Today's focus was manipulation.  This means making an object move in different ways.

We have been practicing running in lanes.
The day was perfect for our races.

We are learning how to do a jigsaw puzzle.
First find the corner pieces. Then join the corners with the side pieces.
Next fill in the middle pieces. Now you will be finished.
Have a go at home,  it is a good problem solving activity.
