This series of books provides ready-made ideas for developing all the essential skills within the Early Learning Goals. Each book takes one particular skill and includes double-page spreads of activity ideas. The left-hand page provides a practical group activity using resources typically found in any nursery setting. This is supported with a photocopiable activity on the right-hand page which consolidates the learning and provides an assessment record of each child's individual achievement. The final page contains a photcopiable Skills Development Chart to place in each child's personal portfolio. COLOURS focuses on developing children's skills across the curriculum through a range of activities to consolidate knowledge of colour and colour mixing. Individual and whole group practical skills are used to develop children's experiences of identifying and recognising colours and to enable them to create repeat patterns, devlop colour mixing skills and identify colours in nature. Activities provide ideas to develop skills across all six areas of learning.
Ideas include working as part of a group to produce decorated crowns in the primary colours, playing a floorgame withnumbered and coloured stepping stones and mixing coloured playdough to produce a green caterpillar. *Nothing like it for this age range *Skills an essential part of early learning *Assessment links *Based on the Early Learning Goals *Photocopiable sheets *Skills development chart
