Description
Working in the early years can be challenging, but to be outstanding in the early years can be even more difficult. This book contains 100 easily to implement ideas to transform your planning, practice and setting from good to outstanding in a flash! Full of tips to promote children's independence, stimulate their creative thinking, develop a sense of calm and maintain a structured environment, this book is an excellent tool for those new to working with this age range as well as more experienced practitioners.
The teaching landscape is constantly changing. The demand for 21st century teaching and learning methods; coupled with government diktat and Ofsted rubber-goalposts will ensure nothing can remain stagnant. Yet, the integrity of an outstanding lesson will always be the same. From the moment you walk into any classroom, you can (with experience) see, feel, smell, hear and occasionally taste a sense of what an outstanding lesson looks like. This book will bottle that formula and help you to recreate it time and time again
