Gathering evidence through observation – floorbooks

At Tongwynlais Primary, the science subject leader ensures that ‘rich science activities’ are recorded through a class floorbook, particularly within Foundation Phase. The floorbook can include electronic annotations (e.g. pic-collage) or handwritten notes of the children’s utterances during investigations.

The subject leader shares these examples with other teachers and with parents, therefore whilst the recorded comments are linked to assessment tick sheets.
