[niceday7]

Hi mane is Julia im currently making my - FETAC 5 in Early Childhood care and Education in Cork - ireland. Just wondering if can anyone help me with my observations? I did physical one for 4yrs old using narrative,evaluation, personal learning and reccommendation . I have to do a cognitive development observation but im stuck with what method to use instead of narrative ? Evaluation, personal learning and reccommendation have to come with this . Does anyone have any example or idea how to perform this observation? Thank you
