An important aspect of early literacy development is mark-making, when children use tools or their bodies to make marks, patterns, lines and shapes. In this webinar, early years teacher Katherine Bate and early years consultant Tamsin Grimmer will talk about the importance of mark-making and how to make this fun and accessible for all children. Come along and delve into the exciting and sometimes messy world of playful mark-making and explore practical ways mark-making can be incorporated into your setting.
