Shiny Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 I have continuous provision areas outside and any adult led activities are put on the planning as with indoor ones, they are just written in a different colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salm Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 On my daily equipment plan I list what to have outside or inside if to wet to go out but we don't have a separate full equipment plan, maybe we should but most of our outdoor play is child initiated so Ofsted cant have it all ways or maybe thats the wrong attitude Sal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diesel10 Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Hi We play have an open door policy most of the time, except in extreme weather conditions. The children just go inside for snack, when ready, the snack table is using open for about 30 mins. Children are called if they haven't been. In better weather we do snack and adult -led activities outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlettangel Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 We also have planning for continuous provision for indoors and outdoors, but on the weekly planner we will highlight which activities are going to go on outdoors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blondie Posted March 11, 2009 Author Share Posted March 11, 2009 thanks for the speedy replies - thats what i thought , just read on ofsted site (like you do ) about recent visit and it said " planning does not show what children will learn through their outdoor play" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
