Home learning ideas:
The Early Years Foundation Stage is based around four Key Themes, three Prime areas and Four Specific Areas of Learning.
The themes are:
-
A Unique Child - Every child is a competent learner from birth who can be resilient, capable, confident and self-assured.
-
Positive Relationships - Children learn to be strong and independent from a base of loving and secure relationships with parents and/or a key person.
-
Enabling Environments - The environment plays a key role in supporting and extending children's development and learning.
-
Learning and Development - Children develop and learn in different ways and at different rates and all areas of Learning and Development are equally important and inter-connected.
The three prime areas are:
-
Personal Social and Emotional Development
-
Communication and Language
-
Physical Development
The four specific areas are:
-
Literacy
-
Mathematics
-
Understanding the world
-
Expressive arts and design
