I am a newly registered childminder and am really trying to get myself sorted, but am just getting myself in a bit of a muddle regarding the LJ's.
I have 2 children after school (reception) and have been taking photos and notes of the activties and things we have done, and kept examples of their 'work' that they have done with me, but now i really need to start putting it all into some sort of order!!!
Weirdly, it seems the sticking it in bit is where i am having problems!!!
The "starting points" that people keep mentioning - can someone explain this more clearly to me please?
Also i was then going to do the following....
*add photos of them and descriptions of what they were doing
*the on coloured post its add where some of the activities link to the EYFS
*then also add "wow" statements at random points when they do something well
*examples of their work
*observations every 4/6 weeks of a particular activity including what they have done, adult help, links to eyfs and next steps
Should i be doing anything else? Should i be including next steps more often??
I am getting in a right muddle, so would appreciate any help or advice so I can be the best childminder I can be :D
