I promise this will be my last new topic today!!

I have found a really good website for illustrations People who help us. Its www.itscotland.org.uk/earlyyears/resources/illustrations/people/index.asp. I used them in an interactive display where each character had a specific tool. The children then had to stick the appropriate tool to the character. It worked very well last year, so Im doing it again.

One question: Does anybody have any ideas on how to do a display that either represents what the children want to be when they grow up OR what they have learnt about different jobs.

Hi Hannah, I couldn't find the illustrations from the link, only another directory, any clues how to find it?

Play, while it cannot change the external realities of children’s lives, can be a vehicle for children to explore and enjoy their differences and similarities and to create, even for a brief time, a more just world where everyone is an equal and valued participant.

I followed a link from the above site and found this:

Take a look, its brilliant. I am thinking using these for a display about hands, which will link in with 'good hands and bad hands' and behaviour........
Thanks for posting!

Thanks Marion, where do you get the time to find all these sites?
and thanks LJW, but what I want to know is why have I put these sites in my favourites list when my preschool is now 'officially' closed? :o :( - well I am decluttering my house, but to let go of all my computor resources is just too hard. :lol:

Thank you ladies. The Scottish site is really useful. Any more ideas on how to do a Jobs display. I was going to get the children to paint a picture of what they want to be-copying a picture. Each painting would then have a photo of them next to it and a speech bubble saying why they want to have that job. Any thoughts?
