Goal - to count the train cars and write the number on the line. (counting and writing numerals)
Outcome - Today Ashton completed a counting worksheet, for each question he had to count the train cars and write the number on the line. Ashton was able to count the train cars and I wrote the number on the line for him to copy. Ashton attempted to copy each number with stroke like motions.
[27/2/21, 6:11:07 pm] Chantelle Burns Nanny : 27/02/21 Video 2 - Science year one (light and dark)
Goal - explore the concept of light and dark through the use of a peek box. (making scientific observations)
Outcome - Today I made a peek box filled with shiny stickers for year one science, so we could explore the concept of light and dark. Ashton needed to look through the hole on the box when it was closed, opened and also with a torch shining through. At each stage I discussed/asked questions with Ashton about the darkness and light within the box and how this changed what we were able to see. Ashton was able to recognise that we couldn't see much when the box was dark, but as we added light we could see the shiny stickers. Ashton enjoyed looking through the hole when we used the torch.

After the story Ashton needed to complete a worksheet that required him to draw the party food items. Ashton did an excellent job trying to draw the party food items, he even wanted to pick the correct colours for the jelly. When it came time to draw the balloon, Ashton pretended the balloon was taking him up into the sky so I popped it for him. This was great imaginative role play initiated by Ashton. There was a writing portion to this worksheet and I wrote the corresponding words whilst showing them to Ashton.
[26/2/21, 6:44:16 pm] Chantelle Burns Nanny : 26/02/21 Video 4 - Math U See (2e)

Goal - sequencing a story (first, next and last).
Outcome - In our first lesson today we needed to answer three questions based on sequencing. We listened to, The Little Red Hen and afterwards we answered the three questions (these were based on first, next and last). Ashton needed some help with these questions so I assisted him. In our next lesson Ashton had to complete a quiz, again on sequencing. There were five questions and each question told a different mini story. Ashton needed to answer the questions and was asked about first, next and last. At times Ashton needed my help to answer the questions.

Goal - counting 6-10 quiz and completing a counting worksheet.
Outcome - For our first math lesson today Ashton needed to complete a five question quiz. Each question showed Ashton a group of something and he had to count that group and select the appropriate answer (he either had to select a group with the same amount or a group that had a different amount, depending on the question). At times Ashton needed assistance to motivate him to complete the questions. Our next lesson was a worksheet and Ashton had to count each group of items and write the corresponding number on the line. I got a Ashton to count each group and I wrote the number on the line for him to copy. Ashton attempted to copy the numbers with a scribble like motion.
[26/2/21, 6:49:15 pm] Chantelle Burns Nanny : 26/02/21 Video 10 - Time 4 Learning (science)
Goal - location and perspective, picking the correct answer out of two options (for example which one is under the fence?).
Outcome - Ashton was presented with a series of location and perspective questions for science today. For example the first question showed a picture of two girls swinging (one was low and the other was high), Ashton needed to select the one that was low and he was able to do this. Ashton answered all of the following location and perspective questions independently. At the end Ashton was very excited as he was presented with a medal, which he pretended to place around his neck.

Goal - to predict and draw what will happen in the story and listen to the story.
Outcome - Before we started our story today I asked Ashton to predict what he thought would happen and to draw a picture. Ashton said it was a birthday party and I told him he could draw a cake. Ashton attempted to draw a cake and we went on to read the story. During the story lots of party food items were shown and Ashton was pretending to eat them all. This was his own idea and showed great imagination. Ashton really enjoyed this story and the theme.

First time
Ashton had all his soft sea creatures and was playing a game with Anastasia, the third time they have played together after dinner.
He then put all his sea creatures into bed with him ( he has never done that before ) Ashton never has a soft toy or sleeps with anything. I asked a couple of times if he wanted them out away, he said no. When it was sleep time we put them all away and when he woke in the morning he wanted them all back in again!! Amazing

[21/2/21, 2:14:14 pm] Viryan - Ashton’s Place: So good Skye, he is amazing . All the years show rewards. So good that you identified his interests as he walked across the walkway and followed them through. So easy to do when it is one on one, but also if the girls were there they could have been involved but I believe sometimes Ashton shuts down with the girls as they get very busy. Thank you

Goal - to complete experiments exploring vibrations.
Outcome - Today we watched some of the year one science video, however we only watched a short portion as it wasn't very engaging for Ashton. Next we needed to complete some experiments. The first one involved me putting my phone on vibrate in a box so that Ashton could feel the vibrations. As my phone was in the box I wasn't able to film. I got Emilie to call my phone so that Ashton could feel it vibrate. Ashton thought this was really cool and I helped him understand that the phone was vibrating through the box. Our next experiment involved blowing up a balloon and Ashton was excited for this. We had to hold the balloon while talking onto it so we could feel the vibrations and movement that our voices created. Ashton really enjoyed this and was engaged with the task. During the experiment I continued to talk about the vibrations to reinforce the concept we were exploring.

I assisted him where needed and we completed these questions together. In the next lesson we had to select the correct opposite out of two options based on what was presented to us in the question. For example we were presented with a happy face and had to select the sad one as that is the opposite. I helped Ashton to complete these questions.
