There are lots of those on the bromley site, if that helps.

This is very easy to knock up - it's just taken me 2 minutes.

Draw a table in Word - 3 across by 4 down.

Merge the boxes in the middle for the title. If you wanted you could merge the boxes on the vertical and keep a smaller box for the title in the middle.

As you type the boxes will grow or you can make them bigger very easily using the return key.

Save one as your template and copy and paste it into a new page to use.

It will work equally well landscape or portrait - you would just need to play with the layout of the boxes in the table.

Hth :D

I like all the ones given, especially the Bromley one (but then I would say that as I live in Bromey!!)

Do you fill these in for every activity you do or every theme?

And do you do this as a general over view as it were and then still do the Individual Weekly planning for children?

And then where do you keep this - in one big planning folder?

[sarah707]

I use them when I'm not sure that an activity is covering all areas of learning and development... or when I need to focus myself because there's a festival or celebration coming up and I need to research some new information...

They are dotted about through my filing along with other planning and used time after time, scribbled over, re-written sometimes, added to, deleted from if things really did not work...

I suppose I use them as working documents :D

Thank you Sarah!!
