Am I writing too much?

[Care-Worker]

Hello I'm a psychology graduate that enrolled on a level-3 early years diploma yesterday. I'm doing the part-time 18 month course as a volunteer at a special needs nursery.

From what I've seen there seems to be so many different kinds/variations of this level-3 diploma. Basically I've started off my first module which is called 'Support healthy lifestyles for children through the provision of food and nutrition' and it asks me to define healthy eating and why it's important, evaluate local and national initiatives and finally describe food and drink requirements in relation to current frameworks.

I hope this is ringing some bells and mirrors what others are seeing in their syllabuses. Anyway I've done 2 and a half pages and I'm wondering if I've gone overboard? My tutor mentioned that some parts of course are literally only 6 lines and can be completed in 20 minutes...
