Last week we used fine motor skills to help develop our finger muscles; we have used spades in the soil to plant bulbs and flowers, used colourful blocks to make buildings and cleaned the dinosaurs with toothbrushes.

In the dough we have been making shapes using cutters and matching them to the shapes on a sheet and counting the number of sides on each shape.

We have been using our new block paints in the craft area as well as practising our cutting. We have also painted our giant pumpkin ready for Halloween week this week.

During music and movement we have enjoyed a clapping and rhyming song called “Who stole the cookie from the cookie jar”. This gave the children a lot of fun as we found who it was!
On Friday we finished the week using our shop vegetables to print colourful pictures.
