Seahorse’s Jigsaw lesson today was all about food, glorious food! We chatted about healthy and unhealthy food, then prepared and ate our own healthy sandwiches! They were ‘delicious’ and ‘tasty’.
We LOVE the ‘Hairy Maclary’ books in our class, so in this week‘s Story Club we read a few of his stories and made our own Hairy Maclary picture!
