Reception Past and Present

Date: 29th Feb 2024 @ 11:16am

The children in Reception were invited to bring their favourite teddy bear into school.  As a class we talked about our teddies, what they were called. what they looked like and why they were special to us.  We discussed how teddy bears have changed over time, comparing teddy bear in the past to teddy bears in the present day.  Mrs Clark showed us her mum's teddy bear which was sixty years old.  We then sorted the different pictures of teddy bears into past and present.
