Here is some information on anecdotal records:

-Start with a statement; setting, date, time of day, name and age of child
-Describe the child’s behaviour NOT what you think of the behaviours
-Use details of the child’s actions and comments, include other’s responses

Sample

It is ten-thirty on Wednesday morning, October 12, 2010, in the Dino room at Grand Rapids Community College Preschool Laboratory. Liam, a four year old, is standing at a kidney shaped table with 5 other children and three different tubs of blocks.

Liam watches the boy on his left pick up a block from the floor, Liam moves over to the block on the floor and tries to touch it with his foot. Liam returns to the table, he has a blue tubular block in his right hand. He says, “ Whoa, watch this.” and he begins to roll his block on the table and pushes it across the table. He runs around the table and retrieves the block. He takes his right hand with the block in it and pushes the train in the centre of the table to the side. Next Liam returns to his original spot at the table and says, “Oh, watch this, watch this.” He then rolls the tubular block again on the table. Liam looks at the boy next to him and smiles and rolls his block to the centre of the table again. This time the block goes to the centre of the table and Liam reaches out with his right hand and retrieves the block. He repeats this motion with the block this once more.
