Because I'm happy!

SAY HELLO TO DOUGH DISCO!

What a fantastic week we've had!  We introduced "Dough disco!", a daily workout to music with play dough, which incorporates a series of hand and finger exercises. These strengthen and develop children’s fine and gross motor dexterity and grip in a wonderfully fun way! 
We got those fingers, hands and arms moving to the song "Happy".
    We got so carried away that there were a few instances of dough flying through the air, including Mrs Courtney's!               
                                     Stretch up high and squeeze!

                                           
                                             Take Peter Pointer up the steps... 
                                         time for him to dive down into the dough!

Next week we're going to step up the pace with the song "I like to move it, move it"!

WE ALSO HAD FUN DRESSING UP!




 

On Friday we went on an exciting journey up to Upper School, and were treated to the older children sharing stories with us.
We invited them down to Little Conkers room next week, and they said yes! We can't wait - even more stories!
