Water

by Carolyn Hewitson

Overview

This exciting topic-based series offers early years practitioners collections of activities based on familiar themes. The activities can be easily implemented and readily incorporated into curriculum planning through links made to the Foundation Stage curriculum.

Each book includes:

• activities that can be used on their own or as part of a themed program
• ideas for enjoying an all round curriculum approach
• guidance on expanding existing ideas and resources
• linked ideas to be carried out at home.

The activities in Water provide a good foundation for science awareness. The theme is popular with boys and girls and is particularly good for motivation. Because of the no-fail activities, it's particularly useful for SEN teaching.
