Marion Posted August 22, 2005 Posted August 22, 2005 Not sure if Im posting this in the right place but know someone will help out if Im wrong. Has anyone used SAQ with Foundation Stage aged children? And if so any suggestions that might help me come September. It will my first term working as a completely integrated Foundation Stage Unit with children aged 3 to 5.
Magenta Posted August 22, 2005 Posted August 22, 2005 Sorry I don't know what saq is!? Starting second year of FS Unit - trying to be more integrated this year!
Guest Posted August 22, 2005 Posted August 22, 2005 Hi, never heard of `saq` only thing near this is the `story sack`ie, all things relevant to a particular story, the book, puppets, musical instruments (if appropriate), basically anything relevant to the story is put into a `sack` so the children can self access and `role play`. Sorry if I`m on the wrong track, but it`s the only thing that sprung to mind.
Marion Posted August 23, 2005 Author Posted August 23, 2005 Sorry should have explained SAQ stands for Speed Agility and Quickness and is a movement program bit along the lines of Brain Gym. Our school went on a course last September but the instructor could offer no advice for younger children.
Guest Posted August 29, 2005 Posted August 29, 2005 Hi i have also been on an introduction to SAQ training but not had the time to follow it up! - and our PE co-ord is trained as an insructor - will pick her brains when we get back to school and see what i can find out! Sarah

Guest Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 I am going into my second year in a foundation unit and had also never heard of SAQ, but I have been introduced to "Jabadao" which is also movement based. Sounds interesting though and will keep looking at this thread for futher information. Thanks.
