Guest Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Hi everyone, I am just about to offer a free flow between indoors and outdoors as my TA has been off ill since beofre Easter and is just about to come back -so have been short staffed!!! No matter where I work, I am always stuck with an ill TA!!! Anyway, am I right in thinking that free flow works by anytime that a child is not completing a focus job with an adult they can choose to do anything they want in or out of the classroom? and if so, is it just the equipment outide that would be used in PDR? Look forward to hearing how you all do it. Just so you know, we have 45 year R children, 2 teachers, 2 TA's and a faily small contained outside area. Thanks XXX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyMaz Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 I can't help you punto because I'm in pre-school and so we do things very differently, but I was wondering if you could tell me what PDR means? Maz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Hi Maz PDR stands for Plan DO Review, which fundamentally, is child initiated play. XXX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upsy Daisy Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 I knew that! Of course you did Maz. Just like me! So why would you only do the PDR with the outside resources? Just curious, not being helpful, sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Sorry - PDR is inside and out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyMaz Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Of course you did Maz. Just like me! I really did: campbells is High/Scope trained and is always banging on... I mean raving about it! Maz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upsy Daisy Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 I really did: campbells is High/Scope trained and is always banging on... I mean raving about it! Ok, point conceded. I should have concentrated more last term. I do like what I've heard about it as it seems to fit closely with my ethos. Must find out some more when I have time. Perhaps I should go and do that now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
