To link to our work on the text ‘Owl Babies’, Crew McGlone have been drawing their own mummy owl following a step-by-step instruction sheet. They used crayons to make sure that each part of the owl was the correct colour, and once finished they used a starting dot to trace over the word ‘m-u-m’. The children have worked hard at remembering everything they need to show that they are ready to write, including; bottoms to the back of their chairs, tummies touching the table, 6 feet on the floor, 2 hands ready to write, and pinch parrot.
