EYLF Experience Plan for Developing Writing Skills with Story Books

This assignment presents an experience plan designed to enhance young children's writing skills through the use of story book pictures, specifically fairy tales like "Three Little Bears." The plan aligns with the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) and incorporates Blank's levels of language extra...Read More

Experience plan
Date of implementation:
1. Title of experience – Writing teaching resources
Story book pictures can be extremely helpful for children to develop their writing skills. Fairy tale
story pictures like pictures of “three little bears” can be shown to the student and students will
have to write a paragraph on their own. Questions like “Why does the three little pigs look very
fearful .Several questions can be constructed such that all the contexts of the story are covered.
Blank’s conceptualization of language is the applicable across all the ages. Blank has
identified certain levels of language extraction –Level 1 (Matching perception). This allows the
student to map directly on what they see. The level 2 involves the selective analysis of the
perception that requires the children to resist their global perception and respond selectively to
the different features of the situation, like the size, shape, color and the function. The level 4
involves, reasoning about perception that deals with demands, the children think about what
might have happened to the materials.
Materials required and a diagram or photo of set up:
Materials: worksheets
Crayons , pencils
Composition using picture books

A rationale linking the justification of the learning experience to the skills identified in the observation
and ensuring the plan meets both the capabilities, interests and cultural contexts of the child
Many picture books are constructed with high level of the pictures that can become difficult for
the children to comprehend. But simple pictures helps the student to give their own narrative
review of the stories. The illustrations of the picture books helps the children to analyse the story.
Whenever, the children will have difficulty, the pictures would help them to figure it out. The
rationale for choosing this activity is that the picture books allow the children to deal with the
sounds of language and it is the duty of the educator to introduce new and interesting words at
every occasion, so that the vocabulary of the children increases.
A link to an EYLF principle which relates to the underpinning philosophy of the experience plan :
. The early childhood educators work in partnership with the student to set up the activities for developing
writing skills in the students.
A list of developmental learning outcomes that are specific and can be evaluated and demonstrate

developmental progression from the skills identified in the original documentation:
 Students will be able to write narratives using the picture displayed in the book.
 Students will be able to demonstrate excellent writing skills and rich vocabulary.
A link to an EYLF outcome listing the specific aspect of child evidence example:
The following activity can be linked directly to the ELYF outcome 4.0, which states that children
are confident learners. The learning outcome states that the children can develop an
understanding of themselves and their world by the active, hands on investigation. It helps in the
engagement of the learning that can be recognized as deep focus and concentration on anything
that captures their interests.
A list of the teaching strategies identifying how you will help the child meet each of the learning
outcomes you have planned
 Before writing the narratives about the three little pigs. Children will be provided with a
worksheet, where children will have to colour the empty spaces in the drawing of the
three little pigs. Children love art and crafts and therefore they spend so much time in
colouring, drawing or doing the crafts.
 A worksheet was delivered to the students containing a picture of the “three little bears’,
where the students will initially asked to colour the pictures, then would narrate their
own understanding in space provided below the pictures. Merit cards can be given to
those students who will receive about 25 points in a score of 30.

Learning outcome 4
A link to which EYLF practice your plan most relates to your teaching approach :
Children are connected with and contribute to their world.
An evaluation that clearly describes the child’s progression towards achieving each of the learning
outcomes with examples of the child’s interaction with the environment, materials and others:
After the completion of the activity, children will be able to demonstrate good writing skills, using good sets
of vocabulary. Each children will be able to construct more advanced and complex stories using pictures.
An evaluation of any other aspects of the planning that impacted on the success of the child’s
achievement
Digital devices could have been used for the storytelling activity.
A follow up of each experience that includes a brief description of the experience and the learning
outcome(s) to be achieved that reflects the child’s demonstrated skills, interests and cultural context:
Students will be made to the colour pictures and narrate their own understanding on the picture of the
three little bears.
The activity would obviously help in developing the literary skills in children.
