    Default Planning

    I was just wondering when you do your weekly planning do you repeat some activities over the course of the week. I have a lot of different mindees on different days so would it be ok to do the same activity for say 2 days of the week with different mindees or should i not be repeating myself.
    Hope you understand this course i am not sure that i do on reading it back.

    I know what you mean I think.

    So on Tuesday you have Child A and B and on Thursday child C and D then no problem repeat the activities.

    Even if on Tuesday you have Child A and B and on Thursday child A, C and D you could do it and Child A could do something else but to be honest they probably wouldn't mind doin it again.

    I do exactly that

    only one of my mindees comes every day but she never minds doing things again.

    Trouble is sometimes I forget who has done what

    I have to write everything down

    I have a chart on which I put the activities I am planning so split into 4 sections a day before school, mornining, afternoon, after school. Along hte bottom I write the activities for the week and highlight in a different colour, then on the chart I write in the childrens name for the day they are going to do that activity and highlight with the colour of hte activity

    hope this makes sense

    Thanks for the replys.

    Kate i think i understand what you mean, I dont suppose i can be cheeky and ask to have a look at your chart. I have made 2 different ones at the moment and can not decide which will be best to use. I am in need of inspiration.
