Integrating Bloom’s Taxonomy higher-order questions into EYFS classroom areas elevates early learning experiences by fostering critical thinking and deeper understanding. By moving beyond basic recall, these questions encourage young children to analyse, evaluate, and create, making their play and exploration more meaningful.
These higher order thinking questions can be printed and displayed in each area of a classroom for young learners. They not only help you to extend learning in the moment through questions, but also support all adults in the room to do the same.
The question posters come in four different colour schemes and you will receive all of them with your purchase. These colours include black and white, pastel, neutral and brights.
The question posters include:
Reading
Writing/Mark-Making
Maths
Sand
Water/Messy Play
Computing/ICT
Malleable/Fine Motor
Creative
Junk Modelling
Small-World
Role-Play
Construction
Investigation
These quick printables will elevate the learning and interactions in your classroom.

This Assessment Guide was developed as a result of inconsistent assessment judgements and ineffective assessments. It has been in place 1 year at my current school and has drastically improved the consistency and accuracy of assessment across our EYFS Department.

Objectives for each curriculum area of the EYFS Curriculum.
Examples of how children may demonstrate objectives.
Guidance of what constitutes children emerging, developing or meeting expectation within an age-band.
Notes:
The guide begins at 16-26 Months to ELG.
Some objectives have been added that our department felt should be included in the rounded assessment of a child. These are written in red so you can choose to disregard them if you wish to.
This guide is not editable. Once purchased, if you would like an editable version, please let me know.

This poster has been used from EYFS to Year 4 as a way to raise attainment and encourage self-assessment and it has proven to be very effective. It has been particularly effective in EYFS.
The poster is printed and displayed in the classroom and used each time children participate in writing activities to help them understand the features of their writing. When completing independent writing, these images are stuck into children’s books to remind them of their aims and also to self-assess their work at the end. We use Tickled Pink and Green for Growth but any system will work. Children then get a stick to match each target they have achieved.
This pack includes
A complete writing poster
A simplified writing poster for younger children/less able.
Ready to print stickers for each target
Editable WALT and WILF with images to stick in children’s books
If you would like the editable version of the poster, let me know once purchased and I can send it to you.
This editable sticker chart and communication book is an easy way to communicate with parents and make children accountable for their choices. Children get a sticker each time they achieve their target or the space remains blank if they don’t. Parents then review the book with children at home and colour the green, amber or red face depending on the day which reinforces the choices at home and provides consistency. There is also a space for comments.
