Guest Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Hi there, I am a CC teacher and some of the childminders I have been working with have recently been bringing lots of different published resource books- i.e. photocopiable blank planning formats- to our meetings and asking me which is the best one to buy. I feel that the best one is a format that works for you and is meaningful and manageable, but some CM's seem to want me to tell them to buy one or the other. Do any CM's out there have a planning version that has been recommended to them or is popular by consensus? I'd be really grateful if you could let me know. The majority of my CM's are going with my suggested format, but there are just one or two who I think would feel happier with something published to show OFSTED. Thanks for any replies.

Guest Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Hi Mozart, I bought the NCMA book and have never used it - doesn't suit my "style" at all!! Most of what I use has been cribbed or adapted from this site - point them in this direction, perhaps!? Nona Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Thanks for your reply- that's what I think is the problem with "prescribed" books- they don't suit everyone!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 I agree - you just have to experiment, I have tried a few of the proforma's on the EYFS CD rom and most have thought in the end - I can't maintain this, or, I never fill that part of the box in, so you just adapt it or make your own. It' s trial and error for me mainly. But, I thi nk the issue here is that people want to get it right, so sometimes look for something ready made Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
