3 Small Green Chalk Boards with Handwriting, Lines and Squares. These are double sided chalk boards one side blank, the other with lines, with squares or with handwriting lines. Ideal for writing and sums. Like the sand tray, the impermanence of a picture or word drawn in chalk gives the child an opportunity to experiment freely with no sense of failure: they can quickly erase it and re-try. Early Learning Goals: Writing: children use their phonic knowledge to write words in ways which match their spoken sounds. They also write some irregular common words. They write simple sentences which can be read by themselves and others. Some words are spelt correctly and others are phonetically plausible. Approx size: 11 3/4" x 8 5/8" (30x22cm)
