Making our mark!

19th May 2022

The children have really enjoyed our new book ‘Handa’s Surprise’ and have done really well learning all the fruits and animals in the story. We discussed that the story is based in Kenya, Africa and used a world map to locate Kenya and where we are in the United Kingdom. Next, we talked about the differences between there and here for example; houses, schools, temperate, food and clothes.

Finally, we have been practicing our mark making and letter formation this week. The children drew what fruit they liked best in their basket and then used the word mat to help them with their letter formation.

It's lovely to see the children expressing themselves and their ideas as their marks are gradually developing into writing and drawing.

Have a wonderful weekend.
