Discovery Time from the last couple of weeks

Over the last couple of weeks we have been working on Co-operating and Negotiating. There is plenty of opportunity to practise skills like these during Discovery Time sessions.

Cross Country

This week the whole school travelled to Rabbit Island for our school cross country...
Room 3 children did so well with their running. I was very proud of them!!

              

Barrier Games

We have been using barrier games to help us learn positional language like left or right and above or below. These games are also a great avenue for listening and giving instructions.
The idea is two children have their own game board and game pieces, They are all identical to each others. There is a barrier between them (in our case a book) One child gives instructions to the other telling them where on their own board to place the game pieces. It is a case of listening carefully and following the instructions completely. You are not supposed to look at the other childs board!

   

More Shapes

We can name lots of shapes now and we are also good at putting them into groups according to their characteristics....
