What your child practised

  • Spotting long things and round things, and seeing that one thing can be both: a belan is long, and its end is round.
  • Finding things with the same shape: like a ball, like a box, like a tin, like an ice-cream cone.
  • Seeing which things roll, which slide, which can do both, and which shapes stack into a tall tower.
