Foundation Stage

What is the Early Years Foundation Stage?

The Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum is based on the recognition that children learn best

through play and active learning.

The 7 areas of learning

• Communication and language development- listening and attention, understanding and speaking.

• Physical development- moving and handling and health and self care.

• Personal, social and emotional development-self confidence and self awareness, managing feelings and behaviour, and making relationships.

• Literacy development-reading and writing.

• Mathematics- number and shape, space and measure.

• Understanding the world- the world, people and communities and technology.

• Expressive arts and design- being imaginative and exploring and using media and materials.

In our classroom we have:

• A writing area• A small world area• A construction area• A reading area• Sand and water• A creative and malleable area• A listening area • A self accessed snack table • Our own outdoor area
