CLL ideas needed! (Minibeast topic)

[Guest emz_m1]

Hi all

 

We are focusing on minibeasts this half term - I love this topic, but have not done this topic for some years now in Reception.

I am stuck on CLL ideas, apart from the usuals (re-tell a story and information writing).

I would ideas to grip and hold the children's attention.

We are focusing on a minibeast a week. We read Hungry Caterpillar this week (which they loved) and already have had some nice work from it.

 

Any ideas will be appreciated.

hungry caterpillar - write a shopping list to feed the caterpillar

the bad tempered ladybird is another story that might be useful

What learning objective do you need to teach ? This would narrow down your search for ideas. :1b

for the bad tempered ladybird - you could link with feelings - when do children get bad tempered and write about this or write a conversation between the friendly ladybird and the bad tempered ladybird
