As one of their first activities, Fainjin’s class have made self-portraits. They are lovely, paper-plate faces on top of blocky paper cut-out bodies. The kid-drawn faces have yarn “hair” glued to the top: Fainjin’s is almost exactly the right shade of red.
On their “tummies” is written a list of three things they can do, with the intro “I’m so smart I can…”
Fainjin’s list is:
- count to 100
- run fast
- make lego
I’m not sure that he can count to 100, but perhaps he can. He knows lots of numbers, so maybe he can sometimes, even if not all the time. I love that he thinks it’s an impressive and important skill.
