Synopsis

Fully reflecting the content of the Foundation Stage's Early Learning Goals (DfEE 1999), this text is written for all practitioners working in early years settings. It should also be of interest to undergraduate and postgraduate students pursuing QTS for the three to five age group and to those enrolled on degree and diploma courses in Early Childhood Studies. Jane Drake particularly recognises the importance of play as a context for young children's learning, offering practical ideas for creating a stimulating environment and planning exciting focus activities, all linked to the Early Learning Goals. There is much to interest learning support assistants, volunteer helpers and parents wishing to link the child's experiences at home and beyond with work and play in nursery, playgroup or reception class. All the suggested activities are tried and tested in the classroom. Many are illustrated with exemplar plans defining objectives, organization and resources (examples extend over all six areas of learning in ELGs). The author offers guidance on planning display as part of the curriculum and on observing, assessing and recording and reporting. The book takes full account of the variety of settings in which the Government's expansion of early childhood education will flourish.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Practitioners need help keeping up to speed with the latest developments in the Foundation Stage. Updated in line with current policy and practice, this new edition fully reflects the content of ‘Curriculum guidance for the foundation stage’ (QCA 2000) and recognises the importance of play as a context for young children’s learning. With explicit links to the early learning goals, it includes practical guidance and ideas on:

• how to create stimulating learning environments indoors and out
• planning exciting focus activities and experiences
• how to assess pupils’ achievements
• making and supporting links with home.

Incorporating 'Key Points for Good Practice' within each chapter, this is a key text for all practitioners working in the Foundation Stage. It is also ideal for  students pursuing Qualified Teacher Status in the Early Years and for those enrolled in courses in Early Childhood Studies.
