Early Years Foundation Stage workshop options:

There will be two sessions per day 9.45 – 12pm and 12.30-2.45pm  and we are encouraging people to book on Mondays and Tuesdays for sessions with our specialists Early Years storytellers. But these days are flexible and we can arrange other suitable days if this isn’t convenient.

The workshops are designed to support early learning goals across the EYFS framework, including providing opportunities for listening and speaking, movement and handling, understanding the world, exploring materials and being imaginative.

Visual Arts – Children revisit the ‘Chocolate Cake’ poem, and create their own cake using a range of playful art materials.

Music – Children learn about percussion, and explore storytelling through sounds in ‘We’re Going on a Bear Hunt’.

Drama and Movement – Children learn about different journeys in Michael Rosen’s poems, and create their own large scale floor map to explore the theme through movement and mime.

Creative writing – Working as a class, children create their own performance poem exploring the characters and settings in Michael Rosen’s work.
