Hi, This year as past of the moderation of FSP I am being observed doing a PE lesson for an hour. I have never been through a moderation before so I am feeling quite worried! PE is not my strong point by any means! I just wondered if anybody had any great ideas for warm up/down activities and main activity ideas? I did wonder whether to do a rotation of activities so that the moderator could see them doing a range of skills e.g. 1. Ball skills 2. Ballancing along benches 3. Tables and mats to observe jumping 4. Beanbags and quiots - exploring as they wish 5. Mats to show different ways of travelling. I seem to be having a real mental block on this at the mom…

Hello, currently working in London and am looking to move to Cheshire. Application forms obviously ask what you are being paid - Do I need to say which UPS I'm on as well as scale point and TLR point? Adverts from up north seem very confusing some quoting MPS, CPS and I've only seen one offering a poss TLR point. Why dont all schools quote the same pay scale?Its dawned on me I have been very well paid as part of recruitment and retentn (and obviously because am fab at my job ha ha!) as some Cheshire schools seem to get real value for money out of you for apparently nothing. Poss feeling a bit spoilt. Please help!!!! (you could offer me a very well paid job if your from …

Writing

I have a WHOLE load of questions about writing! * How often do you do writing as one of your focused activities? * Would you aim that, when you 'do' writing, ALL of your children would write? * What do you write? * How much help do you give the children? * What outcomes do you expect? * What can your lower/middle/high ability children currently do? * How long does your writing take? * Do your children feel confident to write as part of their independent play? If so, how many? (a rough percentage will do!) I'll probably think of some more questions but this will do for starters!

Visual Target Setting
by Guest- 5 replies

Hey all. School is revisiting the 'target setting' being displayed in classrooms. I have target boards that are mainly for adults/parents to look at and children are made aware of most of them in child friendly ways. Discussions with fellow Reception teacher saw us discussing her idea of having visual display of pictures in order for children to be able to point to their target (as it is easier when they can't read the target statements). Am wondering whether any of you actually have any bright ideas as to how to make the picture ones, whether you have them already or whether you have any ideas, or whether you have a successful target setting set up in your classro…

My head has asked me to look into producing a baseline/entry assessment for our F1s tht not only can be used to show value added in the FS but that can also predict what we think y2 will achieve in their SATS! hELP! What can we do about all of this I know that my head will not be satisfied with it cant be done or there is no way of knowing! Others must be looking into this as well we need more discussion on this! Thanks for your help

I have finally decided to concentrate on rhyming for my observation next week as my children are finding this difficult. I have found a powerpoint on rhyme I can use but I am stuck for a grp activity. I have done rhyming lotto with them before but this is too difficult for most. I would really appreciate any ideas for small group work. Both myself and the TA will be working with focus groups so I need two ideas really. I would love to hear what others have done when they focussed on this. Please help. Matilda-x-
