EFYS - Baby Animals names for age 2-5

A PowerPoint presentation which includes colourful pictures of the baby animals and the sounds of most of the animals. Children are encouraged to answer even if a guess and then on one click the answer is revealed. Some are more unusual than others; for instance who knew that baby Hedgehog’s are called Hoglet’s? Designed for and used with 2 year olds - proved to be very successful as they cried out to see it again and again. Suggested follow up - groups of animals; a group of owls is called a Parliment. EYFS Understanding the World. EYFS Communication & Language extention activity: using puppets and mimicing the animal sounds.

EYFS - THE LION FAMILY - a starter or short activity for 2-5 years

A PowerPoint which explores the Lion’s family using key learning words: PRIDE, explaining it as children understand - Daddy & Mummy and baby: CUB. We touch upon the job roles of the two genders as well as how to recognise a LION from a LIONESS. The PowerPoint was designed for and used with 2 year olds entitled ‘Family’ (EYFS - Communication & Language and Understanding the World) however it would also suit as a starter or revision activity for older children. Could also be used as a assembly.

EYFS - EXPORE COSTA RICA

(1)
Aimed at children aged 2 plus. An activity which can last from 15 minutes to 60 dependent upon how you use the activities suggested on the PowerPoint slides. Concentrates on the areas; Communication and Language, Literacy and Understanding the World. These activities explore Costa Rica radiating from the central item: the Pineapple which grows in Costa Rica. Involves sensory activities, feeling, smelling and tasting the Pineapple on an attempt to encourage healthy fruit snack options for children. Most children are thrilled to become the animals of Costa Rica, I have only included the 2 favorite animals in this PowerPoint but there are hundreds more to choose from such as Toucans, Snakes, Dragons… Enjoy :)

For the teachers aid, the original order is the correct order of events. A very useful method to help students to reinforce the correct order of events in the novella.
