Hi Lorna,
I am stuck in these questions:
1. List 3 standardised screening and assessment tools suitable to assess a range of domains, including children's cognitive, social and emotional development.
My thought so far (that I haven't put on the paper yet) is inviting child psychologist to assess children's cognitive, social and emotional development. There isn't any
other standardised screening and assessment tool better than child psychologist assessment. I know this is not quite in the right track, but I can't think of any other way.
The other possible answer is EYLF learning outcomes.
2. How can you structure or scaffold play to ensure it is a useful observation tool?
My thought so far (again I haven't put it on paper yet), is we work backward. Say we put the learning outcomes from EYLF , set it as a goal to see if the child can meet that
outcome. We start the play from what the child has known then build up or scaffold or structure it to the point that we know up to where the child's development is. In other word, we set up the play, then a follow up structure of the play. Am I right? I think I am wrong here...
Please help Lorna..
Thanks in advance.

Could this be referring to different observation methods such as sociograms, time samples, anecdotal records etc?

Re: Use information about children to inform practice
There is another question about different methods of gathering and recording information about children, in which I believe the answer is anecdotal records, jotting, sociograms, etc. But for the list of 3 standardised screening and assessment tools.. I still have no clue.
Thank you for your help, Lorina.
