Documentation, Assessment, and Planning in Early Childhood Ed

This assignment focuses on documentation, planning, and assessment within early childhood education. It provides a detailed record of observing a four-year-old child, Alexa, during play-based learning. The documentation includes observations of Alexa's engagement with toys and colors, focusing on her visual representation and creativity. The assessment section reflects on the domains, milestones, and dispositions demonstrated by the child, linking them to the observation. It analyzes Alexa's imagination, color combination skills, and contributions to shared experiences. The assignment also examines the learning and curriculum areas involved, such as the development of relationships and STEM concepts. It applies Vygotsky's sociocultural theory and the Early Years Learning Framework to understand Alexa's interactions and knowledge acquisition. Furthermore, the assignment analyzes the pedagogical skills and knowledge demonstrated by educators, emphasizing play-based pedagogies and teaching strategies. Based on the documentation and assessment, the assignment designs a one-day curriculum and learning environment for the children, including objectives for holistic learning and development, a learning experience outline, and a list of required materials. It emphasizes the importance of emotional and physical growth, positive thinking, and engagement in enjoyable interactions.

DOCUMENTATION, PLANNING AND ASSESSMENT RECORD
Context: The information is about the 4 years old children, name with Alexa, Engaging child with playing toys and toddlers.

Here, observation for the children with the help of behaviour towards keeping focus on visual representation. While through which Alexa keep their attraction towards making some activities
and that might be important for the children for learning some things new. While in such situation Alexa will play with the colours and make drawing in which she will come to know about
how the colours being used and make many drawing that could help her for increasing knowledge. This make also help for developing about the personal objective and keeping the observation
that will help for mainly focus towards the activities about the children (Cheng, 2021). this could help the child for learning something new about the various things that could help her for know
about colours and how t make use about such things.. in keeping the child engaged with those things in which they can easily come to know about how they have to play and how they can make
their proper connection.
ASSESSMENT
Each portion of the documentation above is to be reflected on and identified domains, milestones and dispositions must be linked to where the skill was demonstrated in the observation and
referenced.
Domains Milestones Dispositions
I come to know about the Alexa about she is playing
with the colours in such a way that could help her for
having the growth and opportunities . While keeping
observation I have taken the benefits in which this
could be easier for identifying about the things that
could help the child in future aspects (Westerhof,
2021). I have also collected the various areas in which
the child can understand about those things which will
play in front of child. As they easily come to know
those things in which they can easily keep in mind
about the various things.
Children with educated more about the imagination and creativity which
could be the most important mean for serving this purpose they rank
foremost among the factors that require our attention the most. As they
are also experimenting about the colour combination and drawing out
their some imagination. While having such this could help them for
keeping the better and skills along with knowledgeable goals and
objective (Yousif, 2021). I have also observe about that as they are
exploring some new topic while playing with colours and make sure for
having some better estimation in which they can draw many more things
and that could might become more important for them. In such kind of
activities as they can involve the creativity and many other new things
While keeping the painting for the children and that could
being so important for them in knowing about those things
which could help them for knowing about the things related
to the certain things. Also shown that she recognises the
contributions she makes to shared experiences – “Let’s
make a house” “I like our house”. Through having the
observation the child have learn many things while drawing
many things (Matviienko & et.al., 2021).

which could make some other child to learn about their new things. As I
have also observed that while playing with colours Alexa also come to
know about how to develop the self confidence while by creating some
picture and that could help them for having the better growth and
opportunities in which they can easily come to know about how they
usually deal over any situation.
LEARNING and CURRICULUM
Each portion of the documentation is to be analysed for learning that is occurring and the curriculum areas the children are engaging in
Learning Curriculum Areas
This have been shown about the respects and relationship while this could display about the peers
and interaction among the people. Learning can cause and effect about the actions that made by
child and try to becoming more interaction with their actions.
This displays about the combination in which the children learn about the words and try
to make their own sentence as that could keep them developed about the various things
(Ishibashi and Moriguchi, 2021). This could STEM which could seems about for leaning
twigs which could help for representing about the various things as that could help them

Development and Education Theory Early Years Learning Framework Principles, Practices, Outcomes
Vygotsky's Sociocultural Theory in this interaction with the world. As usually this could help the
Alexa for knowing about those things which could make them with having proper growth and
opportunities. This could also led with the proper knowledge about the sources in which they can
easily gain much effectvi8e concepts and that would be more effective. Along with this also helps
for knowing about what the situation and usually the child can deal over that. While this could also
led with happening some new things and make sure for knowing about those things which could
This could be seems that Alexa have to come know about how they usually deal with
having situation and make sure for having the high demand in which they can work.
