It was lovely to all be back together again after the half-term break, and we talked about the weather we have been having recently.
We thought about what might happen if it kept raining, and asked the children if they knew a story about this . . .
Erin P was able to tell us about Noah's Ark:
"It rained so much there was a huge flood. They ate and they played in the ark. Noah built the ark because the flood was coming. God told him."
We decided to create our own ark for our new role play area . . .
We used sponge rollers to paint the ark
What do you think we used to paint the sea?
It was fun sticking on different colours for our rainbow
Can you see which animals we made?
Now we can enjoy dressing up as Noah and the animals, sort and count the animals, and sing songs or share story books about animals!
Have you got any favourite songs or story books about animals? We would love to hear about them. Post us a comment and let us know.
Mia really enjoyed reading "Talk with the animals in the jungle". This book has the function to make animal noises which Mia could press at the appropriate time, which she loved.
ReplyDeleteMia also enjoyed "A dragon on the doorstep". It is a book of hide and seek with all the different animals.
Lots of fun!
From Mia's mum.
