Book Talk

Use the Book Talk resources between the beginning of March and the end of June. The book chosen for Book Talk this year is The Jellyfish Jiggle by Caryl Hart and Nicola Slater, adaptation by Megan Angharad Hunter and Llinos Dafydd. You will receive a bilingual copy of the book and a set of high quality, interactive resources for every child registered to take part in the Pori Drwy Stori Nursery programme.

Organise and use the resources in the way that suits your school or setting best. We recommend that that you spread the activities out over several weeks. Please use the online Practitioner Guide and the delivery letter included in your parcel to help you plan how and when you will use the activities.
