The Very Hungry Caterpillar
Chicks!
We were very lucky that Eggucation sent us some eggs and equipment to look after them! The Cherries couldn't wait to watch the eggs hatch! We learnt all about the life cycle of a chicken and created our own diagrams at the sticky table. The Cherries have enjoyed watching them grow and they all enjoyed holding the chicks. They have helped to feed them and have learned what chicks need to help them grow. We studied the chicks and used our senses to think of vocabulary to describe them.
Easter Bonnet Day
Elmer- Back to School, Being Special & Being Unique
The Cherries listened to the story 'Elmer' at carpet time. We discussed what makes Elmer special and explored new vocabulary in the story (e.g. 'patchwork'). We talked about how being different made Elmer feel and discussed how his differences make him special. The Cherries thought about what makes them special and created their own elephant patterns using their favourite colours and pictures of things that they like.
