Hi there, I am looking closely at behaviour of children in the Foundation Stage. If you have a few minutes I would be grateful if you could jot down all the factors that you think affect behaviour. This will help to inspire my 2500 word assignment I have talked myself into doing. It`s for a Certificate in Early Years Education.
