Another Mother

We spent two weeks doing a number of activities based on the book Another Mother by Jill Eggleton. It is a delightful story all about an emu chick who discovered the hard way that her mother is the best with her wibbly wobbly neck and snuggy wuggly feathers. 

We wrote our own version of the story...

We made posters in groups, where we compared baby humans with baby birds. The children had to sort out the information and match the pictures. It was their first experience of group work and I was so impressed.

Last Friday we wrote some reasons why we wouldn't want another mother. They are up in the classroom if you would like to pop in and read them. Some of the reasons are so sweet!
