symbols for 6 areas?

[ChocolateChip]

Does anyone know if there are set symbols to use for the six areas of learning and developement, and if so where do I find them?

I have seen them used in nurseries, e.g. a globe for kuw, a speech bubble for cll, etc and just wondered if there is a standard key, or if people have made up their own.
( Haven't got down to doing any obs yet, just like faffing about with small details! :laughing: )

Sorry can't help you - are there any images on the EYFS CD that you could use?

Don't know of any set ones, but you could use ones that others use e.g.

Lots of resource web sites, and early years publications use them

Its a good question actually

Like Ellie suggested you could use ideas that other people use

Have a look around at different websites im sure it will inspire you to come up with some ideas yourself

What a good idea! :D

Just a thought though, if you do find any, make sure they are black and white or it'll cost you a fortune in ink!

Thanks for the replies and ideas ladies!
Now I know there aren't specific ones I'll have a good look round for some ideas, thanks for the link Ellie. :thumbsup:

Hi Ellie

I have just had a look at this website and it is fantastic. If I don't use it to buy stuff I will certainly use it for ideas for activities that I can use against the 6 areas of learning and development.
