Early Years

Writing in provision - November 2021

“I’ve made invitations. This is for my mum.” I asked where she was inviting her mum to and she said to the theatre to see Stickman. She came back to me to show me the invitation she had made for me to go to numberblocks.

“I’ve written my name and I’ve written mummy and daddy. This is where I tried to do a m but it went wrong so I tried again.”

Not a Stick - December 2020

We read the story ‘Not a Stick’ by Antoinette Portis. We completed a variety of activities based around sticks both inside and outside the classroom. After sharing the story a few times we described how sticks feel, developing our vocabulary. We then thought of our own ideas for using a stick and drew pictures in the style of the book. Some of us were able to record our idea underneath the picture. We turned our ideas into a class book to share.
