I am in the first term of my early years degree and very keen VERY, not to get a fail grade on my first assignments........ At the start of the course the "D" grade our one tutor mentioned often, as a good starting point for "newbies" sounded really awful.

Hi Has anyone used the Mosaic appraoch tool of "Tours" before. I have to use this as my next activity with OU and just wondered if anyone has any good advice as I'm only at the setting two days a week. How long does a tour generally take with a 3 year old children ? Would it be good practice to do it with more than one child at a time? Am I right in think the "tour tool" also allow's the use of a camera. Sorry to be so vague, having not untook something like this before I wnat to ensure I get it right from the start with time so precious. Sam

I was going to choose reading in my old placement school with the 3-5 years old children. I have now choose this for my BA (hons) top up dissertation topic so thats next year sorted.
