Hello Everyone, Hope you are all well and happy. I was wondering if anyone could help me or give me some advice. I have been asked by my local day nursery to attend a parents meeting they are having regarding reading. (I'm a teacher in Mainstream) Lots of the parents at the day nursery are hassling staff about why they aren't being given any reading scheme books (even when they are only three) The nursery have asked me to go and support them in sending the mesage to the parents that the children are not ready for reading at that age and then explain how and when we introduce the children to books. Has anyone out there ever done anything similar?…

Hi, I joined a few months and the first post that I've written so here goes... I have just heard this term 'offered curriculum' used recently and I am becoming slightly worried that I don't know what it means. I think that it is simply the activities that I might set out in my reception class and the purpose of it. Could someone advise me if this is correct? If not, what is it? Thanks

Hi, can anyone help with ideas for my maths table. Every week I put out a range of things which have included number puzzles, food labelled with prices, money, scales with sand and soil, dot to dot, dinosaurs for counting etc. The trouble is the children never seem enthused by these activities. Can anyone share successful activities with me? I'm running out of ideas! Thanks Vicki

Now, obviously I know what the difference between circles and ovals is, but I'm not sure what language to use explaining this to reception! I know there was a post on here recenty about descrbing circles correctly, so I'm fine with that, but how do I talk about ovals?
