PROVISION IN MARAZION
Moving from EYFS to Year One may seem daunting, but we have created an environment where children have a tidy and engaging environment where they can learn through play. Please view our picture gallery below.
In Marazion, we aim to provide a classroom that has continuous and enhanced provision.
Our Continuous Provision:
In Marazion, the children can access all our resources in the classroom. We have the following areas in place:
- Phonics area (drawers full of phonics resources, sound cards, etc.)
- Maths area (access to all maths equipment)
- Reading area (reading pod and book stand)
- Writing area (access to pens, pencils, whiteboards, writing tablets, etc, handwriting activities)
- Fine motor skills area (threading activities, buzzer games, tweezer games)
- Creative area (access to glue, scissors, plain and coloured paper, playdough, colour mixing paint area)
- Computing (free access to laptops, the class iPad to play games and scan QR codes)
▪️The resources within these areas remain in place all term/year.
Our Enhanced Provision:
- Themed tuff trays
- Book vote (each child has a named token, and they can vote on which book they want to hear at the end of the day. The book with the most votes wins.
- A role-play area (the theme changes half-termly)
- Challenges in the reading, writing, maths and phonics areas for the children to complete
▪️The enhanced provision areas are changed regularly.
Our Outdoor Environment:
Just off the back of our classroom, we have a small outdoor area, which includes a shed. I am due to inherit the shed and plan to transform it into another usable space for the children.
