Photos from Kirton Primary School's postThis term, our Reception children have been developing their handwriting skills by exploring and creating pre-patterns. They have loved getting creative and hands-on, experimenting with making patterns through a fantastic range of different media! 🎨🖌️🖍️ Developing strong handwriting skills is a crucial part of helping children build the foundations they need for successful writing. It’s been a real hit this term — especially our messy play activities! 🫧🙌 From mark-making to getting stuck into sensory experiences, our children have been busy strengthening those little hands while having lots of fun along the way. 👀 Take a look at what they’ve been up to! We think you’ll agree they’ve been working incredibly hard. 💕✏️ 6 Likes
Photos from Kirton Primary School's postY6 Pheasants have been enjoying our new Active Spelling lessons; it has been fantastic to see their enthusiasm for learning new spelling patterns and rules. Active Spelling gives children the opportunity to explore, investigate and understand how words work, rather than simply memorising lists of spellings. By talking about words, spotting patterns, making connections and practising in different ways, children are more likely to remember what they have learnt and apply it confidently in their own writing. 11 Likes
