Your Activities Collection

[BenTapestrySupport]

 

As part of the Activities feature on Tapestry, the "Our Activities Collection" area is where you can add your own Activities. 

To access this, log in to your Tapestry account via a browser and select the "Activities" option (1) in the menu at the top. You will then need to select "Our Activities Collection" from the tabs (2). This page also shows whether an activity here has been published for staff, for staff and relatives, or whether it is still in draft format. (3)

 

 

If you are looking for a specific category for your activity, you can choose from the 'Category' section (4). This will give you the option to search for "All", "Early Years Foundation Stage", "Special Educational Needs", "Key Stage 1" or "Key Stage 2". 

Depending on the Category chosen, you will then be given a few other options.

• For Early Years Foundation Stage, you can first choose the EYFS Area from "Any", "Personal, Social and Emotional Development", "Communication and Language" or "Physical Development". You will then be given the choice of the following Stage - "Any", "Birth to 3", "Preschool" or "Reception". 
• For Special Educational Needs, you can choose a SEND Subject from "Any", "Physical Development", "Personal, Social and Emotional Development", "Cognition" or "Communication". 
• For Key Stage 1, you can first choose the Key Stage 1 Subject from "Any", "Maths" or "English". You will then be given the choice of the following Year Group - "Any", "Year 1" or "Year 2".
• For Key Stage 2, you can first choose the Key Stage 2 Subject from "Any", "Maths" or "English". You will then be given the choice of the following Year Group - "Any", "Year 3", "Year 4", "Year 5" or "Year 6".

 

 

To view an existing Activity, select it and it will take you to the Activities page. From here, you can view any attached media (1), documents (2), and read the notes (3) that accompany the Activity. 

The Categories (4) indicate the area that Activity has been tagged in and also relates to the Category chosen previously. 

 

 

The "Links to and from this activity in Our Activities Collection" (5) shows any Activities that have been planned from this Activity idea, helping you keep track of those children who have had it set previously. We cover these "Planned Activities" in more detail here. 

If another user (staff or relative if shared with them also) has a question about the Activity, then they can ask it in the "Questions and Discussion Points" section (6). Like other discussion and comment areas in Tapestry, these comments are visible to all other users of Tapestry who can see the Activity. 

The "Actions" (7) allows you to create a "Planned Activity" for the children to access it. The option to "Use this in a Planned Activity" (8) does the same thing. 

If you would like to add your own Activity to this section, please take a look at this tutorial here.
