Langley Room



We have used coloured card and straws to create rainbow threading this week as we use and develop our fine motor control and coordination to get the little wires carefully through the little holes! Whilst threading, the children have engaged in conversations about colour and shape;
“It’s black, a black rectangle” said Kristian, “pink triangle” he continued,
“Black straw - and that’s a green square, I got it” said Hugo Sen.
“I got a green one” commented Hugo Sanders, “pink and blue, yellow and pink and purple and red, yep on da stick” he added.
“I do pink” said Gabby,
“Triangle, put it there” said Ammar.

The children have enjoyed sharing their family photographs with their peers as they identify the members of their family - we look forward to sharing some more photos next week.

Best wishes,

Jess, Kerry, Pippa and Amy
