This week, we used our whole bodies to make big, bold marks! We stretched our arms high to create rainbows, swept them from side to side and moved them round and round to draw circles. We had fun seeing what happened when we changed the size and direction of our movements.
As we drew, we developed the shoulder and arm strength and control we need for handwriting. Starting with large movements helps us become more confident at controlling the smaller movements we will use when forming letters later this year.
