worksheets good or bad?

It really depends on what the aims/objectives of the activity are.Do they really need to record? Does it need to be a worksheet? Could it be on a whiteboard or is oral and practical enough.You must definetly develop a strong opinion on this.There is a time and a place for `worksheets` but working out when and why is the most important part.

Hi Pauline.Perhaps you could introduce the 'worksheet'at the end of the activity. A simple sequencing sheet would be simple and hold learning objectives.You could have pictures in boxes that can be coloured(creative),then cut out and stick(physical), then sequence (maths) followed by a discussion at a plenary session (cll) to discuss and recall the changes(kuw).ive just finished a year of a foundation degree and have learned not to think big, because simple often works best!
As for pros and cons to w/sheets,i agree that the children need to be age/stage appropriate.
good luck.
