I still haven't been able to find a definitive answer to this one - as I only have 10 YR children in my class of 30 (YR/1/2), I would love to be able to let one group at a time into the hall from time to time, where we have a lovely climbing frame, benches etc. We have access to the playground for bikes and other wheeled toys, but nothing to climb on, walk along and balance (apart from ropes on the ground and playground markings) and so on.

hi all what kind of things do you send home for numeracy homework - i anything at all? We usually only send home words and sounds. How ever this year parents have been asking for number work too. Our head is reluctant as we think it will be too much so he has asked me to ask on here to see what others do!! Any feedback would be gratefully received Lola

I wonder if someone out there could help me. Im on my first teaching practice and have been asked to do an activity with the children using laminated pictures of a train and carriages with the numbers 1-10 on them (poss up to 15 to extend for more able). I have been trawling the internet for suitable pictures and have been unsucessful. Can anyone help me please? Ive found lots of pics but they are all side views and therefore unsuitable.

On a wet and windy morning I have found myself looking through the pile in the corner! and have discovered a letter form FORUM BUSINESS MEDIA LTD www.forum businessmedia.co.uk. They have put together a support package for the EYFS ( ofsted tips, planning guides, assessment made simple etc) and I am wondering whether any other forum friends have had dealings with this company before. It all sounds pretty good on paper but does cost of just over £170 offer value for money. I really need to be on the ball and not waste our pennies if its not up to standard. We are a pre-school by the way. Any thoughts please?

Hi I am new to the forum, joined a couple of weeks ago and I have already found it very useful. I teach reception and wonder if anyone has any suggestions for a challenge box / area for this age group. Within my class I have a small group of very able children this year and in addition to this a particulalry bright child - I'd would value any ideas / suggestions with both the group and the individual child (who seems to be doing better than many of our Year Ones). Thanks

Hello everyone! Looking forward to half term? I know I am! It's been really tough this half term... was just wondering if anybody knew of the teacher's tv programme that focussed on how a teacher set up her writing area as a car to encourage the boys in there please? Do you know what it was called? Thank you! Tash X
