This morning @Topcliffeschool we mastered transferring balance to step over hurdles completely unsupported! 🌟🎉 More balance and core challenges to come in the new year! pic.twitter.com/6VohkfAfyu— Mrs Bignall (@MrsB_OTchampion) December 19, 2024

The #OT 'What's in the box?' activity this week @Topcliffeschool We sang Old McDonald and the children put their hand in the box to find an animal. There were other random objects inside so this was about using touch without vision to develop tactile awareness and discrimination! pic.twitter.com/bBkJE59615— Mrs Bignall (@MrsB_OTchampion) December 19, 2024

For some of our students @Topcliffeschool completing activities where feet have to leave the ground can be quite frightening. This half term, this pupil has been standing and balancing completely unsupported on the end of this low beam. Look at that smile! 🤩🌟👏 pic.twitter.com/IliOGih9ps— Mrs Bignall (@MrsB_OTchampion) December 13, 2024

A festive multi sensory approach to letter formation over the last 2 weeks here @Topcliffeschool in #OT sessions. This has been a really engaging activity which has positively impacted on improving letter formation and mark making. pic.twitter.com/JcWCBS79FF— Mrs Bignall (@MrsB_OTchampion) December 12, 2024

Big arm movements help our children to get ready to form letters and shapes! The ribbons we use add a really fun element to this activity and the children love using them in our #OT sessions @Topcliffeschool pic.twitter.com/gtnEzS9qWi— Mrs Bignall (@MrsB_OTchampion) November 29, 2024

@Topcliffeschool in our #OT sensory feeding sessions, the children explored custard! They smelled it, tasted it briefly and used their hands to hide and retrieve objects from it. So proud of the resilience they are slowly building over time! 🤩 pic.twitter.com/C0UBAM2ED2— Mrs Bignall (@MrsB_OTchampion) November 29, 2024

The 'What's in the box?' #OT activity this week @Topcliffeschool was all about cutting skills. It included edible snow and farm animals which the children really enjoyed exploring. Each child added extra snow by cutting small pieces of white card onto the animals. 🤩 pic.twitter.com/wOLSdCiSIu— Mrs Bignall (@MrsB_OTchampion) November 28, 2024

This week in #OT sessions @Topcliffeschool the children have been doing target activities with a twist! This was really challenging but a great focus on core stability and balance. Both girls showed huge resilience and actually wanted to continue practising! 🤩 pic.twitter.com/F9CGhSnsWt— Mrs Bignall (@MrsB_OTchampion) November 22, 2024

Willows have had a wonderful morning exploring the snow. We collected snow and made mini snowmen using loose parts. We also had a snowball fight 😁☃️❄️ @Topcliffeschool pic.twitter.com/lj86WAuQk4— Mrs Humphryes & Willows (@MrsHumphryes19) November 19, 2024
