🌟✍️ Handwriting Milestone Alert! 🌟✍️ From shaky lines to confident strokes, we’ve witnessed incredible growth in our Reception children’s handwriting since September! 📝🎉 At the start of the school year, many struggled to hold pencils and form letters, but with dedication and practice, they’ve come a long way. ✨Picture this: wobbly lines transforming into smooth curves and uneven letters evolving into consistent shapes. The class are now mastering the art of letter formation with finesse, making strides in both fluency and legibility. 📚🖌️ But it’s not just about the letters! Our Reception stars have been busy honing their fine motor skills through fun activities like cutting, threading, and crafting. 🎨✂️ These activities have helped them refine their hand-eye coordination and dexterity, setting the stage for even more impressive creations ahead. And let’s not forget the joy of play! Our children have been on the move, building strength and coordination through games, running, and jumping. 🏃‍♂️🤸‍♀️ With every leap and bound, they’re not just having fun – they’re laying the foundation for a healthy, active lifestyle. We’re so proud of our Reception superstars and their incredible progress. 🌟 Keep shining bright, little ones! The journey of learning and growing is just beginning. 🚀 #HandwritingMilestone #FineMotorSkills #GrossMotorSkills #ReceptionRocks #LearningJourney 📚🖍️
