Objective: Child varies the amount of information provided to meet the demands of the situation.

On the letter sensory tray, the children sat with their educator around a tray filled with different letters covered in rice. The children were encouraged to look and sort through the rice and find different letters, then shout out a word that starts with that letter.

Identifying letters is an important skill for children to develop because it forms the foundation for learning to read and write. When children are able to recognise letters, they are able to start connecting them with the sounds they make, and this is essential for reading and spelling.
