Theme-Space and aliens
Introduction- show The Ben and Holly cartoon of the alien coming in a space rocket to get the Wise Old Elf to fix their planet.
Development- discuss what the characters saw on the journey in space to the alien’s home planet. Focus the pupils’ attention on all the stars the characters saw.
A range of subjects can now be explored such as maths (2d shape star and its’ properties)
Art-use tin foil to collage a template of a star. Cut out all the pupils’ stars and make a display of Ben and Holly’s journey.
Geography- Look inside Space book by Usborne
The possibilities are infinite (just like space!!!)
