2. Critical Thinking Assignment (10 pts.)

The purpose of this assignment is to evaluate your ability to identify components of accurate recordkeeping, documentation, and describe various formats used for documentation. Knowing how to properly document safety procedures and incidents is important for the early childhood professional. Review the five formats from the lesson:

• Checklists (playground safety, maintenance inspection)
• Information logs (illness, diapering, sign-in/sign-out)
• Permission forms (field trips, transportation, medication administration)
• Fill-in-the-blank documents (enrollment, emergency information card, health assessment)
• Description paragraphs [also known as “charting”] (observations, accidental events)
• as well as explain the principles of safe medication documentation and management.

Contact an early childhood program (e.g., center, family child care home, or school-based program) and choose three different forms to review. Write a critical assessment of each form identifying these three components: the purpose, the strengths, and the areas of improvement for EACH form. EACH of three assessments should be a minimum of 200 words.

Questions to think about while formulating your assessment:

Be sure to summarize your responses to all questions thoroughly for each form collected. Use information from the lesson to support your response. Review the Lesson 3 Critical Thinking rubric(opens in a new tab) to know how your instructor will grade this assignment.
