Sorting and Matching
I'm not sure if it's related to Caspar being back at school or to his stage in development but Otis is going through his materials at a great pace. He is using a lot of materials everyday although he might only do the activity once or twice which might last only one or two minutes. In some way this is really frustrating as he appears to be concentrating less and acting like he is in a hurry.
Above Otis is matching some small model animals. Most of his matching activities to date have been matching identical items such as model animals or fruits and vegetables.
Today we started a sorting activity with nuts. Otis cannot sit still and there is no way of making him, it's a matter of embracing it. He was still able to sort the nuts while jumping and moving around. I would love a sorting tray, some empty bowls could have worked well too.
