today i walked down to highton primary and helped out with the preps the me, sam and grce helped out was we played word ladders which is basically we put about 20 words on the ground and as they stand on a word they need to be able to say the word that they are standing on and if they start to have trouble me and the girls give them a little hand like if the word is this then i would help them byy saying t th thi and if they don’t get it by then i say it ok maybe next time let see if the person behind you can do it then i helped them by blind folding them and putting a bit of cardboard with a letter in front of them and they have to guess what letter it is they were doing really well

Last tuesday i went to the highton primary to help out with the year preps,1 and 2′s in class and in the gym we played red light green light which is a game where all the children line up in a single file line and if u yell green light they all run till u say yellow light at which time they all stop running and they jog on they spot then if u say red light they all have to freeze. all the little children seem to love that game so we always play that at the startbut when we help out in the class room we either help them with their reading or their spelling which is a load of fun most of the time
