Help Needed - CASE STUDY on communication/child development
Hi everyone. Im plodding along on EYE level 3 course but ive been asked to write my first case study and Im struggling..
Ive googled it to see how to structure it but unsure. Here is the content Ive been asked to study.. any help appreciated :)
2-year old Eric attends your setting regularly. His mother is concerned that he is not talking as well as he should. Eric is 27 months old and can say about 25 words that his parents can understand, but are not clear. He points and gestures to get what he wants and has some temper tantrums when he is not understood. He follows instructions given by his parents and practitioners. He is very interactive with his parents and engages easily with other children, playing mostly alongside his peers, but showing some cooperative play. He particularly likes to play with sand and he gets excited when the sand table is opened up for play. His father thinks that Eric is a late talker like he was and he thinks Eric will talk when he is ready, but Eric’s mother has noticed that his 11-month old sister is already babbling, mimicking words and saying a few words and exclamations. This is something Eric did not do at the same age.
Now you have read the case study, please explain how you would identify what support was required for Eric and his family and how you would access this.
