Description

Explore this approach with the children by letting them choose from a range of photos of different vegetables, remove a section and let the children fill in the missing area seamlessly with line drawing. BOOK OF THE MONTH - the much awaited latest installment in this popular diary-style series for ages 7+. She has worked alongside Pie Corbett to develop Talk for Writing in practice and deliver training to schools. Generate a storm of ideas with the children about the sounds they might hear walking through the town’s streets.

A warm-hearted adaptation of the well-known children’s book about a plucky guinea pig – Christopher Nibble.In the opening pages of the book we are introduced to the town of Dandeville and the lives of its guinea pig population. Just the mention of derring -do and the mental image of a brave young guinea pig on an adventure and, sadly, I was hooked.

He absolutely loves dandelions and there, outside his bedroom window, is what might be the last one. Let children choose where Christopher’s house would be, where they think Daisy Chain Hill is or the football pitch where Christopher loves to play. Written and illustrated by Charlotte Middleton and adapted for the stage by Claire Alizon Hills, Topsy Turvy Theatre, the company who brought you Ruby Flew Too! We asked the children what they thought the flowers would look like and encouraged them to make some pictures of how they imagined the flowers would look once in bloom. No doubt someone in school will have a pet guinea pig at home who may like to come in and visit the children.The guinea pigs of Dandeville love munching dandelion leaves so much that slowly but surely dandelions are disappearing from all over town. Christopher’s world is all about sustainability so ‘ recycling’ seemed to be the way forward and what better way to propel this guinea pig into the next story book, than with a recycled bicycle! Charlotte Middleton’s illustrations are superb and have such a sense of humor which makes them so engaging for children.

Some of the children used paints to do this as well as finding petals and leaves to stick on to create some really lovely pictures. Children can also create colorful dandelion landscapes using dandelion heads as paintbrushes, or wrapping paper with a dandelion pattern. It will delight your KS1 pupils and keep them engaged in cross curricular literacy for weeks on end. Christopher Nibble and his best friend Posie have been busy growing plants and food in their garden whilst taking care of their six hairy pet caterpillars.

Written and illustrated by Charlotte Middleton and adapted for the stage by Claire Alizon Hills, Topsy Turvy Theatre proudly present the charming Christopher Nibble in a tale of dandelion daring-do!

When reading the book with the children it is the perfect time to start thinking about Christopher’s character and what they think he should do at this point.When it has grown, he goes to the top of the hill and blows the seeds down so new dandelions grow for everybody. The guinea pigs gather together and hatch a plan to save Christmas… but everything they do seems to cause chaos and calamity. At school, Charlotte loved drawing and would regularly illustrate her spelling and times tables test papers.
