This is the planning format that I use each week that shows the inputs that I will be teaching and the enhancements that I put in provision.

Geography medium term plan focusing on our school and immediate environment over 5 lessons.

Medium term planning for 7 lessons looking at identifying, classifying and experimenting with different materials.

Activities linked to the fabulous book ‘Ada Twist, Scientist.’ Aimed at a year one class but could easily be adapted for reception and year two.

STEM challenge activity to add a bit of fun to the ‘everyday materials’ topic in year one science.

Week 6 planning for a reception class. This is changed from last years planning due to new maths small steps and a tweaks to weekly themes/activities. We also have a different format for guided reading to last year and some tweaks to foundation lessons too. This pack includes an overview of the week showing when we teach, how we distribute staff, a continuous provision plan, a literacy plan, a maths plan, the challenge page to match our challenge mountain and our guided reading learning. The weekly theme for this week is: Valentines Day/Love!

A brief overview detailing what we will be teaching across the 7 areas of learning in our reception class.

Newly updated in December 2024 A document showing the progression through nursery and reception in the seven areas of learning. Links are also shown to KS1 subjects in relation to understanding the world and EAD to enable subject leaders throughout school to see how their subject is being taught in reception and nursery. Observational checkpoints are included for nursery to help to assess if children are ‘on track’ and ELGs for reception. Please note: at this time, the nursery maths sections are empty for Spring 2, Summer 1 and Summer 2. This is due to White Rose not having released these units as of yet. Once these are released this item with be updated and you will be able to redownload.

The template that we use to assess targets set out for children with EHCPs or whom we are gathering evidence to apply for EHCPs for. Set out across two pages, with details on how to complete each section. These should be created by class teachers at the beginning of each term and reviewed by SENDCOs and parents to ensure everyone has been consulted and is happy with the content for the term ahead.
