This is my first post on here but I am desperately seeking some guidance. I have just taken on my first teaching post and am in a reception/year 1 class. I have all the activities planned in my head but am struggling with where to go form there. I have each of the 6 areas on separate sheets with listed activities for each week.

Hi Everyone, Am currently adjusting our timetable (for what feels like the millionth time!) to include at least an hour of uninterrupted play and more child initiated planning. I think this will be good for the children but am really struggling to fit it all in as we will have 50 YR and 39 YN am/pm children.

Children will als…
