Child A has gone into the writing area and found a clipboard and went to the scrap paper drawer and got a grid with children’s names on. He attached the piece of paper to his clip board and got a pencil.
Child A held the clip board and walked around the class room.
Child A - “Good afternoon Philip.”
Philip – “Good afternoon Child A”
Child A made a mark on his piece of paper as if he was taking the register. Child A went up to every child in the nursery and said good afternoon, he would wait for their response and then mark off the piece of paper.
Child A came up to a new child in the nursery.
Child A – “Good afternoon. Excuse me, good afternoon, what is your name?”
R – “My name is Rudi.”
Child A - “Okay, Good afternoon Rudi.”
Child A waited - “you need to say good afternoon back for the register.”
R – “Good afternoon.”
Child A – “okay, I need to add you on the register, you aren’t on there yet.”
Child A ‘wrote’ Rudi’s name on the paper by making marks.
Child A then pretended to count out loud all the people on the register “okay, so there are 12 people here today.”
