This book was written to help all practitioners working with young children recognise and clearly identify the learning steps within and across each band of Development Matters.

Taking each Development Matters descriptor we have translated them into simple I am learning to statements that are easy to use in every day planning.

Laid out in 3 distinct columns simple learning statements are matched to Development Matters descriptors with a Looking Ahead column to help the practitioner visualise where children are heading.

Save planning time and use this document to pinpoint next steps in learning, closing the gaps and accelerating progress.

They were great I use them for weekly planning, as there are fewer statements which ensure coverage of the DM statements succinctly.

They are also good for support staff - easier to understand.

Also easier for parents to follow and child-friendly.

Arley Primary School I have added the learning statements onto our continuous provision plans which are displayed and shared with the foundation team.

We discussed how we could model the learning statements language for children to hear and we are hoping the children will absorb this language and start to use the language of learning too We also shared them during moderation with Year One which was an interesting discussion All staff members found them very useful and I thought they were good value for money.

Kelly Turner - St Paul's Primary School We think they are a great tool for planning and assessment in EYFS and worth every penny Holbrooks Primary.
