Created QR codes for maths games, phonics games and some autumn reads. Great for use of Ipads in the provision. 7 pages.
Also created a page to send home for parents to easily access. 2 pages.
Great activity when learning about fractions. Children use their names to make into a fraction, this can be compared with others and displayed on Maths working wall.
A short document for the class teacher to complete to record and share information about a SEND pupil, or a pupil who may need to join the SEND register as they join their next year group. Great for a robust transition and communication between year groups.
Natural feelings cards with sound buttons. Please note, words that are HFW will have sound buttons underneath as the font doesnât work without the dots/dashes.
An area in the classroom for independent colour mixing. Title to use either âareaâ, âbarâ or âstationâ, whichever youâd prefer! Colour mixing guidance for the primary colours, including black and white. 6 pages, 2 to a page.
This is a copy of the curriculum we use across Nursery and Reception. I am no expert, it is a developing document but it could be a starting point for you.
I have included all areas of learning, including the use of some schemes we follow, including: White Rose Maths, NCETM, Developing Experts, RE Come and See, Ten:Ten RSE, Barefoot Computing.
Vocabulary is highlight in blue - still to be developed. I have included Nursery 1 and Nursery 2 - you will see this is the children who join our Nursery later in January (N1s or rising 3âs)
I have deleted names/information and replaced with a * so please look out for this. All Literacy texts have been chosen with ambitious vocabularty and with purpose - the texts in bold are traditional tales.
This curriculum is relevant to our school and itâs setting - please make it your own and use it as a starting point. If you do choose to use it, please share how you edit and use it! (41 pages)
Please note - I used this document in my OFSTED meeting with the inspector to highlight how it is used across the two units, however they did not ask to look at the document themselves.
I have mentioned this document on my Instagram that I use as Early Years Leader to keep a track of âspotlightâ children in the earliest of years in school.
Please note - I am not saying all schools need to use something like this, I find it really useful for me as EYFS leader to track and monitor these children. Please use and edit the document as you wish. I have added notes in red for you to think about when adding to the document. I share this between all teachers as we are all accountable for the progress children are making.
I use the term âspotlightâ as the bottom 20% of children.
Please note (again) - I did use this document during my OFSTED meeting with the inspector to talk about how we track and support progress for our children- they did not look at the sheet themselves.
If you do choose to use this resource, please share what you do with it!
Fully editable in Canva, follow the link once downloaded. You donât need to pay for an account, most of Canva is free to use and is really easy to use.
3 different designs: Sunflowers, Rainbows and Crayons. All created with two versions of sizes of months.
