This week in Reception, we have been thinking about how to ask BIG questions! We first thought about what a question was, and how a question is asked when you want to find the answer to something. BIG questions are always very tricky to answer and take lots of thinking. This represents the beginning of our P4C (Philosophy for Children) journey at school!

| Today, our enquiry followed a fun story all about animals travelling on human transportation! |
"Well you would need a special elephant bed!" responded Nellie.
Ralph quickly added "but that might break!"
Aidan added to Ralph's point by suggesting "if it's a grown up elephant, it might smash through the roof!"
After some suggestions that maybe a baby elephant might be a good pet instead, Zoe had another thought, saying "but babies grow to full size, to big children! Maybe a good pet would be a snake, or a dog! That would fit in your house!"
The children loved discussing this question and we all found that we had different ideas to contribute and could offer lots of different opinions and thoughts.
