Instructions for introducing super sentences to children for sentence building, handwriting and letter formation practice.
I find this really successful helping emergent writers with letter formation, word building and finger spaces and more able children begin to write their own sentences.
I write the words on the line so they can copy them in the right place as it is not an independent writing exercise, it is more focused on the handwriting and letter formation so copy writing isn’t a problem.
Number formation posters with rhymes. Arrows showing direction to start writing in.
One number per page posters and a page with all numbers together.
Could be laminated and used for number formation, ordering numbers (indoor or outdoor on a washing line) or used for posters and prompts on a writing table.
I use mine outdoor for gross motor formation with chalks on the playground and indoor with sand writing etc…
A powerpoint with some quick fire subitising slides with 3 or not 3 slides.
Can be used together or separately.
I have used these alongside the NCETM mastering number activities.
