this tread is old but if u need help this is what i wrote:
Planning for children development starts in order to find out the child’s previous knowledge, their interests and needs. There are many forms of observation which can be carried out to allow us to collate the evidence we need to plan appropriately for the individual child. Each method of observation have advantages and disadvantages of recording the child’s development, so it is important to use a variety of methods of observation of each child to gain holistic knowledge and understanding of the child’s development. You would assess your findings from the observation and this would allow you to develop a progression plan for the individual child.
