A recent addition to our rhyme and singing time has been this beautiful stretchy song band which was kindly created and donated by Mrs. Jardine.
\nThe band is made from an interesting mix of colours and textures of fabric, providing a sensory experience and encouraging the children to focus as the band is moved round while they sing. It is motivating and fun, encouraging group participation and great social interaction as the children talk about which section of the band has stopped at them, how it feels, looks and what they like about it.
\nThank you so much to Mrs. Irving’s Mum for spending so much time sourcing the materials and putting them together. This must have been quite a challenge but your hard work is greatly appreciated by everyone.<\/p>\n
