Body parts are discussed and educators can assess the learners’ auditory perception, spatial orientation and sequencing skills.

These sounds are also taught.
The Wops family live in the forest, have no amenities like electricity and spacious homes.
They live a life dependant on nature; fruit and berries, etc. They therefore look after their habitat. We should follow their example and care for our environment.
Although the Wops have no earthly riches they are warm, friendly and helpful. People do not have to be rich to gain our friendship. Be sensitive towards people who have different cultures and who lead different kinds of lives.
Everyone has the right to have shelter and food. Children should be cared for by their parents.
Educator questions the learners.

Wise Old Owl.
Willy has many friends in the forest. He plays with all the other Wop children. Sometimes they quarrel, but Mummy and Daddy have taught him that quarrelling and fighting with friends is not the way to behave. Willy tries hard to be friendly and polite to everyone, even to his family.
Willy loves the creatures of the forest, except of course the sly old foxes who steal their food and frighten Willy and his friends. Willy loves to listen to Mr Mole's stories about his travels, and he and Walter the warthog play for hours in the forest, visiting all their secret hide-outs. Willy has a pet, Licky Lizard, who sits on Willy's shoulder and goes everywhere Willy goes.
All the Wops are very fond of the wise old owl. He doesn't talk much but his ears are always wide open. He sees everything and he knows everything. When the Wops have a problem, they always ask the wise old owl. He has a solution for any problem.
Perhaps we also love our family and friends as much as Willy loves his. We are going to hear more stories about Willy's adventures and I am sure you are going to wish that you could sometimes visit Willy in the forest. I'll ask him if you may.
