Here is a fun and engaging version of Eric Carle’s popular story The Hungry Caterpillar.\u00a0 It is aimed at P1-3 and involves a rap, chanting, actions and follow up literacy and science activities.<\/span><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Younger pupils can enjoy watching the story presented in a new way with rap
\nmusic whilst learning some actions and keeping the beat. There are further
\nactivities for phonics and the science of life cycles.<\/p>\n

Older pupils can also challenge themselves to learn and chant bits of the
\nrap and use the alliterative writing to stimulate creative writing of their own.<\/p>\n

There are interactive teaching videos and further activities you can use in your classroom.<\/p>\n
