The children enjoyed Sam's sensory assembly in the yard today. They have been exploring the colours 'red' and 'white' for St George's Day.
The children have been working with Evie (our teacher student) in Maths, filling up buckets of sand and tipping them upside down to make a sand castle and then realising their bucket is empty. We then filled up containers with water and encouraged the children to pour that water out.
The children have been developing their hand–eye coordination by using their fingers dipped in paint to fill in the circles and complete their pictures.
The children enjoyed listening to our new sensory story: 'Kipper’s Sunny Day'. They loved exploring all the sensory props, especially making their own sandcastles and feeling the gentle spray of mist from the water bottle. After the story, the children coloured in a picture of the main character of the story: Kipper.
