CHCPR509A - Observation Methods For Play, Social, Language & Thinking Styles
Posted: Wed Nov 23, 2011 8:15 am
Good Morning
The scenario - You are a child care worker in an Out of School Hours Care (OSHC). You are working one-on-one with Thomas, six year old boy with an intellectual disability. Responses should demonstrate inclusive practices and how to interpret and respond to out of character behaviour. Provide examples of observations (including one out of character observation) that might be used to assess Thomas's: Play preferences, social interations, communication and language and thinking styles.
Could you please let me know if I am on the right track with the observations methods I have chosen.
Play preferences - Checklist/Time Sample
Social Interations - Sociogram
Communication and Language - Sociogram
Thinking Styles - ?????????
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
