Enhance your continuous provision and create a fully inclusive classroom environment with this comprehensive pack of Early Years Communication Boards! Designed specifically for the EYFS classroom, these visual support boards are perfect for placing in your various learning zones to help children communicate, make choices, and develop their vocabulary. What’s Included? This pack includes beautifully designed, easy-to-read communication boards for the following areas and routines: Messy & Sensory Play:Sand, Water, Playdough Creative Areas: Art, Painting, Writing Imaginative & Construction: Small World, Blocks, Transport, Home Corner Outdoor & Routines: Outside, Snack Time, Nursery Rhymes Bonus Story Boards:The Very Hungry Caterpillar, Jack and the Beanstalk Why are Communication Boards essential in the Early Years? A truly inclusive classroom ensures that every child has a voice. Placing these boards within your provision is a highly effective way to support all learners, including those with EAL (English as an Additional Language), speech and language delays, or non-verbal children. Promotes Independence & Choice:These boards give children the visual tools they need to communicate exactly what they would like to play with, reducing frustration and empowering them to direct their own learning. Supports Language Development: For all children, visual cues are a powerful bridge to spoken language. Having targeted vocabulary available in every area encourages children to point, sign, and eventually vocalise new words, bridging the gap between their current communication level and new vocabulary acquisition. Encourages Social Interaction: They provide a shared focus for children and adults to use together, modeling language and facilitating peer-to-peer communication during play. How to Use: Simply print, laminate, and display at child-height in the corresponding areas of your provision. For the story boards, keep them handy during your focused reading times or place them in your reading nook/small world area for story mapping and retelling!
