Activity suggestions
My body
Working in a small group, draw round one child on a large piece of paper. With the help of reference books, ask the children to label as many body parts as possible. The sheet can then be used for individual vocabulary reinforcement and as an assessment activity.
My Happy and Healthy
Use an enlarged version of Mr Happy and Healthy as an introduction to a class topic
