This week we are going to be learning the rhyme 1-2-3-4-5

• Do you eat fish?
• What do fish have that allows them to stay in the water?

Re read the story of The Rainbow Fish.

In the story the Rainbow Fish learns he can make friends by sharing his special shiny scales. What do you have that you can share with your friends? This doesn’t have to be an object, it could be a hug, or your favourite joke for example.
