"An excellent resource for nurseries, Reception classes and childminders looking to deepen their understanding of play whilst enriching their provision."
50 Fantastic Ideas for Schematic Play is a practical and accessible resource that helps Early Years practitioners make sense of children's schematic behaviours and use them to enrich learning through play.
Laura England presents fifty engaging activities that build on children's natural interests, whether they are transporting, connecting, enclosing or transforming. The ideas are simple to set up, use readily available resources and are easily adapted for different settings.
One of the book's greatest strengths is its clear focus on "What's in it for the children?" Each activity explains the learning behind the play, helping practitioners understand how schemas support development across communication, mathematics, creativity, physical development and understanding of the world.
The practical Top Tips are particularly helpful. Whether suggesting different graters to support containing and transporting chalk powder during chalk-grating activities, sharing useful playdough recipes or offering simple ways to extend children's learning, they provide supportive guidance that practitioners can put into practice immediately. The inclusion of clear health and safety considerations throughout is another welcome feature, helping practitioners feel confident when introducing new experiences.
Clear, practical and firmly rooted in child development, 50 Fantastic Ideas for Schematic Play is an excellent resource for nurseries, Reception classes and childminders looking to deepen their understanding of play whilst enriching their provision.
