Our book of the week in Nursery this week is ‘Dear Zoo’ by Rod Campbell.
We have been enjoying listening carefully to the story and talking about key events. In our Literacy lesson today, we made a story map and practiced retelling the story. We were able to think about what animal came first in the story and order the other animals correctly as we sang our new song.
This story has helped us to develop our vocabulary. We learnt some new words which were tricky at first but we learnt some actions to help us understand them – ‘fierce, grumpy, naughty and perfect.’
