Hello all.... I am currently in the process of totally re vamping our planning system, and would really appreciate any help/guidance/advice on what you all do to ensure that all your children are planned for.... :huh: I am aware all settings approach this in very different ways, but would love to know if anyone has a relatively simple system in place. does everyone do individual planning for their key children every week, or rather do you all contribute to one plan for the room, if so how can you choose and ensure all children are equally considered. any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks...

Please could you advise me. I mentioned before that I had a little boys starting with us, whose parents do not speak to him in English, but they wanted us to teach him English. He only watches Hungarian programs at home and when I asked why mum and dad will not speak to him in English, mum replied that it was due to her accent. She wanted him to pick up the correct pronunciation of words. The little boy is from Hungary and I have typed up a short list of words in Hungarian for the staff to use, which then should be followed up by the English word. Mum was upset with us when she found out, because she said that she wants us to just speak English to him, but if he is …

please can someone give me a bit of advice. We have always planned on a weekly basis using next steps on observations as guidance for our planning for the following week. Planning is carried out on an individual basis. We haven't had a long or medium term plan apart from noting what festivals/celebrations take place each month, when reports are due, parents evening etc. We have an overall basic room planner which covers the 7 areas of learning and allows us to set the room up each day, adapting and adding where needed across the week. What should we be doing long and medium term planning wise if anything?? Appreciate any views on this! Thanks :blink:

Hello I am interested in putting a paint station in our creative area to encourage C.I.L. and was wondering if anyone knew if there were any resources out their that I could use. My idea is to use a small flip photo album with printed cards showing how to mix up powder paints, shades,textures etc. Card 1 would show how many spoons of powder paint, cards 2 would show how much water to add and so on. Needs to be colourful and simple for 2-4's. many thanks :wacko:
