Anecdotal Observation
Child’s First Name: Mason Age:__3__years
__5___months
Date: 28/5/19
Setting/Context: Indoor Area of development: Cognitive
Observation:
Mason stood at the table and carefully put one type of animal into
each compartment. He sorted the remainder of the animals until he
was left with the lion and the elephant. He then tipped the animal out
of the box and repeated the process.
This time he went to the block corner and collected two small wooden
bowls from the props shelf. He placed the elephant in one and the
lion in the other. He then lined the two wooden bowls up with the
wooden sorting box. He was looking very pleased with himself.

Mason then asked the educator why the elephant and the lion were in
the separate bowls. “Because they don’t belong,’ he said. ‘They not
farm animals.’
Interpretation/Analysis of Development:
Through this experience I observed Mason understands how to classify objects by sorting and grouping
similar animals together. He classified the group of animals as ‘farm animal’ and was able to exclude the
lion and the elephant, which he said did not belong to the set of the farm animals.
Mason has an age-appropriate understanding of classification and was able to use his problem-solving
skills to deal with the lion and the elephant, which clearly did not belong to the farm animal set.
Future Goal:
To tackle a more complex sorting task.
Future Experience and Resources:
Sorting Animal into worksheet.

Work Sample
Child’s First Name: Mason Age:_3__years _5___months Observer: Vivianne Lee
Setting/context: Indoor Area of development: Fine Motor Skill
Collect a work sample from your focus child (documentation of the child’s drawing, artwork, writing sample,
photograph of construction etc.). Insert the original piece of work with the child’s permission or photocopy the
piece of work and insert or attach to the assessment. You are required to write a brief description about the work
sample. You may include the child’s comments regarding the sample (as appropriate).
Interpretation/Analysis of Development:
 Mason’s has created an amazing piece of artwork ‘Rainbow Painting ‘with the use of different
colours. He initially used a different colours to paint a rainbow, which then followed by using
various colour pencils to colour the outlines. This has demonstrated his imaginative skills and his
motor skills. He would also have developed good eyes and hand coordination if he continues to do
so.
Future Goal: Mason should draw/paint more in the future, as this can make him more expressive and allow his
imagination to run wild.
Future Experience and Resources:
 He should explore more use of colours, as he currently only knew how to use blue, green, purple
and red. Alternatively, he should try mixing colours such as red and blue to make purple.
