Steps for Observation
- Identify observation subject and purpose.
- Choose the observation method and necessary materials.
- Record observation accurately, including date, time, and setting.
Assessing Stages of Scribbling
- Stage 1 (disordered/random):
- Starts around one year old and lasts until 1-2.5 years
- Characters are random, often by using an undefined line direction
- Children are often engaged and focused on the drawing
- Stage 2 (controlled):
- Starts around 2.5–3.5 years old
- More controlled, defined lines
- Children show a better understanding of how to draw and use a tool
- Stage 3 (representational):
- Starts around 3.5 years old and continues until about 5
- Children focus on drawing objects
- Children can name and label objects by their drawing
- Stage 4 (preschematic):
- Starts around age 5
- More organized, with more consistent shapes and a base to their drawings
- Drawings can more accurately represent objects, though not always perfectly
- Assessing stages of scribbling can be useful to understand a child's development
