Striving for Accuracy


What does striving for accuracy look like? Well, our afternoon children demonstrated some wonderful examples of showing accuracy and taking time to complete their tasks. Kathy repeated three puzzles over and over, each time practising and perfecting where she placed the pieces. She is learning that practise   helps us get better at things. Ka nui ake to matauranga, your knowledge increases.


Charlotte took careful, quiet, precession to carefully balance blocks and then even more carefully position  teddy bears around her creation. Such concentration!

And again such careful concentration from Tyla and Maddie as they threaded tiny beads and buttons onto thin wire for this artist creation.
Children are demostrating pride in their work and as teachers we acknowledge, encourage and have high expectations for our children's learning and development. Children can reach their full potential   and develop important habits when surrounded by activities that promote this type of learning.
