Guest Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 Hi, Just been told today that we are abandoning what the MTP says and we are going to do autumn / harvest next week. Does anyone know of any books that might tie in with this before i go rooting through the book cupboards!! Thank you!! Tink! x
Guest Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 Hi Some of the percy the park keeper books are themed around autumn and we have been doing harvest this week and based our work around a book called Olivers vegetables.
JacquieL Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 As Wolfie recommends 'The Little Red Hen' is perfect. You can made bread, provide items to make the mill, use corn for the children to grind the seeds etc. Re-enact the story and the children can build the mill, and for literacy make signs etc.
Guest Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 I've got a lovely book called "The Prickly Hedgehog" it's about the hedgehog family who go for a walk, little one gets seperated and looks for the family - he sees lots of things he thinks are his family - conkers, mushrooms etc and when he eventually finds them they are on his back and they eat them! Really cute slant on Harvest/ Autumn?
Deb Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 How about Pumpkin Soup - beautiful illustrations.

Aunt Sally Posted October 16, 2008 Posted October 16, 2008 Last year I did 'The Leaf Man' 'Ferdie and the falling Leaves.' The Leaf Man is a fantistic book and I would recommend it to anyone. The illustrations are gorgeous and i got some fantastic responses from my SEN children. We went for an Autumn walk and made our own leaf men. http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0...ebookdeposi-21/
