GetWise is instrumental in working with Early Years Practitioners within the preschool setting to develop outdoor projects that cover the EYFS outcomes and closely meet the needs of children and their individual learning journeys.
Our Art in Nature projects around stories such as “Owl Babies” have been a terrific success with lots of very excited faces and art being produced at home weeks later!
With skilled Level 3 Early Years Practitioners on our team, we deliver quality EYFS projects working closely with YOUR pre-school practitioners.
Our Example Outline Plan for Owl Babies
Through reading of the story Owl Babies to the group, they should be familiar with the characters so that a large scale collage can be created. Pictures can then be taken for their learning journeys.
Materials
Sweet chestnut sticks, large pole for perc h, ferns, leaf litter
Methods
Collage: Create the owl babies on a perch
Sculpture: Create owl nests
EYFS Aims
Creative
Beginning to use representation as a form of communication, translating the form of natural materials into other familiar shapes.
Physical
Through handling materials the children will be able to develop their fine and gross motor skills. Through out door creativity they are encouraged to develop health and fitness awareness.
Knowledge & Understanding
The children will describe and talk about what they see and show curiosity and interest in their surroundings.
Problem Solving
The children will be showing an interest in shape and space by making arrangements with objects.
Communication, Language, Literacy
The children will use talk, actions and object to recall a relive the past experiences of hearing the story by translating it into their own creative images.
Personal, Social & Emotional, Self Confidence, Self Esteem
Through pride in achievement, the children will increase in confidence and take pleasure in gaining more complex skills.
And Finally
In the setting and at home, pictures have been drawn and stories have been told and written.
