Hi all, I'm hoping somebody will be able to help me with a rather silly question!! I'm after a word or phrase which relates to play with 'real' objects not items manufactured particularly as toys. I hope that makes sense and I'm sure there is a special word but I just can't think of it :wacko: I'm studying a DVD extract of some children using some medical equipment such as plastic syringes, kidney bowls, plasters, sterile dressings but they are all proper 'BOOTS THE CHEMIST' (other pharmacies are available ) not Toys R Us toys... Hope this makes sense!! Thank you!!

I am so fed up with this course - supposed to be handing in 2803 and 2804 in on Monday and haven't done either. I have been sat at my computer since 8am and typed a whole 196 words - most of that is the titles!! - The other essays I have managed to muddle through using the notes from lectures and text books but 2803 in particular has me totally stumped - I am completely clueless as to what I should be writing. I may as well have written my notes in Russian for all the sense they make. I have seriously contemplated giving up and stopping the course but I can't afford to pay back the money - not much of an incentive to keep going!! Some ideas on what I should be…

Ok, here goes ! As many of you know I have been struggling with my foundation degree, I was going to jack it all in this week, as I just can't get my self motivated to do my assignments which have to be in next week ! Yesterday I spoke to my mentor(for two hours) who has known me for many, many years and she has managed to talk some sense into me ! Well I think she has ! Now I'm going to have to be super woman to be able to hand in my assignments, as I don't type very well and I am struggling with writing in an academic style, it maybe be a tall order. I did have a half hearted attempt last week, but not really much progress made as I have not written an…

I've been writing an essay and just gone to sort out the Harvard references (nightmare starts). I have one quote which is; playing games “can encourage successful learning and increase self esteem” (Briggs and Davis, pg 99). I can't remember where I got this from. I've checked all my books and downloaded documents, looked on Amazon and Google and poured through my tutorial notes - nothing. Does anyone recognise the names? Or, failing that, does anyone have another quote I can use which says the same thing? I'm getting very pushed for time and beginning to panic a bit

Just wondered if I was the only one getting a little bit anxious about results?? What a time to publish them - 18th December!! Am keeping fingers crossed that they will come out early so I can enjoy Christmas (hopefully!!) and knuckle down to my E100 TMA, which I can't concentrate on because I WANT MY RESULTS... Good luck to everyone waiting for results - whatever they have been studying :wacko: :rolleyes:

Hi ! I was wondering if anyone can give me some advice on typing up some observations on the computer, I have for an assignment. Normally I just write them when at work, but never have had to process them on the computer. I don't think the observation form I've got will be big enough to type in all the information and unfortunately I'm not good at typing or ICT so can't produce my own. I did read on another thread about someone numbering the lines in their observations, how do you do this and in what format ? I also need to do a target child observation and we do not do this kind of observation in my setting so have no sheets, could someone be kind enough to pos…

Hello everyone! I hope you all have a fantastic Christmas! I am on the forum tonight looking for some advice. I am currently doing a foundation degree assignment on behaviour management. Fortunately I don't work with any children with a real challenging behaviour.I'm a children's worker whose main role includes working in our Creches or running 'Stay and Play' sessions. I am trying to to do my assignment on positive reinforcement and rolemodelling, and how we manage children's challenging behaviour through the ethos of these groups/sessions. The problem I am having is finding arguements for and against these methods by theorist or in current research! Although I have …
