During a literacy session, the Reception class embarked on a creative journey by selecting their very own favorite stories to explore in depth. After listening closely to the tales and discussing the vibrant illustrations, the children were tasked with designing their own unique front covers based on what they had seen and heard. This activity served as a fantastic workout for their fine motor skills, as they carefully manipulated  their pens to bring their visions to life. Beyond the artistic effort, the project provided a wonderful platform for the children to communicate their personal interests, explaining why certain characters or scenes resonated with them. By translating auditory and visual information into their own tangible creations, they not only strengthened their early literacy comprehension but also gained confidence in expressing their individual identities.
