Dear families and friends,
We have been very busy talking about animals and the homes
that they live in. The children have been engaging in some deep thinking about
where animals live, with many thinking at first that all animals live in a Zoo.
We have been challenging their thinking on this, and they have now discovered
that while there are some animals that do live in Zoos for us to visit and learn
from, animals actually do have homes out in the wild.
To support the children to further develop their understanding of
animal homes we have brought in some tadpoles for them to observe and to look
after. The children have had many rich discussions about where tadpoles
live and what they need to survive.
He lives in stinky water- Angelina
H lives in dirty, smelly water- Patrick
They live in rivers- Eva
And ponds- Bella
They eat dragonflies- Harrison
The children have been fascinated by the tadpoles and have been
loving watching them in their tank. Please come in and have a look at our
special friends, and ask your child how they are changing.
Kind regards,
Kimberley, Coral and Tiarna
