You'll notice a few changes in this week's Nursery World, as we start to bring in some of the exciting new features we've got planned for 2002. Our pull-out activities section (pages 17-20) takes a fresh approach with a project running every week, tailored to meet the requirements of the Foundation Stage and other early years curricula for practitioners to respond to children's interests and allow for plenty of child-initiated activities. Snow and ice is the first theme, so that you can take advantage of the seasonal weather. The front page of the pull-out will also incorporate new elements, including this week's ICT activity for the nursery. Our new early years curriculum series gets back to basics, beginning with a look at opportunities for mathematical learning in the home corner (see pages 12-13). An accompanying column focuses on observation and assessment, with a case study to discuss.
