As a precursor and support to developing good letter formation, pre-writing activities help children to build fine motor skills and the language to talk about shape and pattern. This app employs the foundational pre-writing patterns to develop and consolidate such skills. Select a pebble from the array and watch its pattern created by a fish in the rockpool. Trace the track of the bubbles, watching the pattern appear. Choose the same or a different pebble from the array to continue exploring.
Perfect for Early Years Foundation Stage, as well as supporting the Key Stage 1 curriculum.
