DM - Pointing to/naming body parts

[Guest]

I am sure it's in the DM somewhere, but I can't find it!

Where does pointing to/naming body parts come, in terms of areas of learning/stage of development?

Can anyone help?

I don't think it is mentioned specifically other than in PSED under SC&SA in the 8-20 months section (enjoys finding eyes, nose and tummy as part of a naming game). I'm guessing you might be referring to a slightly older child though. I would probably consider it as being part of PD under H&SC but it's not mentioned there.

Many thanks for your reply Wendy - I wondered if I was missing it! Yes you're right - the children concerned are 3 years + and EAL.
