Today we’re thinking about colours so let's sing the Rainbow song

Makaton Rainbow song

Can you remember what animal we’ve been going to hunt last week? Dinosaurs!

Dinosaurs were lots of different colours. Lets read a colourful dinosaur book and see if we can spot the colourful dinosaurs….

What Colour is a Dinosaur?

Let's sing a counting dinosaurs song

10 little dinosaurs

Let’s play a dinosaur colouring game together

All our dinosaurs have got mixed up! Can you help sort them out? 

Can you match the dinosaur colours to the correct colour pot?

I have a story about a special dinosaur called a triceratops, can you say triceratops. You can always spot a triceratops as it has 3 horns, let’s count the horns together, 1, 2, 3.

Dinosaur Stomp Dance-A-Long

So much stomping today! 

Let’s find our toy dinosaurs and shall we put their feet in some brown muddy paint and then stomp our dinosaurs all over the paper. 

Can you see the footprints left behind, what shape are they?

Wow! We are having so much fun exploring Dinosaurs. 

You know, Dinosaurs are all very different!

Some are fast and some are slow. Some are big and some are small. Some are friendly, and others are a bit scary! 

Let’s have a look at this book. All about the differences in Dinosaurs.

I wonder… Do you think you can pretend to be like the dinosaurs? Let's follow these action dances and see what Dinosaurs we can be:

Dinosaur Freeze Dance

The Dinosaur Dance

Dinosaur Yoga

Dinosaurs are so much fun. I wonder what adventures they might go on. Maybe we could use our small world Dinosaurs and go on some adventures of our own! Will they get messy down in the swamp, or go out for dinner in our Rugby School Restaurant. 

Let's sing our song about how we feel.

If Your Happy, Happy, Happy

What did we do in the song when we were angry or mad? STOMP OUR FEET!

Here’s a story about what dinosaurs do when they get mad:

How Do Dinosaurs Say I’m Mad? (video)

How Do Dinosaurs Say I'm Mad? (book)

What did the dinosaur do at the end of the story? He took a deep breath and counted to 10, let's practice counting our breaths together. 

Do you remember what our action was in the song when we were mad? 

STOMPING. 

Lets help our dinosaur stomp in playdough.

 What did he do to calm down? He took deep breaths and tidied up. 

Can you roll the playdough into a ball and make it smooth again? 

Let’s check out our Makaton Signs for the week: Hats, Sunglasses & Suncream:
