Fun filled week learning all about Minibeasts! 🕷

30th Apr 2026
We have been having lots of interesting and engaging Learning through Play tasks on our topic 'Minibeasts' this week.

The children have had the opportunity to experience:
  • modelling spiders using playdoh and various arts and crafts materials
  • threading the spiders legs
  • singing Incy Wincy Spider
  • using flashcards to learn about new minibeasts and expand our vocabulary
  • drawing butterflies (an opportunity to mark make) 
  • reading about Minibeasts; Superworm sensory story and 10 little ladybirds
  • watching and learning some Makaton through Singing Hands - 'If I were a Minibeast'
  • counting minibeasts and looking at all their wonderful colours
It has been a fun filled and busy week. Well done to everyone as each pupil has taken part and developed lots of new skills.
