If you go down to the woods today...
In our topic of Goldilocks and the Three Bears we have used bears as the impetus to count, add and use the language of comparison - small, smaller, smallest, large, larger, largest.
Filling pots of different sizes with porridge oats to make the bears their breakfast and to talk about small, medium and large.
We used large bricks with pictures from the story to retell Goldilocks and the Three bears using our own words.
Since Goldilocks had eaten all the Bear's porridge, we thought they might like a teddy bear's picnic so we used our fine motor skills to make some jam sandwiches. They were very yummy!!
We had a fabulous time exploring the messy play trays and used lots of great language to describe what we could feel - "gloopy", "squishy", "gooey", "messy", "slimy", "squidgy".
We had fun outside making footprints in the paint and finding out what colours we could mix to make new colours.
