Hi all I am just after a few ideas.... A colleague wants to do the topic of food and farming with our recepetion classes in the summer term..... a long way off I know... However... Have any of you wise people done this as a topic? Can you suggest any good activities? Any good books? Just to give me a nudge in the right direction... and save us looking at a blank piece of paper. We are aware that it is the year of food and farming and of the related website for KS1+. For anyone that is interested. http://www.foodafactoflife.org.uk/ Thanks in advance. Lorna

We are two NQT's starting in Reception and would appreciate any advice on planning for literacy and numeracy and how to organise our timetable. We are both trained in early years however finding it difficult to organise our day as we have no guidance on how it was run before we arrived. If anyone has a copy of a timetable on how to incorporate phonics, literacy and numeracy into the day it would be very helpful. Do you normally incorporate phonics into the literacy lesson?

Hi - is there anybody out there from Birmingham who has undertaken their autumn term assessments for the new Progress Towards The Profile???? I need a bit of clarification if so!!!!!!! My question is - when i am entering my judgements (highlighting on the A$ sheet that was provided with the materials) (Not recieved an electronic version yet??), if i judge that a child has achieved say a 1 and an a/d scale - do i hioghlight all of these for the autumn term ???? Sorry if this seems like a bit of a stupid question but before i go & mess it all up i just need some reassurance that my understanding is right!! (God am i ready for a break!!!!) Thanks in anticipation …

At present I am workng on topics that I have devised as there was no planning left by the previous teacher (although my topics sometimes go off on a tangent due to children's interests). I am also struggling (like so many) with getting the daily balance right between child initiated and adult led activities. This is larg…
