- The children are involved in a talk about the difference between living
and non-living things.
- The group is prompted to think about things which living animals’ do
(moving, breathing, 5 senses, feeding, going to the toilet, having babies,
growing). As the class suggests each of these, a child comes to the front to
hold a cartoon showing the activity.
- They then see a collection of poultry eggs of different sizes, from quail
to ostrich.
- The children learn about chick development with the aid of slides and the
story 'Rosie's Chick'
- Chicks at various stages of development are brought in for the children to
see and touch.
- The group is introduced to another animal, depending on what is available
on the farm at that time, but usually a lamb or a rabbit.
- The children are prompted to remember to wash their hands just as the
session ends.
