Task 2: Developmental summary
Using the observations on ‘Lilu’ for Task 1 complete a Learning and Development Summary.
The Learning and Development summary must describe the progress that the child is making towards each EYLF Outcome (or approved Learning Framework) and cover all developmental domains
EYLF Outcomes are:
• Children have a strong sense of identity (Emotional development)
• Children are connected with and contribute to their world (Social development)
• Children have a strong sense of wellbeing (Physical – gross and fine motor and
Emotional development)
• Children are confident and involved learners (Cognitive development) • Children are effective communicators (Communication development)
The Learning and Development Summary must identify the child’s: • Interests
• Strengths
• Emerging skills • Relationships
The Learning and Developmental Summary must identify the child’s:
• Interests
• Strengths
• Emerging skills
• Future planning

Task 3: Planned experiences
Apply the knowledge you have gained from the observations and developmental summary completed on ‘Lilu’ to:
a) Write up two (2) experience plans to support ‘Lilu’s’ development, you may choose to implement an experience or set up a learning centre based on the information collected about the child
One (1) experience plan must be for the indoor environment. One (1) experience must be for the outdoor environment.
One plan must aim
o to promote children’s creative expression,
o to provide an opportunity for you to share an example of creative expression in art,
architecture, inventions, music or dance.
o to provide an opportunity for you to teach children techniques when using
materials and equipment
Both plans must include a creative transition to and from the experience or learning centre.
Please note for each of these two (2) experiences you will NOT be implementing them so you will NOT need to complete the ‘evaluation/ reflection’ section or the ‘follow up ideas’ section of your Experience Plans, these have been ‘greyed out’ in the experience plan template below. All other sections must be completed.
??????????The following experience plan proforma has been developed to use for this task. Please see
Assessment tips for information on how to complete this Experience Plan successfully.

example of creative expression in art, architecture, inventions, music or dance to share with
children)
b) detail safety considerations
?????How will you transition the children to and from the experience and involve them in it?
?????Describe how you will teach children techniques when using materials and equipment.(one plan)
