Guest Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I'm being observed for an hour and my line manager wants to see a proper nursery 'lesson'. She didn't like my past session where I allowed it to be how a nursery should be, feel like I'm banging my head against a brick wall!! I'm completely stuck on what to do in each area that will be successful. Does anyone have any tried and tested ideas that can link to a story?

Cait Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 has she read the eyfs documents at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I don't think so Cait, I had to say the learning objective for every toy that was out plus was criticised for 3 year olds losing focus from 'capacity' in the sand to building sandcastles. Even when I explained we would need an adult at every activity to achieve that, I didn't get anywhere...just told that the children were 'just playing' - what's wrong with that at nursery age anyway??

Cait Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Hmm, can you get your early years advisor to pop in whilst she's there? It seems that it's she who needs educating about exactly what EYFS is about. Lend her your pack to look through before she comes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beau Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 What a terrible shame for you, but more importantly the children! What sorts of things are your children showing interest in at the moment? I wouldn't advise planning for something which doesn't fit with these interests, however wonderful you may feel it is, as it might just fall flat on it's face if the children aren't engaged with it!
