JacquieL Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 If you go the the side of the page you will see a blue box. Scroll down the box and click on Resources. You will find lots of things to help with planning there which may be of help to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 ive allready looked there and didnt find much I'm surprised Hannahgurney, I've found the resource section to be extremely useful for formats and ideas. Maybe this article from the article section of the forum would help, it encompasses all aspects of planning from your aims to example formats. Planning in the FOUNDATION STAGE I would however suggest that you revisit the resource section as some members have worked extremely hard and shared their excellent resources relevant to the new EYFS coming in to place in Sept 2008.

Guest Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Another excellent perspective is Sue R's article on Motivational Planning, a Child centered approach. Motivational Planning Peggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 I like your evaluation idea of writing on the bottom of your plan. My medium term plans work termly, so I have an Autumn medium term plan, etc. Within these plans I have each stepping stone-the ones I will cover that term. LOng term is also divided up into terms and has all of my themes and special events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
