Hi all. I'm a year 3 student (BA honours primary Education) and am placed in a reception class. On Tuesday I'm doing a circle time about how we all have different preferences. I was going to use a puppet (panda) as a focus and discuss how he is different to the children as a starting point e.g. what he likes to eat....but seeing as I'm using him for Numeracy I don't want to over use it. Any nice ideas?

I have been puzzling over how I can developing problem solving, reasoning and numeracy within self initiated activites. I thought about challenge cards eg How many seconds does it take for your marble to reach the bottom of a 10 peice marble run. Has anyone used 'I can' statements eg I can build a tower of 8 blocks. How many different colours have you used? What do you do? I know the dreaded Ofsted are looking at this.

Hi, I'm having a bit of a panic! We have to do a whole school information evening next week for parents about the 4 rules of number. The Nursery teacher is talking about addition & subtraction in FS while I've been given Multiplication & Division. Has anyone done anything like this before and, if so, what kind of things did you include? FS coordinator will do an intro but then it's up to us to do the rest... what that is I'm not entirely sure yet! All help will be gratefully received

Too Many Observations
by Guest- 11 replies

My early years advisor visited today, and it seems I'm doing too many detailed observations. She said my planned activities, 2 or 3 a day were ok, but the observations were way too detailed, and it only really needs to say who had particular wow moments, something really amazing, or those that didn't get it or were struggling with a particular skill. And it can also be done on the weekly evaluation sheet. Also talked about rolling snack, which we don't do. Seems it's ok to have group snack if you can justify it, the same for free flow outdoors. Confesed I hadn't looked at the SEF and she said it wasn't a problem, as it was my choice. I'm certainly going to cut down…

Planning Again

Help! I' really struggling now to get my head around what is required! Was feeling fairly comfortable with mine and how my days were structured plenty of child initiated alongside delivering curriculum as required with planning for literacy, numeracy and phonics and then a weekly plan outlining any extension activtiies on offer to cover all areas. Children have free access to all activities during their CI time. Any way went to group meeting re planning last week and was told way too much planning and shouldn't be planning literacy and numeracy seperately or from framework which i was using alongside eyfs. Now thoroughly confused school asks for seperate plans but being t…

Counting In 2s

Hi, I am trying to plan ideas for my PSRN adult led activity next week and seem to be going round in circles and getting more confused - the help/ideas I've received on previous posts has been really useful. We are doing jungle animals and on Monday I am planning to do a jungle expedition around the school grounds after reading Rumble in the Jungle. I am hoping to try and introduce the children to the concept of counting in 2s but am finding it tricky to know how to introduce the concept (I'm an NQT). I was thinking of relating it to counting the dots on a leopard that we took a picture of on our expedition and maybe couting the ears of the monkey family. …

Baseline Assesment Of F1 New Starter

Hi, We have just had our new intake of F1 children. I am aware that I need to make a clear baseline assesment of them, especially as many of our children arrive below the national average. How do I do this? I have been told by our LA not to use the FSP, which is fine as many will get 0. How do you set up activites that will assess them on all the areas against all the objectives as obviously we need to find out which band is their best fit to work out their next steps. If I seem cluess then it's because I am - have never worked in FSU and have moved from KS2!!! Have managed to get through the first term, but am really aware I have sooo much to do and though…
