hali Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 i downloaded from here and adapted it slightly, then sent home a covering letter and an example of one filled in - then sent them home with files at the end of the term. Have to say most came back blank so re sent them home had 47/50 back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 We have used scrap books for ours. We have stuck in photos, stickers with observations, longer observation sheets, assessments such as cutting, name writing etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 We have used scrap books for ours. We have stuck in photos, stickers with observations, longer observation sheets, assessments such as cutting, name writing etc. We also use scrap books but call them celebration books - do you also use a tracker sheet to tarck each child through the development matters or do you use the scarpbook/learning journey for this purpose too - any advice/suggestions will be gratefully recieved!

newviewnursery Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Hi, We also struggled to get used to the new system. We met with other local group and decided the best way forward was to type out the stages and aspects so that we can write post it notes and keep track of where we are. We are still trialling the pilot scheme but it has reassured the staff - who were confident with the old system. But it does seem to save time, and it's lovely to have photo's, pictures, pieces of artwork and observations all kept together . We think it's a shame that all this will go on to school - we feel that a summary sheet would be fine for school and all the precious work and photo's could go to the parents.

Louloos Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 The Statutory Framework for the EYFS does not state that you have to send the lovely 'scrap book' or whatever you call it to the school - it just states about reporting at the end of the EYFS through the profile and engage in ongoing dialogue with parents throughout. I would therefore be inclined to send that home and then report on each area of learning and send that report to school! Check with your local authority Early Years Advisory team as they may have some other suggestions. Any other ideas from anyone?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 The pre-school that most of my YR children attended passed all children's 'stuff' (for want of a better word!) to me, which I then sent on to parents once I had seen it. The nursery gave stuff to parents, which some remembered from New Parents' meeting that I had asked to see and so gave to me at start of term to look at - others I have had to chase. Either way, the parents actually keep it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
