Whole view of the child.
While observing the child you should watch the children, through play. Through observation we can have a better understanding of there likes and dislikes, you can also find out there interetests, this can be used while planning and providing a lesson based around there age and stage. For example if a child likes peppa pig you can provide a lesson which includes something to do with Peppa pig, but still following the curriculum. This is helpful as you grab there attention and they will be more willing to do the work as its something they enjoy. We can figure out what strategies work for the children, from this we can attain there goals. While observing we can then figure out what skills there children need to practice on, this will help there development and help them to reach there full potential. While observing the child we can begin to understand them and there personalities. For example a child might be reserves and does not like taking risks. This can help you plan and provide the child a lesson in which they will enjoy more. You need to consider there developmental level, for example if a child is playing with a ball she will throw it either very hard or not at all but she does not vary the throw along a continuum of very hard, hard and soft. From this you can figure out how far along she is in her development stage.
