M ake a Minibeast You are going to make a model of a minibeast. Work in small groups. Follow these instructions: 1. To make the dough - mix 3 cups of flour and 2 cups of salt in a large bowl. Add 1 cup of water and stir with a fork until a soft dough is formed. Sprinkle with flour and knead the mixture. (Add more water if the dough is dry.) 2. Use the dough to make a minibeast model. Roll the dough and cut off a piece to make the body. Use a little water to attach body parts. 3. Put foil on a baking tray and place your model on top. Cook your minibeast in the oven for about an hour (longer for larger creatures). Let it cool. Paint your model. Now record the activity on this 'Procedure' framework.

M inibeast Matching Game • This barrier game is played with a partner. • Each child is given a copy of the set of cards to cut out. • A barrier is placed between the players. • Child One chooses one card. • Child Two must identify the card from their own set by listening as Child One describes those characteristics their chosen minibeast does not have; for example, it does not have patterned wings. It does not have antennae. • Child Two checks their cards and removes those cards which match the criteria given. • When only one card remains, Child Two reveals their card to see if it matches that originally selected by Child One. • Reverse roles and play again. ©R.I.C.
