Newly updated in April 2025. A document showing the progression through nursery and reception in the seven areas of learning. Links are also shown to KS1 subjects in relation to understanding the world and EAD to enable subject leaders throughout school to see how their subject is being taught in reception and nursery. Observational checkpoints are included for nursery to help to assess if children are ‘on track’ and ELGs for reception.

Planning for our second week together, 2 half days and the remaining all children in all day. PSED focus and not on full timetable. No CP enhancements.

An overview to our first 3 days as a new cohort on a part-time timetable. Quick circle times, overview of where staff will be. No CP enhancements.

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.
