mps09 Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 If you do a forum search on 'all about me' I'm sure you'll find a few examples... but here is ours. Hope it helps! all_about_me.doc
Guest Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 We use an adapted version of Cait's unique child booklet. I'm sure it'll be in the resource library or else do a forum search and see what comes up!
Susan Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 You would be better to have some sort of parental interview, either a home visit or in the setting if at all possible.
Guest Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 Hi there This is what we use when a child starts with us but you could adapt it to your own needs, hope its useful. Tania entry_record_part_3.pdf entry_record_part_3.pdf
dottyp Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 I recently took a leaflet posted on the FSF by some kind person and it seems to be working well in our setting so far. Hope it's of use to you. dottyp ALL_ABOUT_ME_BOOK_FOR_PARENTS_TO_COMPLETE.doc
Bigsue Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 All these posts are useful thanks This was one of the things Ofsted recently advised we could do did say we had to just said it would be helpful
Cait Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 I recently took a leaflet posted on the FSF by some kind person and it seems to be working wellin our setting so far. Hope it's of use to you. dottyp Yes, that's mine. Glad it's some use - our parents all like it and it forms a good starting point for info
Guest Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 Thanks for these ideas. We have recently had a transition form introduced by our LA which is great for children who have had experience in another setting, but we currently don't have anything for children who have come from home so these are a great help as induction is one area I'm looking at this year.
