing
in your notes (for example, watched from 9:10-9:20 a.m.)
4. Repeat step 1, watching and writing everything the child does for 10
minutes.
When writing up your observation to turn in, follow this format:
1. Divide your paper in two columns. Label the left side “Observationâ€
and the right side “Inferences†. Re-write (or type) the child’s speech
and actions under the column, Observation.
2. Write your interpretation of the child’s actions and speech in the
column marked Inferences. Use your text, class notes, and the
Developmentally Appropriate Practices Handbook to help you
interpret which developmental levels the child has achieved.
3. Write a thorough paragraph summarizing the main points of your
observation. Summarize development in each of the domains for
the child: physical, cognitive, and social-emotional. If you are not able
to observe a particular domain, please state this in the summary. State
whether or not you think the child is developing as would be expected for
his or her age.
