DOCUMENTATION
Running records:
10: I was setting up a table for an activity when Tina came and asked me whether she could do the activity. She came along with
her friend. I told her to wait for a minute and I will call you. I set up a table with green paint with a piece of broccoli and a paper as
today’s activity was related to ‘eating a rainbow’ to extend a healthy eating habit.

10:03 I invited them to do the painting with broccoli, as I was extending eat a rainbow learning activity. I helped them to put on an
apron. Demonstrate to them how we do it and encourage them to follow how I did it.

10:05 Tina ‘This looks very easy’ said. Manisha agreed and said ‘yes’. They dipped the broccoli in the green paint and painted the
paper with it.

10: 08 Manisha ‘ Teacher can we eat this broccoli’ she asked. I smiled and gave the reply ‘No we are not able to eat this broccoli
because it has paint all over it but if you want to eat it we can eat it in our lunchtime’.

10:10 I wiped their hands with a wet wipe and encouraged them to send for friends for an activity.

REFLECTING and REVIEWING

How did the children respond? Did they achieve the learning objective? Were there any unexpected outcomes? What was your role? How
did you support and teach the children? Would you do anything differently? Where to next?
Children showed positive responses to the activity. The children enhanced their sense of different plants as well as their fine motor
skills and creativity skills as they listened to the educators explaining and created red and green leaf paintings.
EYLF Outcome 1.1.4
I was encouraging the children to participate in the activity. I demonstrated how to do it and encourage them to follow it.
To extend the Eat a rainbow activity, I will encourage the children to participate in another activity.
