Environments That Would Be Beneficial For Observations

Hi all,

Having a bit of trouble here, I'm working on the unit 'Use information about children to inform practice' and stuck on this question 'List some environments that would be beneficial for observations'
I haven't really got an answer so far for this, rather I am trying to understand the meaning of the question, whether they mean environment as in surrounding area or more like situations e.g. observing children as a group, observing 1 child in a group and how that child interacts, observing 1 child playing independently etc.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
Kind regards,
Melanie.

Hi Melanie,

Like you have suggested I think "environments" they are referring to is observing a child outdoors, observing a child indoors, observing a child within the routine, observing a child in a group, observing a child independently, observing a child with an educator. I think these are all different "environments"...

Hope this helps,
