I CAN'T UNDERSTAND THIS QUESTION,PLEASE ANYBODY HELP ME TO ANSWER THIS QUESTION.

I can't understand this question too... I got it back 3 times already. OMG can you help me if you've done it already? Please!! I am running out of time, I need to complete it

I'm really stuck on this question too! Can anyone help?

It's not base on a scenario it's a random question I am confused as well

I am up to this question as well and I'm also confused.

In the Meal Time Routines policy state the strategies in place include:

Educators will determine the placement of children in groups to take advantage of peer role modelling.


Table and chairs will be arranged in small groups of 4 -6 children.


Where possible children will sit in the same place for each meal.

The questions i, ii and iii are asking for your opinion on why the educators determine the seating arrangement (e.g to take advantage of peer role modelling.) why children are arranged in small groups of 4-6 (e.g an opportunity for children to socialise and communicate with each other) why encourage children to sit in the same place (e.g so the children get used to the meal time routine and develop socially acceptable meal time behaviours)


Hope this helps
