Spring 1
Over spring term, the toddlers have loved learning all about ‘Amazing Animals’.
This term we look into arctic animals, under the sea creatures, jungle animals and farm animals.
To kick start the topic, the children learnt about the different animals that live in icy weather, they too explored ice and snow. Next the toddlers explored under the sea with a range of activities that helped them to gain knowledge of the different creatures that live under the sea and on the beach. Next the children learnt about jungle animals, we loved looking at books such as ‘giraffes can’t dance’ where we were able to explore movement and dance. Elmer was a huge hit as it taught the children all about colours and patterns. The final area that the toddlers learn about is at the farm, during this time we cover easter where we make easter crafts and take part in an easter egg hunt around school. We also look into the names of the different animals and their babies. We are lucky enough to have a farmer friend that brings his tractor onto our playground to show the children just how big they are.
