Today in understanding the world we looked at different types of telephones and discussed what we use telephones for, some of the children said they play games on their parents mobile phones and some said  they watch tv on them. We all looked at preschools telephone and phoned Mrs Murray to say hello and had a discussion around different types of telephones and why we might use them.
Investigating paper cup telephones is a classic and engaging way to explore the principles of sound and vibration in a very fun way, This encourages children to use descriptive language to talk to their  partners and
promotes turn-taking and listening skills through the activity.
