Hello everyone!
Thank you very much for the multitude of ways you have all come up with for name writing! Please continue to bring them in as we'll be looking at names until the end of the week.
Today we started our new topic: The Hungry Caterpillar. We looked at the story and the children were all very knowledgeable about caterpillars and butterflies. This week in literacy we are going to be focusing on how to hold your pencil effectively and writing children's name cursively. Cursive writing is a style of joined writing and can take a little longer to get to grips with. We therefore start early to ensure lots of practise. Below is an example of each letter written cursively.
We will be covering each letter in school with the children and how to form them.
In maths this week we are thinking about counting objects accurately and what number is 'one more than' a given number. We'll also be painting some butterfly pictures and looking at symmetry in relation to this.
