Reception - Rainforest explorers

The rainforest has continued to be a favourite topic of discussion in Reception this week. It has been amazing to see the children learn facts and retain new information each new day. They have used vocabulary such as ‘equator’, ‘canopy’, ‘humid’ and ‘tropics’ and have shown a great interest in the animals that live in the different layers. We made our own sleepy sloths during the carousel afternoon and thought about what we would hear, see, feel, smell and taste if we were to take a trip to the rainforest. We finished off our week with our 'fun day' where we made keyrings and party hats and had our own little disco boogie on Friday afternoon.
