1. Demonstrate knowledge and awareness of the skills needed for different pedagogical approaches - Am I right to say I'd talk about the six outcomes and what theory links in with it?

2. Demonstrate the ability to apply multiple perspectives to early childhood curricula - With this I talk about the intionationelle side of things like i.e. What the EYFS is like in other countries?

3. Recognise and evaluate the impact of legislation and policy on practice - Also with this would I talk how the EYFS has hanged from when it was first ECM and say about how there more parental involvement now?

4. Discuss and evaluate the importance of working collaboratively with parents - And this obviously weigh up the importance of working collaboratively with parents i.e good communication etc?

Could you please tell me if am going the right way about this?

Thanks again and sorry to bore you all to death lol x

i would break it down into 4 parts one section each and approach them individually then you wont feel so overwhelmed. as heidi says do no use wikipedia focus on the eyfs and DO NOT quote nursery world it is way below level 4 you should be using EYE magazine not NW.

look at your reading list and get the essential readings. then maybe one other text per subject. AND use your tutor she is getting paid to support you! who are you doing it with??
