- Opening - "A Tooty Ta" from Dance Like This by Mr. Al
- Literacy activity flannelboard - Matching mother and baby animals
I found some "Animal and their young" matching card print outs on the Twinkl education resource website. I made multiple copies of the baby animals and handed them out to the children. When I put a mother animal on the board, the children with the corresponding baby animal would then place their card on the board.
