Left and Right

The day before taking holidays, we introduced the concepts of left and right. We tried to improve the linguistic and mathematical competences by having children to look at the pictures on page 18 and asking them to place their hands on the outlines. The teachers showed them in English that when the hands are in this position, the index and thumb of the left hand form and L.

Finally, we had children colour the left hand green and the right hand red and print them on page 19.

We used green tempera paint for the left hand and red for the right hand and encouraged the children to use the words.
