I am really sorry to bother you again with another EYFS question:o

My mindee is 17mths & on Friday we were doing some drawings & she managed to draw 2 circles:clapping:

Now I have looked through the handbook, I thought there would be something in PSR&N Shape, Space & Measures, but for the life of me I don't seem to be able to find anything relating to actually drwing them.

I also checked CLL & did see in writing a couple that could maybe relate, but nothing saying about it being a presice action, IYSWIM?

Any ideas??

Thanks

CLL - Writing
16-26 months examine marks they and others make
8-20 begin to make marks

Handwriting:
8-20 - being to bring together hand/eye movements
16-26 make random marks with tools and fingers
22-36 being to show control of use of tools and equipment
30-50 - draw lines and circles using gross motor skills



have you the Letters and Sounds Pack Phase 1 and 2? Lots of help and advice in there too (expands on EYFS CLL)

Thanks Pip, I read those in writing but wasn't sure if it was a good enough link but I guess as usual I am over complicating it again!!:blush:

Oh BTW - I haven't those packs (that I know of anyway, I seem to have lots of books for this & that), where/how do you get them?
