Early Years Pancake Day: Oracy and Emergent Writing Resources Pack

Celebrate Pancake Day with young learners, exploring the toppings that they love to have on their pancakes. Pupils can use the cards to show what they might put on their pancake before designing and labelling their own toppings.

The resources could be used on or around Pancake Day to develop oracy and encourage emergent writing.

Included in the EYFS resource pack

• Pancake template
• Pancake topping cards
• Teacher notes with guidance on how the resources could be used in the classroom
