Anansi Stories

We choose some stories about Anansi each year for Black History Month. Anansi is part spider and part human and he is clever and often plays tricks on the other animals. Sometimes they manage to play tricks on him too! Every session at nursery - morning and afternoon - ends with a group story or song. Reading with children is fantastic and it's something we should do at school and at home every single day. The language of books is so rich and through hearing it, children will learn new words and ways of expressing thoughts and feelings. They will also learn about the wider world beyond their own experiences and find out about different places and people.
