Yes . . . that is a very good question! KP as part of their position work in maths this week have been learning about left and right. We have danced, sung, moved around to learn our left from our right and we really like this song that can be viewed below. Please sing and move along with us to this robot song at home. Don't forget the fist pumps!

To continue our work in maths on 'position' KP played some barrier games. Partners took turns to give instructions where to place certain items on a picture. The child giving the instructions also had to place their items on their picture to match the instruction they gave. We used a big book as a barrier so children could only rely on the verbal instructions given e.g. the name of the item and then the position word - on, next to, under, above. They then took the barrier away to see if their pictures matched and swapped roles. Lots of wonderful talking, listening, explaining, laughing and the realisation we may not always explain things as well as we think we have! Lots of fun too!
No . . . KP are not selling real estate! We have been studying the concept of 'position' in maths this term. Using ourselves, Grug and our Grug puppets we consolidated what we have been talking about and exploring in class. Please watch us in action below.
