Next year we have been asked to choose a different artist for each year group. These artists will be used for a Art Week where we will look at the artists life and look at their work and use as inspiration for our own art work. Another teacher beat me to Van Gogh and the other artists that were mentioned don't exactly fill me with inspiration. I've eventually opted for Jackson Pollock - just because some of his works of art look suitable large scale and messy and therefore achieveable - though most of it looks pretty naff to me (sorry Pollock ).

I have recently set up a listening area in my classroom and need to find CD's or tapes with books. I have looked through the educational catalogues at school but cant seem to find any.

Group Names

Well it was end of term for us today - can't wait to have a lie in without worrying about what I haven't done! Anyway, already thinking of Reception group names and have searched the forum for ideas. I really like the book title theme and people have suggested: The Hungry Caterpillars The Elmers The Gruffalos I am struggling for a 4th - it was suggested on previous posts 'The Wild Things' but I don't fancy that one. Any suggestions on what I could use? Have looked through my book collection but can't come up with one. I am going to go and put my feet up and enjoy my tonne of chocs!
