This week in Nursery, we embarked on an exciting journey with our very
first talk for writing lesson, inspired by the delightful book "The Very Hungry
Caterpillar" by Eric Carle. As a class, we collaboratively crafted our own
unique story to boost our confidence in reading and writing skills.
To kick off our adventure, we created a colourful story map, outlining the sequence of events in our tale. Each child contributed ideas, and we worked together to visualise the caterpillar's journey through vibrant fruit illustrations. Once our story map was complete, we took it a step further by adding lively actions that corresponded with each part of the story.
The highlight of our lesson was when we acted out the roles of the hungry caterpillar and pretended to munch on a variety of delicious fruits, from juicy strawberries to plump plums. The laughter and joy in the classroom were contagious as we immersed ourselves in the caterpillar's world, helping to solidify our understanding of storytelling in a fun and engaging way.
