I would imagine you could look at the planning cycle, continuous provision, pedagogy, theoretical & educational approaches.

The amazon.co.uk preview of page of 377 is available in this handbook & explains a little more, search indoor and outdoor provision
Literally the second someone replies to this my assessor decides to return my email!! Bah. So her words are:

"Indoor and outdoor ones will be short, it really is looking at how areas are being used or not and why and how to improve if need it"

Sounds really simple but I've also been told previously that they're observations and/or that I need to be observing one particular area indoors and outside but simultaneously not picking an individual area but assessing as a whole. It needs to be either or it can't be both but I'll work on her most recent version of explanation I guess.

Kind of awkward because I've left nursery now (only a month left on my course) but as I remember every inch of the garden and play room I guess it doesn't matter too much.
