I am getting to grips with all the planning, observations, documenting side of things. Originally what I had planned was to do what we have to do for under 5's (if I'm understanding it right!) but for under 8's too. My thinking behind this was that if anything further backs up my inclusion policy and wanted to treat them all the same.
However, I've only been planning for a short time and I'm starting to realise that I am creating myself work haha!
So, does this sound ok to you? Under 5's long/med term planning supported by weekly plans (give to parents?) obs, eval, doc, plan etc building a book of magic moments or whatever.
Then for my under 8's, give a weekly plan to parent (so not doing the whole long/med planning thing) obs, eval, doc, plan etc as above to build learning journey. I don't think I have to do this but I still kind of want to. So basically, a diluted version of what I'll do for under 5's.
Not sure I'm talking sense now. Feel kind of lost. Possibly anxiety of first client :blush:
