Whatever Next

Overview

In this great Jill Murphy novel, the learners will take the bear on his journey to space with lots of fun activities linked to the story.

They’ll dribble their ball close to them whilst playing the game ‘find the bear’s clothes’ before taking off into the sky. During the story, they’ll play the fun dribbling game ‘Dodge the Owl’ and then eat food on the moon in the game ‘Picnic Time!’ After their adventure to the moon, the learners will dribble in and out of cones in the game ‘All the way back home’.

To finish, the learners will get themselves nice and clean (just like the bear does in the story!) in the game ‘Bath Time!’ where they compete against each other to try and dribble the ball to the target.
