K2 children have just learnt about fungi and different parts of a mushroom. Mushrooms were brought in for the children to observe; children used magnifying glasses to look at the mushrooms closely and they smell and touch them too.

After the observation activity, the story ‘Mushroom in the rain’ was read to the children. Children have enjoyed the story and were excited when told that we were going to dramatize the story out. Before the dramatization, we had a discussion on the props and materials needed. After that, the children helped to draw, paint, cut and paste the necessary props.
