Does anyone know a link where I could access the play and communication booklet which tells you the levels of play/communication from Stage 1 to Stage 5? Also cards what supported areas of cp with activity ideas?? I use these with a child with Autism in an old setting but obviously couldn't take them with me and now could really use them again. Hope someone can help

We have got a little who used to come to our setting up until march and she is coming back in september. She has been diagnosed as being deaf and there are a number of other issues as well. I have still not done my SENCo training, our area senco is chasing it up but its been over a year now! I assume I need to get parents permission to put her on a special needs register? Has anyone got a template of a form/letter for parents to sign? I also expect she will need an IEP? Has anyone got a template for one? I have done none of this before and I've left a telephone message and email for the area senco around 2 weeks ago and heard nothing! A friend of mine sugges…

She is on EYA to support her with issues around her behaviour (she can be very 'hands on' with other children, for e.g. today when she wanted a go on the scooter she pushed the other child off). She also has some strange behaviour, she licks everything....puddles, walls, windows and nearly always has a piece of paper in her mouth which she chews! I do know when her mum was in the later stages of pregnancy her waters broke and over a period of 2 weeks she was leaking and they did suggest that she could have developmental problems (which a…

Hi I am currently running a social communication group for a downsyndrome child in my class, he is 4 but working with 22-36 months. I have had SEN inclusion service out to show us how a group session works and provide us with a few games but I would like to add more games so that we are offering more variety to him. Currently the games activities we do in this group are..... 1. Balloon game - child chooses a balloon colour and we then pump it up. They have to say bigger or stop to instruct us to pump or stop. The child then gets to hold the balloon and we count from 5 to 0 and they let it go. 2. Choosing box - in a plastic box are a selection of exciting toys.…
