Who Hides Here? Footprints in the Forest

Beschreibung

A charming picture book with beautiful illustrations allowing children to discover which forest animals have made footprints in the countryside. Written with a sing-song rhythm and rhyme, children will delight in joining in with the grown-ups reading to them. The perfect introduction to tracking for very small children. This is a great way to educate children about the wonderful wildlife that lives in the the countryside across the British Isles. Also a great classroom resource to encourage children to explore forests and woodlands and learn about British wildlife, developing understanding and knowledge about the world around us. Can be used as part of the Early Years Curriculum for Science. The repetition of key phrases and the rhythm and rhyme help to create familiarity for babies whilst helping older children to memorise the words and join in. A great way to generate a love of reading. This book uses the Hide and Seek method to teach the children: for each animal, there is a picture of the animal's footprints, accompanied by a rhyming little verse with clues to the animal hiding on the next page. When the child turns the page they can see which animal it is. At the end of the book there are some fun little activities for the child to do related to the animals they have just found.

Autor

Rachel Coverdale was born and bred in the beautiful North Yorkshire countryside in North East England. Raised with copious amounts of animals but without the distraction of a modern TV set, she turned to books and her own imagination for entertainment. Animals were and still are a huge part of her life and inevitably they made their way into her stories. Believing strongly in fresh air, nature and outdoor play to give children a sense of fun and freedom, Rachel uses her books to encourage children to connect with nature and venture into the countryside. Having taught as an English teacher for many years and now settled happily into the role of school librarian, Rachel ensures all her books are not only creative, imaginative and exciting, but also of great educational benefit. Teaching resources and a scheme of work are available for some of her books. Rachel is regularly featured on BBC Radio Tees Book Hour with Bob Fischer and Shack, discussing and reviewing her latest reads. She also travels her native North East England paying visits to Primary and Secondary schools, giving talks on her books and about the importance of nature and the environment they live in.
