I asked some of the children at work to write their names down. I wanted to explore how they identify their names and to see who could and couldn’t. As they are 3-4 years old they don’t hold a pen or pencil hard enough on the paper whilst writing or drawing something so that is why it is not legible shown through the scans. I noticed that their handwriting is rather large and they got puzzled that the didn’t have enough space to write the rest of their name.
This small activity was to explore a but about the concept of mirroring whist writing but none of the children did that so as a result they are developing well and growing to know themselves more.
