We have read Here We Are (Notes for Living on Planet Earth) by Oliver Jeffers this week. We have enjoyed reading and discussing the book, picking out the main themes and messages.
We will link the book to our geography learning about our local area and science learning about plants, animals and habitats too. We will be learning about our locality, Scholes, and the city and country we live in.
Help at home
- read the book again and talking about the key messages
- talk about our local area – particularly what you like and dislike about it
- help your child learn their address
- read other books by Oliver Jeffers
There is a link to listen to it here. (This is a YouTube link. Top tip for watching YouTube with your child: go to the settings cog along the play bar and turn off autoplay – this avoids an inappropriate clip coming up automatically, and helps to discourage your child from passively watching clip after clip.)
