Very Hungry Caterpillar


Guest

Recommended Posts

We are doing this book next week and i am looking for something to do which is a bit different for a literacy activity. We have dne lots of sequencing so i am trying to steer clear of that sort of thing. Children are aged 4 and 5

Thanks

I saw this idea in a school

The children cut out circles of geen and attach each circle in a dififferent way to make a caterpillar

cellotape

staple

hole punch then use ;

treasury tags

split pins

pipe cleaners

wool

plastic bag ties

they looked quite effective and the children were obviously learning skills of fastening.

Could you ask the children what they would eat their way through and write a class story related to the text. Then do lots of lovely art work to illustrate their 'book' ?

 

What about making fruit and veg kebabs after a tasting session so each child gets to choose their favourites.

 

Or use the idea of circles to make a caterpillar and use it for word building in phonics.

We once made our own version about a very thirsty caterpillar - shared / guided writing session. Follow the format of the book but change foods for drinks!
