Begin to understand that animals are different (e.g. reptiles and mammals) and need different things. Use everyday language to talk about size, weight, capacity, position, distance, time and money to compare quantities and objects and to solve problems. After briefly recapping on children's predictions from the previous lesson, you will read the book together. Children are encouraged to share both their opinions and understanding of the story, before retelling it in their independent activities, with the aid of picture prompts. In the alternative activity suggested, children show their understanding of the story through writing a book review.A little boy goes to a pet sale (where all the pets are so reasonably priced!) to find the perfect animal. He meets a rat first who pesters him throughout the story to buy him as the perfect pet. A story teaching you that no matter how small and seemingly plain, you are just as interesting as a komodo dragon...

A young boy walks into a pet shop, a little brown rat is confident that he is much more interesting that the plethora of exotic animals this shop sells. Show sensitivity to others’ needs and feelings, and form positive relationships with adults and other children. Look after the newly arrived class pet, listen to a vet, discuss how vets help animals, role-play being a vet, weigh pets, measure out ‘medicine’ and bandage injuries. Thanks to Aimee Middleton (@AimeeSarah87) for pointing me in the direction of these two great stories (One is a Snail Ten is a Crab is below).The sign in the pet shop window says "Everything must go". "Everything" refers to an incredible assortment of animals from tiny terrapin at two pence each to a great big dragon for 25 pence. There's also a one-whiskered rat, a bargain for only a penny, who is determined to be bought. Listen to stories, accurately anticipating key events and respond to what is heard with relevant comments, questions or actions.

Think of reasons why their pet is special and explain these to the class using an expanded sentence. Be confident when speaking in a familiar group, talk about ideas, and choose the resources needed for the chosen activity. most obvious of these is that the total value of all the pets for sale in the shop is one pound. This means it can be used as a starting point for money activities with children working with money up to the value of a pound. Count reliably with numbers from 1 to 20, say which number is one more or one less than a given number.In this lesson, you will share and discuss the events of the book, The Great Pet Sale, with your class! The above video may be from a third-party source. We accept no responsibility for any videos from third-party sources. Please let us know if the video is no longer working. To enjoy a story, discuss ideas and make predictions. Talk with confidence about their own experiences. The story is full of wonderful opportunities for developing mathematical thinking and the maths box I have put together is well worn! I have used it in maths activities and lessons with children from Foundation Stage to Y4 in a variety of ways – at the beginning of lessons to set the context for work with money, in the main part of the lesson using the ‘pets’ for differentiated money or problem solving activities and in plenaries as a novel summary of the mathematical thinking in the lesson. I have linked the ideas with play opportunities in a class ‘pet shop’ or ‘vets’ in the role-play area.
