EYFS tracker

EYFS tracker

(1)
Apologies if already uploaded - I couldn't find it. This is my LA's current tracker system to cover the whole of the EYFS in its current state. The only bit missing is scale points 9 on the profile. This will be changed once the LA study the new Development Matters and get the new ELG format for the 2013 profile.

The stories are for: Who is it?, Six in a bed, and Fun at the beach. I have also attached some other original extended stories, written by Roderick Hunt, that I have typed out, ready for a Shared Reading session.
