Yesterday, the Reception children at The Willows were busy exploring weight and measure! They began by seeing what they could do with the resources. Some started by filling and emptying, while others were stacking and balancing.
Playing with the bathroom scales soon turned into playing Doctors and Nurses (very apt seeing that today was Doctor's Day!) as some children associated the bathroom scales with this. It was lovely to watch the children's understanding grow as they learnt about concepts such as heavy and light, pointing out which group was heavier and noticing and copying numerals (practising writing for a purpose).
Good job Reception!
