Writing in McKee

We thought you may like to see some of the ways we "write" in reception.

We use pencil and paper (although in this case the child in question was

timing himself to see how many times he could write his name before

 the sand ran out). Mrs Matthews blurred out his name,

it was actually very beautiful handwriting!

We use the word mats and writing frames to give us inspiration.

 Here it inspired writing to Father Christmas.

We sometimes write in sand, salt, cous cous, split peas or glitter.

We write in shaving foam.

We use whiteboards or laminated sheets with pens.

 

We write in the frost with our feet or our fingers.

We write in soil with sticks.

In fact we enjoy writing so much we try it out in almost anyway we can think of!
