Finding Resources To Back Up Free Flow In Y2


Guest

Recommended Posts

In September I start a new job teaching Y2. I want to continue free flow teaching as in FS. I would like to find some research/ideas/publications on this way of working for upper KS1.

 

Does anyone have any links or books they can recommend?

ahh excellent, thanks!

 

So what are your plans with Y2? Ive taught ks1 for 8 years and this year FS.I love the way I have worked and really want to carry on with it.

 

My main area of confusion is how I might allow the children to be child initiated and whether it would be frowned upon.

 

Im considering the same set us as i currently have - different areas in the class (all FS areas including listening centre, construction, creative, role play, music, maths, writing table, reading corner, self selectable craft/DT materials etc)

 

Lessons would begin with Whole class teaching- introducing/practising/refining the skill

 

then

 

I would take groups for focused work

LSA may take groups linked to the main session or be involved in child initiated or be observing.

 

children would have free reign and i would give them a job or jobs to do over the course of the morning and new ones in the afternoon.

 

My only problem with this is that i assume that i wont always get the focused groups done before play time - so ill have to continue after break. I would do a new main session (say i started with literacy and the focused groups were literacy based, after break i would do numeracy.)

 

This means I wouldnt always be doing focused maths everyday or literacy.

 

There would be a session everyday but not a 'hour' as it used to be.

 

Any thoughts?
