Understanding the World in Reception

This week we are going to be learning about animals on the Farm and how they grow.

Lesson 1- To know the names for the offspring animals In this set of lessons we will learn how animals grow. In this lesson with Miss Hughes, we will think about animals that live on a farm and learn to identify their offspring. At the end of the lesson, you will test your new knowledge by matching the baby animals to the adult animals.

Lesson 2- To know what farm animal offspring need to grow. In today's lesson, we join Miss Sidenius in learning about how farm animals grow, including what different farm animals need to grow. We end the lesson with a fun task creating some potato print chicks, just like you might see on a farm. To extend this lesson, you could talk about other baby animals that you might find on a farm.

Lesson 3- To sequence the life cycle of an animal In today’s lesson we join Mrs Garrard to learn about animal life cycles. We will learn vocabulary associated with life cycles and to end the lesson, we will make a representation of a baby animal.
