Does anyone have a good story or idea for making up a story to do to a small group of children age 3-5 years old at a party! I have all the large puppets and use them regulary at school with the children but it is on schoo,lbased ideas - Does anyone have any general ideas on entertaining children.

Did anyone else realise that it is Early Years Week on Teacher's TV this week??? I don't normally watch it to be honest as it's normally about children older than I work with but last night, I watched an interesting programme about the balance of Child Initiated and Adult Led activities which was really good. Even though it was aimed at Reception teachers, it gave me more of an insight into this area.

A couple of years ago we had some pencil crayons from Spectrum Education. They had really soft leads so that even the lightest touch left a mark. Great for beginner mark makers.

As an NQT beginning a career in September teaching Reception, I am filled with excitment and the human condition of doubts and questions raised from being 'green'!

I'm really excited about meeting the children and terrified bout having the sufficient knowledge and experience to answer questions confidently! The school and area is new to me. There are also 2 review meetings for children with SEN that ha…
