Having attended a course the week before last conducted by a High Scope worker I was given the idea of having a daily routine done in pictures so the children could understand what was happening next. I have managed to get black and white photos of children so far - mum bringing the child to playgroup, groups of children playing together, a child eating and drinking, children playing with balls and a climbing frame then finally finished with 3 pictures, 1 with children dancing to music another with children doing a painting and the third children sitting around listening to a story.

I have obviously left out one and probably the most important one - tidy up time! I cannot source an appropriate picture and I am looking for suggestions either for a possible source or an alternative - anyone want to help?

try a forum search for visual timetables...

I know I answered someone recently with sites which have suitable pictures

just take a photo and change to black and white ...i always find photos of your own setting the best to start withit makes more sense to the children

Thanks for your replies. We have only opened the playgroup today and just wanted to finish a display off. I know ideally we should have pictures of the children themselves but that will come in time.

How exciting for you - good luck with it all and remember 'Rome wasn't built in a day'!
