Doing the Animal Bop!

This term in the Nursery, we are looking forward to sharing books written by the author Jan Ormerod and illustrated by Lindsey Gardiner - we hope you enjoy them too!

This is what we thought when we took a look at the front cover of 'Doing the Animal Bop! . . . 

Felicity - "Oh - it's got a cow in it, and a monkey and an ostrich!"

Alisha - "There's lots of animals"

We read the title and wondered what the 'Animal Bop' might be!

Felicity - "Bopping to music? - They are dancing!"

Ava - "Shall we find out and see? We could have a look in the book - we could read"

There certainly were a lot of animals . . . 

Esme - "It looks like they're dancing!"

Bailey - "The elephant one - he stomps!"

Ava - "I liked it when the rhino was dancing"

Felicity - "I liked it when the monkey was bopping!"

The children thought about what else they liked . . . 

Jessica - I liked the snake - because it makes a song"

Jacob - "I liked the cow part - because it was funny"

Alisha - "I liked the cow when it was mooing!"

We all joined in with that part!

Noah - "I liked the bit with the monkeys - it's funny - when they couldn't stop swinging"

Evie - "I liked the chicken cluck"

Evan W - "The elephant bit - the mouse on his trunk - that's why I like it"

Reece - "I've got a trunk!" (demonstrated with his arm)

Lottie - "I liked his feet - cause they were stomping. The trunk - elephants put water in their trunk and then they blow bubbles! And I like the patterns on his feet"

If you sometimes dance and you like to sing, the animal bop is just your thing. Jump and jiggle, jive and wriggle . . . this will make you laugh and giggle.

Join in the fun!
