Soft fur, sharp claws and twitching whiskers. What’s your favourite animal? One that meows? One that barks? Or maybe one that scurries or slithers? From pets at home to animals in the zoo, let’s find out what animals like to eat and where they like to sleep. Do you know how to look after a rabbit? A cat? Or even a snake? Find out how the elephant got his trunk and how the rhinoceros got his leathery skin. Perhaps you know how the dog got his waggy tail? Can you make a food chain to show who eats who? Who is a herbivore and who is a carnivore? When a gaggle of mysterious pets arrive at the local pet shop, it’s up to you to take care of them. Feed them, clean them and discover their daily needs. After all that work, curl up and take a cat nap.

The Tiger Who Came to Tea

This week Year 1 have been reading ‘The Tiger Who Came to Tea’ by Judith Kerr. They had lots of fun yesterday as they experienced their very own tea party, of sandwiches, crisps and cakes, whilst listening to the story.

Instructions 

Year 1 have followed a set of instruction to create their own lion mask. They then had a go at writing their own instructions using time conjunctions. Well done Year 1, the lion masks look amazing!
