    Elliot completed the maths. He needed a little bit of support with quarter past and quarter to but was able to tell the time independently for o’clock and half past.

    Reading
    “I predict the wolf is going to eat her. A hunter finds the wolf and cuts the wolf open to eat it and see’s there’s a child and granny in there.”
