Rough and smooth

Whilst out walking the dog we pass a number of silver birch trees. Last year I began to show Katy the concepts of Rough and Smooth and we would often have a guess and then a feel of the bark on the trees. Katy enjoyed this.

Up until recently Mary has not shown much interest in the idea.During the Easter holidays she started feeling the trees. Our Language aide with the help of a few texts told us the signs for Rough and Smooth.

Today Mary signed "Rough" and "Smooth". What a clever girl!

Further down the path she signs to me "Mummy, Look flower." WoW!!! The best Dandelion I have ever picked.
