Staying for lunch at school for the first time can be a BIG deal for the children and families but working together we have been able to make this part of our day a time to be social and learn to be independent too!
We are managing so much: listening, answering questions, chatting, making choices, remembering routines and using physical skills to hold our trays and to cut our food to eat!
- Line up and take a tray, a knife, a fork and a spoon
- Take our plates of food from the cooks.
- Choose some salad
- Carry our dinner to our seat
- Scrape our plates and sort everything into the correct buckets.
- Enjoying chatting with our friends and an adult.
Lunch time at school is an important part of our learning day!
