FAIZA ADHAM LEENA SHAHZAIB

Child: Leena Date: 12th March 2014 Written by: T. Natasha This morning we all went outside to enjoy the brief sunshine, during which I saw Leena reading a book on the cushions. As she continued to read I could see her becoming more engrossed in the book. Leena looked up, spotting her friend Adham and excitedly showed him the firefighter book she was reading. Adhams eyes lit up as he exclaimed FIRETRUCK, Leena responded quickly by jumping up and squealing, WEE-OH WEE-OH!! Together you ran around the playground, catching the interest of Faiza and Shahzaib. Shahzaib ran to the play house, quickly re-emerging to proudly show Adham, Leena and Faiza what he had found. As he held up the firefighter hat he had found, Leena and Adhams excitement grew and they both suggested how the firefighting team could progress. Adham exclaimed, I am driving, Im driving the firetruck! before calling out the sound of the siren as he climbed the fort to the steering wheel. Leena however called to Faiza Quick! The firetruck is waiting; we need to find the fire! Faiza then decided she wanted to help shahzaib put out the fires, and quickly they ran together to their imaginary fire by the swings saving their friend Ahmad! Review of learning Leena I was impressed while observing you in action today, particularly as you were thinking flexibly and interdependently as you created, imagined and innovated with friends. Your courage and confidence came together as you took responsibility for including all friends who were interested in your joining the firefighter team! Where to next? Leena you are getting closer to turning five and transitioning to primary school. I can see you are ready for more responsibility, demonstrating leadership potential throughout all curriculum areas. Your teachers will continue building on your leadership skills, encouraging you to assist less able peers in structured activities like you did during this dramatic play today.
