Guest Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 HI I have a few questions Hi how many times for term do you inform parents of their childs development? How do you register children in? how do you set your plans for parents to view?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredbear Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Hi okay the learning journals are on display each term although parents can look at them each day and ask any questions with the child's keyperson. Our children self- register using their names cards on arrival, a staff member then does a formal register tick off and then counts the children attending. We send out a parent/carer learning sheet each half term, giving a loose overview of some areas we maybe exploring and ideas of activities they may like to support their child's learning with at home. We also have a weekly sheet on display on our learning wall. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 We have amember of staff who meets and greets and marks children in, the children then self register using name cards whihc they add to a velcro wall poster. We don't take a register as it takes too long and the children get fidgety so we stopped. Parents receive a learning summary of acheivements and next steps each half term, with a parents evening each term Planning is on display in the playroom but I put a summary of what each key group will be doing each day plus what our overview topic/focus is on the parents noticeboard, I find this is easier for them to decipher than our planning sheet. so for example it might say: Week ending 10/02/12 Focus area -Problem solving, Reasoning and Numeracy - calculating Monday Gemma Green Group will be painting with sponges Debbies Blue Group will be exploring the magnifying glasses etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Hi do you have a template of the summary please I am just updating systems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 We sometime just write on a whiteboard what we're going to cover each week, but this term we have a big calendar on the wall showing what we're doing each day. It says underneath 'Please ask your Key Person if you would like to see the planning for your child', because often the planning outcomes are different for each child. It's a lot simpler this way and saves us a lot of work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
