Guest Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 hi, how about mathematics, shape, space and measure 30-50 months : shows an interest in shape and space by playing with or making arrangements with objects. Or Expressive arts and design, Being imaginative 22-36 months : beginning to use representation to communicate. Could also cover communication and language, speaking 22-36 months : uses language as a powerful means of widening contacts, sharing feelings and thoughts. also communication and language 30-50 months : uses talk in pretending that objects stand for something else.

Guest Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 depends on context really - it would be definately be ead - being imaginitive in 22-36 band - this statement * Beginning to use representation to communicate, e.g. drawing a line and saying ‘That’s me.’ and exploring and usind materials and media in 30-50 band * Uses various construction materials would be physical - moving and handling * Shows control in holding and using jugs to pour, hammers, books and mark-making tools could be other prime area depending on context could be pse - making relationships - if playing with another child or showing interest in them, or showing pride/choosing resources or c+l if there was any speech/gesture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_35585 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Why would you have to link it to just the prime areas? Even under 3yrs can be observed in all areas although the main focus is the prime areas :-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonyMouse_46692 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 if you can't see a best 'fit' it will link to CoEL also. I have lots of obs that don't really fit, but for example you know it would fit into PD (on the EYFS 2008, was earier to link PD I feel!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
