In PE this week we were looking at keeping control of the ball when dribbling. Children in the Merlins class enjoyed our warm up game ‘king of the hill’ using tennis balls to really focus on small, controlled touches.
In music with Mr Price this week the Merlins played a range of songs including hot cross buns. The children are developing their ability to play in unison and even began playing songs in a round for the first time.
