What can you hear?

This week we are learning all about the sense of hearing.

So far we have discussed what makes a good listener, explored lots of different sounds on the discovery table and guessed every day what has been in our mystery box! Yesterday it was pasta and today most of us thought it was a ball - we could hear it rolling inside the box! When we opened the box, we saw that it was a marble!

Today we also played a listening game where we had to identify different sounds. After listening carefully we shared our ideas about what we had heard. Things we heard included a duck quacking, a guitar being played (well done to Dexter, who identified this straight away), someone skipping with a skipping rope, a lamb and ocean waves.

All this week we are going to be practising our listening skills. What sounds can you hear around you?
