Help For My Ta Assignment.
by Guest- 6 replies
- 1.6k views
Not sure if this is the correct place to put this. My wonderful, life saving teaching assistant is in her final year of her foundation degree (we are in a reception class). She has recently been given an assignment that is based on linking PD with PSED (teaching either through the other!). She has asked me for support, but as this is my first year teaching foundation after 5 years in KS2, she knows more than me anyway (for which I am eternally grateful!). I'm hoping there are some practitioners out there who can offer advice, as I feel I am letting her down a bit. Here's hoping! Annie

Fire!
by Guest- 28 replies

Following on from a TASC wheel discussion about 'Whatever Next' book which we are doing next couple of weeks, the children have mentioned that they would like to make/see fire (as illustrated under the rocket in the book). I would love to build a fire with the kids but know that my head (being secondary trained and very KS2 orientated) will have a blue fit if I even mention the idea. Anyone been brave enough to try this, and how did you go about it? How can I convince my head it's a good idea? I have visions of drawing with charcoal afterwards....

Hi, I have been searching for small, safe wooden logs for small world activities for ages, not getting very far, perhaps if i lived in the country I might have more luck, but I don't, inner city london doesn't seem to have many obvious log sources!!!! I have tried calling tree surgeons, gardeners, garden centres, petrol stations, and am running out ideas, do you have logs for small world play eg 5 little speckled frogs, if so, anyone got any ideas about where to get them from? Cheers bb

Does anybody out there have any ideas for creating play trays? I've heard loads about them, bought some trays, and then found myself void of ideas (I think I used up my creativity over Christmas). All suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

We have a new Geog and hist co-ordinator in our school and they want us, in reception, to 1 week do a geog focus, the next week a hist focus and the week after a science focus. I have explained that we dont really work like that as we do what fits with our topic at the time. I explained that throughout the year we make sure that each ELG is visited equally. How do others approach KUOW?
