Early Years Continuous Provision - Christmas

Early Years Continuous Provision - Christmas
Suitable for Early Years or Year 1

This scheme of work has been planned to encourage the children to think about both the secular and the spiritual meaning of Christmas. Feel free to lean more towards either way if appropriate.

Part 1 – Each day includes one group or whole class activity that teaches children about the meaning of Christmas, as well as things we associate with Christmas. This section would be perfect for an afternoon session. Each day covers a different book linked to Christmas, these include:

• The Crayons’ Christmas by Drew Daywalt and Oliver Jeffers.
• The Nativity Story by various authors
• Stick Man by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler
• Dream Snow by Eric Carle
• A Chubby Little Snowman by Anonymous

Part 2 - Part 2 includes a range of suggested continuous provision activities that you may want to put out for the children to access throughout the week. There is a number of activities listed, all engaging and fun. All of the continuous provision planning has links to the NEW EYFS 2021 Development Matters, specifically the ‘Children in reception will be learning to…’ section.

This is detailed planning (3194 words).
