We thought we would share with you today what we have been exploring in our literacy corner, lines!\u00a0 We began our journey of exploration looking at a story called A Line Can Be…..<\/p>\n

We loved using our fingers to follow the lines in the book, developing our descriptive language to describe the different kinds of lines we could see.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
“My finger is\u00a0 going for a walk in the book!.”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
“Round and round.”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We began to explore lines further. We started by using pens and acetate paper to explore what kind of lines we could make. Some of our younger children used their knowledge of shapes whilst mark making.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
“Circles”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
“Dot, dot, dot”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Some of our older children explored drawing fast and slow, sharing with each other what happened as their pen made lines across the paper.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Look, when we go faster and faster, the line gets messy, messy messy.”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Others enjoyed exploring the different types of lines they could make.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
“I am going to try making boxes like in the book.”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
“My lines are loopy lines.”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We even discovered that we could turn our lines\u00a0 into different shapes to create pictures!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
“Look! My lines have made a picture! I have done my family.”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We had so much fun making lines with pens, we decided to explore a different way of making lines, playdough! This time the children were using their knowledge of the different types of lines, using descriptive words to share what they had made with each other. Some children used line templates to imprint into the playdough and some rolled the playdough into different familiar lines.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
“I need to push down hard.”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
“What will happen?”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
” I am making a spiral with my playdough line.”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
“Look I have rolled it into a big circle!.”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I wonder what lines we can explore next…..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
