Hi lotte,

I did Superheroes as a one week topic for the first time last year when ofsted were in my school and it went down so well that I did it again this year with a few alterations. Off the top of my head some of the activities we did were:

• A Spiderman dance (to mission impossible themetune);
  Went on a treasure hunt (following clues that I had prepared and hidden) to find a superhero cape and laser (CLL - print carries meaning);
  Making our own superhero laser (creative);
  Talking about if we had special powers what we would like these to be (PSE);
  Making a telephone directory of Superhero telephone numbers so we can contact them (PSRN - recognise and write numerals to 9)
   
  Superheros was featured as a topic in Nursery Ed in April 2006 - there is a really good poster on the scholastic site which you could put up on your interactive whiteboard but you have to be a subscriber to the magazine to be able to view it.
  

 

I have attached my dance plan for the spiderman dance if it is any use for you.

I wish the TV channels would reintroduce Captain Planet. My oldest son loved it and it would fit with todays thoughts on the environment, he was a green crusader.

Heres a link to the programme Captain planet and te planeteers
