mu 2.2 2.3 contribute to the evaluation of the activities meeting the child or young persons identified development need
 

Hi all can you please just put me on the correct path for this question, i think it means inputting how i can help childrens development, e.g. planning activities around childrens likes and make activitys challenging so that the children dont get bored.

Can you please advice :dizzy:

Hi, yes you're on the right tracks its about how you check each activity benefits the child and their learning and development. Where children have already had their individual needs identified, activities can be planned to meet those needs. The first time an activity is offered to a child or that the child initiates for themselves will highlight how good it is for them and if it is appropriate in supporting their needs and learning..

Activities and children's needs will be unique to your setting or placement.

Do you atttend meetings that suggest new activities.
Do you suggest activities directly to a colleague, lead, manager
Do you suggest changing an activity as you've observed how the child seemed to like or dislike it, completed it very quickly or struggled to complete it.
What type of observations do you conduct in the setting - notes, snapshot, fill in a feedback section on an activity sheet?

Hth, welcome to silkysteps :) xx

To update this thread for new visitors, the CYPW level 2 handbook covers the MU 2.2 unit from page 105 onwards.

Page 119 states

Contributing to the evaluation of activities

It is important that we think about how the activities or play opportunities have helped a child or young person and whether they were suitable. In some cases, we may realise that while the activity was useful, the child did not enjoy it. We may also realise that an activity or play opportunity could be repeated or adapted as a child seemed very interested and it worked well.

Consider how you reflect on activities and the suggestions that you can make about the way they might happen again in the future.

This activity planner has space for evaluation, maybe your setting has a similar form that helps you contribute?
