We have been working hard to build our gross motor muscles and strength this morning! We used the brushes to sweep soapy water and made rivers, we used spray bottles and stencils to make patterns on the playground and we built and took part in an obstacle course. This has so many benefits! It will help us to be physically strong, help us to become even better writers and it makes us happy!
