This week Pim met a baby elephant!
" Do you live in a hole?" asked Pim.
The baby elephant laughed." No, why would I live in a hole I'm king of the beasts!"
Mel and I decided that we would continue with our exploration of adjectives which we had started last week.. The children were beginning to understand how to use adjectives and were thinking of some really creative words and ideas.
With this in mind we found some lovely descriptive poems which we explored with the children. Having got some ideas on how to write a poem, they chose partners and start their first lessons in poetry writing! The excitement was tangible and I must say that I was thrilled with their work....
We then proceeded to make elephants from paper plates.
First we painted the paper plates |
Cutting out the templates for the nose, trunk and tusks |
Inspiration from Kyles talk on Indian Elephants |
and eventually pasted the poems on the elephants!
