Since Cian has been attending KIDSPACE, I have noticed his strong interest and passion for anything with wheels, whether it be trains, trucks, or motorbikes.
Last week I brought in some books with large pictures of big rigs, and a motorbike magazine that I knew he would like. Immediately they were spotted by Cian, and every day since, he has spent lengthy periods studying them with me.
Through this experience, Cian is learning matematical concepts such as size, shape counting the wheels, and building on communication skills by using rich language. Cian is developing an understanding that symbols can be "read" by others and that thoughts, experiences and ideas can be represented through words, pictures, print, numbers, sounds, shapes, models, and photographs, as well as the ability to identify and uses information from a range of sources, including using books for reference.
