Guest Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 Please help. I have been asked to plan the knowledge and understanding of the world strand for the topic night and day. Where do i start? Does anyone have any planning for this topic. Much appreciated
Guest Wolfie Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 How about nocturnal animals? - the story Peace at Last by Jill Murphy provides a nice link for that. And how about something about light and dark, maybe do some exploration of dark places (dens?) with torches, etc.? How old are the children you are planning for? Have they got any current interests that you could link it to? Dens are always popular!
Guest Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 Who works at night?, animals at night, stories about 'Peace at last ' by Jill Murphy and 'Good night owl'by Pat Hutchins 'Owl babies' by Martin wadell. sources of light, space, colour mixing dark to light shades, time, why we need to sleep, dreams. bed designs and bedroms. routine for bed-differences and similarities-(good one for different cultures as in other children.)
Steve Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 Hi Nikki - Welcome to the Forum! Have you found our Night and Day topic support article yet? It has a number of outline ideas and two activity plans for K&U as well as the other areas. You can find it here.
Guest Wolfie Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 Sorry Nikki - didn't see that it was your first post -a warm welcome from me too!
Guest Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 Hello Nikki welcome to the forum, hopefully you are beginning to discover the helpful ideas and useful resources the forum offers, be careful though planning tasks can go out the window due to being too engrossed in all the forum's info. Peggy
