Programming with the EYLF

Here is my October programme for the 2-3 room. At the moment I am using the Under The Sea Programme Theme Display. I think it looks great and I’ve had lots of parents comments so far, which is great.

  

I use a 12 symbol system, which is also working really well. I had each of my symbols made into a stamp from a person on Ebay, which makes it so easy to link my programming with the EYLF.

What it involves is a template to correspond to each symbol. If you have parent input you fill in a ‘Family Input’ form. If you do an observation of a child you fill out a ‘Child Observation’ form. Then those experiences go onto the programme with the symbol next to it.

When someone asks why a certain experience is there you can check the symbol and immediately explain why it is there and show the documentation for it.

I’ll give you an example…

A parent has come in and was talking to you about how their child is really interested in traffic lights. She points to them whenever they are in the car.

Later, when you have some quiet time you can fill in the ‘Family Input’ form briefly detailing the conversation you had with the parent. Then you offer some future experiences that could extend on this child’s interest. You can make these up, ask the parent if they have any suggestions, or even ask the child.

For this example you have decided to paint templates of traffic lights using red, yellow and green paint. You write this up on your programme under the corresponding Learning Outcome and next to a Family Input symbol.

When you have done this experience you can evaluate it using the ‘Evaluation’ form. This also has a place for any future experiences.

In my example the experience went really well, lots of the children showed interest in the traffic lights, promoting discussions around the painting table about what you do at a traffic light. You could have your future experience as introducing road signs to the bike track.

Now you can write that up on your programme next to an Outdoor Experience symbol.

See how your programme may never stop. One thing can lead to another and another. Using the symbols and the template forms ensures that you have adequate documentation on how you are linking your programme to the children, families, staff, and EYLF.
