Success Criteria

I have done a search on the forums on this subject and found a lot of interesting information. We have just been introduced to this and need to start using it in Literacy (to begin with). Can anyone tell me what you do? Do you have different criteria for different abilities? How do you share them with the children? Thanks.

1 More/1 Less
by Guest- 18 replies

Please can you tell me what you look for to justify that children can find 1 more/1 less. Do you expect them to be able to identify these from memory or are you happy if they can do it by counting on their fingers/looking at a number line/re-counting when 1 has been added/taken away? Also, have you any fool-proof tips for teaching 1 more/less? A lot of mine are finding this hard and I'm worrying that it's me.

Long Term Planning

Please help I have a large brain blockage! Prob partly due to how much wine I have consumed this weekend but now i'm trying to be responsible and organised for tomorrow and it's not working.... Currently N and R cover the same topics at the same time which is a bit silly as we always struggle to share the resources and often it can also mean that children have the same topics whilst in N and R. Do people do a 3 yearly topic programme and if so how does it work. Does anyone have an example?? Please help me I cannot get my head around how to do this and I need to have something ready for tomorrow! Thanks in advance, Emma

What Is Child Initiated?
by Guest- 6 replies

we are trying to have more child initiated activities in our setting for us to observe. Does child initiated mean empty table tops etc and children choose whatever they want whether this be drawing, a game, painting or cars etc.. or does it mean putting something out such as paper, glue, selotape scissors but letting children choose what they want to do with it?

Writing Activities
by Guest- 15 replies

I would be interested to know how other people plan for writing stories,etc and sentences just to get other ideas. In our setting we encourage the child to say the sentence first, then count how many words in the sentence- we then draw that number of lines for them( or the better ones draw their own lines) .The children then repeat each word whilst attempting to write the sounds they can hear in each word - the poorer ones might just do initial sounds and the better ones write each word phonically. What other ways could we plan the transitional writing phase from 'play writing' to formal writing?
