https://sparklingpreschool.wordpress.com/2015/01/06/evolution-of-an-activity/comment-page-1
Sparkling Pre-School and Child Care. Evolution of an activity. January 6, 2015. January 19, 2015. Activities are brilliant if you let them evolve. Starting an activity tempts the children in. The table is simple, we have flour and chocolate powder creatively displayed as a smiley face. It it doesn’t stay like that for long. Curious fingers can’t help but make marks and it’s not to long before it looks like this. Now, what shall we do next? Posted in Activity journal. Some activities just have the lot!

https://sparklingpreschool.wordpress.com/2015/07/07/finkcards
Sparkling Pre-School and Child Care. Confident Talkers Conversation Cards. July 7, 2015. November 17, 2015. Now I’ve done this before, but somehow this time, I couldn’t get my preparation quite together. I wrote a few notes, changed them round, and I was feeling restless about the presentation. Then I had a light bulb moment, and decided the way to show and talk about the importance of play…was to play! What do I consider one of the most important points? 8221; (Not my pre-school of course! That brought ...

Sparkling Pre-School and Child Care. To be (levelling) or not to be (levelling)? July 28, 2015. July 28, 2015. I innocently replied to a tweet recently on levelling continuous provision.
