Guest Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 Planned_activity_BT_.docPlanned_activity_FS.docPlanned_activity_weekly.docHI Now if you had seen our planning we have been doing you would have laughed, it was all colour co-ordinated (looked more like a rainbow), told us nothing of the children's interests, did not allow for free choice on the part of the children and took ages to fill out. so i think i have managed to simplify it.... after reading through the FS guidance i now know that you don't have to do a medium term plan unless you wish to... so our medium term plan has now taken on the format of a brainstorm for craft/activity ideas.... (not attatched) and then our toy plan has changed slightly to now include a coloum for children's choices (previously we had not had that coloum).... this sheet will be used in all rooms. we then have an activity plan sheet, one for FS one for BT3 pretty self explanatory, i want staff to do one planned activity a day (we are open from 7:30- 6) so plenty of time to do it in. so attatched are my sheets, do they look okay? Dawn
Guest Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 Thanks for sharing your planning sheets they are fab will deffo be using them! love kat x
Andreamay Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 hi dawn, they look great but I thought about putting btt3 on the fs sheet to show we plan together as some sessions our mixed ages.However dont know how yet so might have to resort to something similiar to yours -thank you so much for sharing
Sue R Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 We also plan for a mixed age group - 2.6 +- we annotate FS planning sheets with appropriate BTTM aspect/component. Sue
Guest Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 ahh thanks for positive feeback...showed them to our early years advisor today and she said that we definatly should pilot them in the nursery and see how we go with them. Just need to run them past the directors (which could be hard as she was the one that initiated the plans we use now)... i think i may come up against some resistance but hope that the fact that i have the okay from the early years advisor may sway the director some.... wish me luck Dawn
Guest Posted July 26, 2006 Posted July 26, 2006 Oh im so happy, the director said we can pilot our planning, how fab is that, no more colour coding, oh i can't wait Dawn
Guest Posted July 26, 2006 Posted July 26, 2006 It's sounds like you are making some positive changes Dawn. Good on you!
