I delivered four workshops at Ramsgate Arts school, two for Reception class and two for Year 1. The texts that we looked at were This is a Poem that Heals Fish by Jean-Pierre Siméon and 'Cool Rainforest Rain' by Maggie Harris. The children enjoyed some reading, some interactive presentations and some music and instruments.
