Help with 303 K3D217 Development chart 0 - 16 years CCLD NVQ Level 3

[dkredbaron]

You are not going to learn anything by copying someone elses work you will get far more out of your course if you read and research then make your own chart.

HELP!!!
I have been given 5days to do K3D217 as I'm soon taking 6wks off work and assessor wants me to complete AMAP before I do. What is best way you've found to lay out the chart and do you have what the child needs and what we may observe in each child range? Many thanks in advance!!!

Hi Ugly Duckling. Have you got a good textbook for your course - this should have everything in that you need really. If it hasn't, maybe you should pop to Amazon or the library. A good textbook is a must really for NVQ work.
Sorry this is a bit unhelpful.

As to the layout, it sounds like you have the idea spot on!

I found ivillage quite helpful as well. Log onto ivillage then go onto Parenting then (search) for Development charts.

Quote from Kayt:

- choose the one titled 'Developmental Milestone Summary' it will bring up an Adobe document.

http://www.child-development-guide.c...milestone.html - the only thing this one doesnt have is sensory.
