Boats

This week we'll be looking at boats and their different uses eg fishing, rescue, houseboats etc.

Maybe some of you have recollections of being on a boat which you can tell us about on a wow slip, or perhaps you could bring in some photos for us to share with the other children.

Every child will be creating their own boat card in time for a special day at the weekend! We will also discuss the shapes we see eg triangular sails.

We'll have a floating and sinking activity, trying to guess what will happen when we put heavy and light objects in the water tray.

On a different subject, we'll also be looking at pincer grip and pencil hold, either using threading or pegboards, which, in turn, is helpful towards developing more control when drawing or writing.
