smile.gif Hi,
We have all of the usual areas in the Nursery. I would like to put up a description of what the children to do in each area and why, so that parents and visitors to the Nursery can see the purpose each area. For example, in our studio area we can draw, paint and make our own models..... We do have continuous provision plans for each area, but we would like descriptions as well. I was hoping that someone would have something similar that they can share.
Thanks. smile.gif

We put up photographs of the children, with simple captions, engaged in the various activities in each area rather than putting up descriptions. This helps the children as well as parents who have English as an additional language.

We do have annotated photos in each area, but we would really like a description as well. It would be great to know if anyone else does this.
