Collect Information Observation
What do you observe or notice? Look for the extraordinary in the ordinary moments by making learning visible.
Question and Analyse - Observation
What do you understand about what you observed? What did you find interesting or extraordinary? What learning is being demonstrated?

Link the information to EYLF/VEYLDF learning outcomes.
PART 2
Plan
Name of Experience:
Learning Intention/s to achieve by the end of experience (one or two):
For children to understand For children to exploreFor children to practice etc
Strategies: What strategies you might use to promote childrens interest, play and learning? This might include interations, resources, intentional teaching. You might include some examples of modelling, scaffolding or open ended questions. How will you encourage children to learn from each other? How will the environment support play and learning? Remember to be specific and include the necessary materials, setting e.g., indoor/outdoor etc.
Act and Do (Implementation)
Implement your experience: Provide a step-by-step guide of how the learning experience will be implemented. Include any modifications made to your plan once the experience was implemented. Where there any emergent experience that arose? Give specific examples of childrens involvement. What learning processes have you observed the children using (problem solving, inquiry, experimentation, hypothesising, researching, investigating)?
Review and Reflect (Evaluation)
Review: With the learning aims and the EYLF/VEYLDF learning outcomes in mind, evaluate the learning and the planning. What worked well?
What can you improve? Do you need to repeat, refine or extend the plan? How will you follow up?
Reflect: What did you learn about yourself and your practice as a teacher. Any changes to your practice as a result?
