Maths for early years

Reception Planning Spring 1, 2 Day Overview
The first week of term for us is only 2 days long, so rather than do an entire plan for this, I have just done a brief overview linking to the story ‘Room on the Broom’. This is the first book that we are going to explore using Drawing Club so seemed nice to link it all in together and immerse the children.

Reception End of Spring 2 Assessment
Matching statements in our progression document to assess progress over Spring 2 across all seven areas of learning.

Reception Baseline Assessment
A baseline assessment linked to my progression document.
Following checkpoints and statements from Development Matters, aged 3-4 statements.
Many of these activities can be done through teacher assessment observing children in play but also through CP enhancements and play-based learning. No RBA tablet-style assessing here!

Reception Planning - Autumn 1, Week 1
For this week we have our children part time so our plan is much more simplified.
There are circle time ideas and adult-led activities to support baseline assessments through age-appropriate activities.
There are also a range of continuous provision enhancements to engage children and again, hit some of your baseline assessments through play - none of that RBA iPad assessing here!
Weekly Theme: Starting School
Focus Book: The Colour Monster Goes to School*
I know that there is some controversy regarding using the Colour Monster due to the black colour monster being associated with fear. In this version of the Colour Monster, the black colour monster only appears once. There is no reference to black representing fear but the words spooky and scary are used on the same page as the visual of the black colour monster. In our book we have coloured over him in grey paint. In the activities that we set out in class, we have removed the black monster entirely. We have chosen to continue to use this book as the children engage well with it, it approaches the subject of starting school well and promotes good conversations with our young learners.

Reception Planning - Autumn 1, Week 2
This week our focus is still to settle the children, model the provision and get to know them! So there is NO FORMAL LEARNING planned. Here you will find some ideas for circle time and continuous provision enhancements based on the topic ‘All About Me’.
