In line with the new Development Matters and EYFS 2020, I have created a reading record that shows the different literacy; reading statements and ELG’s.

Now we’re entering the summer term, we’re hosting stay and play transition afternoons for our new cohort. On the last of these afternoons, I will hand out these activity booklets for children to use over the summer holiday. The activity booklet aims to support each 7 areas of the EYFS, to support a smooth transition to reception. Additionally there are some pointers as to how adults can support their children transition to school.

Now we’re entering the summer term, we are hosting a sequence of stay and play transition afternoons. During the last afternoon I will give each child a summer activity booklet. The booklet has activities to support each 7 areas of the Early Years reformed Framework and aims to support a smooth transition to school expectations.

I have created these word triangles to go on each table in my class. The HFW’s I print onto green card and Tricky words on to red. Once printed, simply cut them out and stick. The triangles are in alphabetical order so it can support children’s writing, they can identify the initial sound of the HFW or tricky word and find it on the triangle. A4 can be big, shrinking them to A5 can save space both in the classroom and on the table.
