A Texture Hunt

That's not my.......  a fantastic collection of stories to introduce your child to words such as velvety, smooth, rough. As a group the children listened to the stories and repeated the words as well as touching the textures in the book. We then went on a texture hunt to find natural resources that had different textures. Once we'd returned with all our glorious finds, we put a name to how each item felt. Sadly there was litter on our school grounds which the children collected, however, this gave us the opportunity to discuss how littering is not healthy for the planet we live on and we must all work together to take care of our community. We popped the litter in the bin and gave our hands a very good clean to wash the germs away. A brilliant afternoon of exploration and learning.
