# Week 6 in Chestnut Class

This week Chestnut Class have accessed a range of activities to develop our gross and fine motor skills. On Tuesday Chorley Sports Partnership engaged us in activities to support our coordination and balance. We have been focussing our attention to travel in different ways by sliding, crawling and climbing along benches, through tunnels and on gym equipment. We have enjoyed the trikes and scooters and have been learning to use our feet to push and glide in the playground. A small group visited the Space Centre and enjoyed the swinging chair, ball pool, fibre optics and slides.  During class tasks we have enjoyed fine motor activities making under the sea pictures to promote our pincer grasp and tools to print which develop our hand eye coordination and hand strength.

What a fantastic week. Well done Chestnut Class.
