Thanks Nicky, that’s really helpful. I’ve started to draft this weekend and have found my writing all over the place. Hopefully this will add some organisation! Especially as I think it’s going to be hard to keep it to a page!

Hi Emma,
Honestly sounds like you have made a good start, I’m currently making lots of notes that I feel are relevant (but I know have probably gone on a tangent and will be scribbled out at a later date!) I always find it helpful to have a definition of the key words in the question to refer to so I can remember exactly what I am focusing on, and other than that I split the question in to sections to focus on singularly and then bring together at the end.
Not sure this is any help haha!

Hi Arlene
I have attached the task that was sent, hopefully you will be able to open it and save it!

I haven’t started just yet but I am going to make a start fairly soon. Like you Arlene I have found the text fascinating and I have really started to take note of mine and others interactions with children. I am even using the knowledge to deliver an all staff meeting on SST (!) which I think will really help, and be useful for my portfolio.

Joley – Thank you for all these ideas! I’m loving the ideas of creating a small world while supporting enveloping!

Kay – Yes we have started to share this with our parents. The child with the schemas has a very supportive family (Nan has a lot of Early Years experience) and has confirmed that his behaviour is similar at home and they encourage inquisitiveness. Some of our other parent’s have commented on how much their children love wheels, pushing things, rolling etc. when we have prompted conversations about what has been happening at Nursery. It’s great to have so many parents on board!

Interestingly I currently have a child that is following several schemas, particularly rotation and enveloping. The rotation schema has been worked in to our planning and as I work in a Reggio Inspired setting it has created a project for the 0-2’s. For rotation we have set up several methods of rolling (as balls are a firm favourite, but also any cylindrical container that can be emptied and rolled!). This looks like a ball run inside using large cardboard tubes and different heights of cable drums/blocks. A ball run outside made of different pieces of guttering. A small world car area with different planks running from heights. And different types of ride on/push along cause toys.
The enveloping schema happens throughout the session in which we respect and courage exploration. Crawling under the home corner table to explore their favourite rotation toys is common. They also like to experiment with crawling through a shelving unit with square holes. We are just beginning to explore this and introduce ways to use this and are planning to introduce large cardboard boxes, to be climbed inside/crawled through but can also be used by children to mark make on.

I hope this info has been helpful! I would really love to hear any thoughts/plans/practice of children with a trajectory schema!

Hi guys,
slightly late uploading so you won’t see this before the session but I have also focused on communication and language and created a singing prop basket for my 0-2’s

Hi Arlene! Thanks for setting up the threads, I found it very interesting reading your take on Vygotsky and how you’ve reflected on the effectiveness on your own practice.
I’m not sure if it was meant to be but your SSTEW was blank.
I’ll *try* to upload mine here!

Hayley
