Transcription

1 Here to There Children love to move about from here to there, so this week in Play School we explore the different ways people and animals move through stories, play, music and games. We look at different modes of transport, including cars, trucks, buses, boats, trains, aeroplanes, submarines, rockets, helicopters, bicycles, horses and even hot air balloons! We also look at lots of different ways to move our bodies and the unique ways different animals move. Throughout the week friends are visited, holidays are planned and taken and deliveries are made! Each day we look at the Flying Fox Calendar and, on Wednesday, we are visited by some friendly guinea pigs.
