The children have been taking great pride in demonstrating their ability to recognise and write their first and, where appropriate, their surname. They have been using a range of fun materials to develop their skills, e.g. using magnetic letters, chalk, paint, play dough, alphabet beads, pens and pencils. When creating artwork or models, the children are enjoying offering to write their own names on their masterpieces.
As part of our literacy focus next week, the children will be focusing on rhyming words with Miss Rutherford. They are already showing their excitement for one of the games that we will be playing, ‘What Rhymes?’.
