Rob and his amazing puppets visited our school last week and we watched his interactive show Tales from the Farmyard.
It was a magical, musical affair which captivated all of the children and supported their listening and attention skills as well as their retrieval and inference skills.
Children were able to use their existing knowledge of classic songs like Old MacDonald and stories such as The Little Red Hen to join in and understand what was happening.
It was also a wonderful opportunity to pre-teach concepts and vocabulary about the farm which the nursery children will explore further in the spring term, and consolidate the reception children’s knowledge.
