New Girl

Hello to everyone, I'm new to the forum and have been debating whether to subscribe. Ive just begun a stint in nursery covering the teacher for the subject of 'designing and making' which needs to be linked to Autumn or the topic of 'golden days'. She hasn't given me a great deal of guidance and I really want to make a go of something fun. Any ideas??

Hello people! I started my teaching practice today (very exciting!) and they have asked me if I would like to do this years calendar. Obviously it cant be on a Christmas theme as it goes through the whole year so I need some inspiration from the experinced lot! Any ideas???

Any New Bear/toy Activity Ideas

Hi I am on teaching practice in a reception class and I'm struggling to find new and exciting ideas for the next few weeks. the topic is toys. I have sorting (old and New) teddy is going home with children overnight and we have a whole week of teddy bears picnic (invites, post office trip, food to make) I would love some really good focus activities that are a little different. Actually I'm worried about how to fill the days. Does everything have to be topic based? My class teacher is fab with thirty years experience, I feel a bit of a nuisance asking for guidance. Will be greatfull for any sugestions Julie.s

Starting a new topic on trains, but am having real difficulty find good books that include the key language, for example: platform, ticket office, clock, etc. Also I need some more ideas to make this topic cross curricular, for example writing opportunities. Any ideas??

Hello! As part of our Houses and Homes topic I thought I could introduce rhyming by looking at the nursery rhymes 'There was a crooked man' and the 'Old woman who lived in a shoe'. Unfortunately, I can't think of any nice activities to accompany this. Has anyone any interesting ideas? Thanks

Hi all, It's been suggested to me that I might like to write up a topic or two for a proposed new resource area on the site, offering Topic guidance. Thus I am currently working on the theme 'Growing'. What I'd like from anyone who feels so inclined is a bit of input in terms of activities, ideas, books etc that have been useful or worked particularly well for them in the past for inclusion. You don't need to go into too much detail unless you feel it really essential, just a few pointers would do. You can either post here or PM me, I'm easy. I'm also kicking some ideas around for a Seasons topic, so you could also bear that in mind? Cheers, Sue

Dear All, If any of you interested and would like ideas for Imaginative role play in a flower shop then I have an article coming out in the EYE magazine next week and it is an eight page pull-out project supplement on Imaginative role play. I have zoomed in on role play in a flower shop as this was an excellent project I undertook at my school and the children loved every minute of it! It is not just about setting up the role play corner it also links into all areas of the curriculum and gives other activity ideas to carry out alongside the project. Happy reading Best wishes Sharon

Looking for a simple poem on Autumn to use next week. I have looked in some poetry books at home but they are too difficult.
