Communication and professional relationships with children, young people and adults

Please post all questions relating to this unit here

Hiya,
I'm working on a section of Unit 1 AC2.2 - adapting communication

My tutor has given us tasks to do and I'm stuck on this particular one....

How could a TA adapt what is said and the tone that is used to express that they are not pleased with the behaviour of
a) five year olds
b) nine year olds
c) 16 year olds
and what are the main points that would differ.

Im ok with the 5 year old, but am stuck with the 9 and 16 year olds

Also, I have to do a flow chart to show how communication changes as children get older but am completely stuck! Please can anyone help me?

I know that you have to adapt how you speak and the tone you use but am finding it hard to put it into words for the different ages

tried posting this in the correct place but it wouldnt let me, sorry

I'll try to move it - what is this for?
I also talk about communication changes as we dont teach pythagoras' theorum to 5 year olds.
I would say more discussion and choice as ch get older
e.g. you would say to a 5 year old x is sad because you hit her. and then go through the what should you do
for a 9 year old I would say why did you hit x why did you do this what should you have done? I am very disappointed you made this choice. and then the sanction but I would make sure child understood why the sanction was applied and agree it was fair
as for the 16 year old I would put on a firm tone of voice and then point out what was wrong and ask for mitigating circumstance but not use those words. rubbish at 16 year olds if it was a hit I would just get smt lol
basically the older the child the more a situation can be discussed I would say. as for the actual words used mustn't that always depend on the situation

Thanks Caff, its unit 1 communication and professional relationships with children, young people and adults (Assessment Criteria 2.2)

Use the child development table you will have completed (or about to complete in the child development unit) to show this and cross reference. These two units should really work together and evidence will help in both units.

Has your tutor not given you a scenario for each age group?

Thanks Cindy, I havent had to complete a child development table... maybe this is why I'm stumped. Will google this and see what I find. It might get me started

No scenario for this question. I've already answered another question in the unit - managing disagreements - with different scenarios. I've answered with possible resolutions and responses but am stuck on how to produce a flowchart to show how communication changes as children get older.

off to look for a child development table, that may just get me started Thanks Cindy

Don't forget you can use evidence from level 2 as well x

I didnt do level 2 cindy, went straight in at level 3. Had a look the other day and think I've got it sussed. Going to get it done over half term, but not tonight, there's a bottle of wine with my name on it! lol
