Hi everyone! Just seeing if I can pick your fantastic brains! I've got an interview for a school Nursery Teacher on Tuesday and as part of the interview I have to do a 15min activity with 8 children, I haven't any idea of what sort of thing to do at all and wondered if anyone had some good ideas or successful activies they have done?? I currently teach in a pre~school but my mind has gone blank and I really want to impress! Any suggestions would be great! Thank you!

Hi, Anyone know where i can find a one page A4 at a glance summary of the ages and stages to use as and highlight for each Preschooler going to school. We use more detailed pages to highlight which equates to about 22 pages of A4 for each child. I'm looking for a simplistic overview. Thanks

Just wondered if anyone had an views.... One of our parents has asked for some advice for her 2 1/2 year old... she is showing some tendencies towards left handedness and I've advised her that children can switch and not show a true preference until later on... but she is wondering whether to encourage the use of scissors in her left hand or her right or does it not matter? I'm left handed myself and would say that it is really important to use left handed scissors and be shown how to cut out anti-clockwise... but what if the child hasn't got a preference? Any views would be gratefully received! Thanks

Adult Led Activities

I'm working in a new council area, and I'm not used to their rules lol, now I know EYFS says we should have a mix of child initiated and adult led activities, but our advisory teacher says we can't call them activities, it has to be experiences!! Does anyone plan particular "experiences" in their short term planning? We're using the room story 1 and 2 for our birth to three age range, and I'd like to see the staff planning adult led activities (experiences!!!!!!), is this someone we can do? It's something I did in the last nursery however it was in a different LEA!
