Hi guys, I'm after some help (as usual). For some course work I'm doing a plan, discussing EL goals and progrssion. I have a cild who is able to recite numbers but not use them as labels, working to the foundation stage curriculum, which colour band would he be in, yellow or blue. I realise this may be a really silly question, but I think my brain has switched off since the children came home. thanks Sally

Planning For Creche

Hi all Does anyone on the forum work in a creche or support creche settings (and i suppose playgroups may be similar). Im very passionate about planning for children's interests and am working with a lot of settings who are still very strongly topic based to encourage them to adopt a more child centred approach. I would be interested to here how other people in these type settings plan.

We have spotted a schema common amongst several children over the course of this week and last, and would like to incorporate this into our child-led 'motivational planning'. I have done a quick mindmap for Rotation which includes things like marble painting in a tin (adapted for Autumn by using conkers, acorns etc), Big Builder using nuts and bolts and wheels, magnetic vehicle set, hoops, cars and tunnels (various carboard tubes of different diameters), paint spinner, cog set, my apple peeler and corer machine (deadly but great fun!), ribbons and flags for dancing, shaving foam/corn flour in tuff spot, garage role play with toolkits, clocks, skittles.... What wonderful…

Just found this article on schemas. Thought I'd share it as I find schemas quite confusing and this makes it really simple. It's from Dorset For You - the Dorset council website. They have some great planning and activity ideas as well. I would add a link but I don't know how. Sally Schemas - Dorset For You

Hi guys, I was interested to read about the planning that some of you do around books. Would this be an appropriate method in a pre-school where most of the children are under 4, or is it mostly for in reception classes. Sally
