Tracking System

Our LEA advisor wants us to put a 'Tracking System' in place so that we can track the areas that the chn are using during their free choice time and ensure that they are accessing all areas. I've heard of a variety of systems-eg putting photo/name card in a box/on chart and have tried this with one area (small world) but found that all I was doing was saying to those chn at the end of the week-'such and such you haven't played in the small world yet'. I scrapped it coz I didn't see the point. One opinion is that it's WHAT they are learning not WHERE they are learning it-eg if a child rarely visits the writing area but is always writing labels in the construction area t…

Hi everybody, I haven't really introduced myself properly yet. My name is Emma and I'm an NQT working in a Reception class. The forum is fab and I've already picked up loads of great ideas - I've also got hold of a great numberline which was my last request on here! ..... Now I need some help with ideas for next half terms planning. (sorry I know we all need to get Christmas out of the way first) It's just i'm worrying because I have no books/resources which I can partially rely on for next half terms themes. The only long term plan I'm given to work from is headings - next terms being 'winter weather' and 'fairy tales'. I have managed with the topics so far as the pre…

Hi, I'm doing the Early Years Foundation Degree and need to do a med. term plan for science. I've decided to do light and dark but I don't know how to get all of the criteria in to one planning sheet. It needs to include, topic, group, differentiation, aims, objectives, key vocabulary, length of session, resources, progression and number of children and show activities! I'm having a nightmare trying to format a plan. Any shortcuts anyone?

hi everyone I know there have been several discussions about outdoor play provision - but any specific advice to my current dilemma would be very welcome! We now have a fairly good sized outdoor area for our 2 Reception classes. Direct access to it is from one classroom only, the two classrooms are however adjoining. So far both classes have been going out altogether for about 30 minutes in the morning and 20 in the afternoon as a kind of extended playtime/ outdoor play session. We have been providing a range of equipment but have not yet been planning specifically for this time. The area is used by parents for collecting and dropping off children so we are lim…
