This morning we practiced pencil control and writing our first names – some of us wrote our Surname also. We tried to keep our writing small and make sure our names had a capital letter at the start.
In Numeracy we explored the Ten Trains and showed Miss Stevenson our counting skills as well as writing our answers down. 2, 3 and 5 are really tricky to write with our tiny hands.
This afternoon we had a choice of a few activities, including drawing and lego. Some of us played a counting game with Miss Stevenson.
This morning we were put in to groups and given our very first task board and had 4 jobs to complete. We all listened very well and tried to be very independent. Here are some of us doing a drawing job and playing in the messy area.
After break we went to P.E. and played some team games in the Gym Hall.
This afternoon we painted a self portrait and had a little play.
