It is perfect for small group work, where educators can support children in segmenting and blending sounds as they draw. Because this is an English vocabulary drawing sheet eyfs core resource, it is pitched at the expected standard for reception-aged children, focusing on high-frequency vocabulary and imaginative interpretation.
