Before we start our work next week on learning a warning story. I am going to ask the children to write a story (without any help) so I can see what they will need help with throughout the unit. 

I would like the story to be about some animals escaping from the zoo. I will explain that in a warning story something goes wrong that needs to be put right and a lesson is learned at the end so it doesn't happen again. So we will talk briefly about why the animals might have escaped - whose fault might it be? Then I will ask the children to write a story about this all on their own. (If this could be emailed to school it will help me to plan for next week)

Science

Lesson 2 - Use of everyday materials

Recap from last lesson - how many different materials can you think of?

This Materials and their uses (clip compilation) - KS1 Science - BBC Bitesize might help to give you some ideas. Now talk about their properties - this mat might help

How many of each material can you find around your home? Use the chart below to go around your home and record a tally each time you see something made of each material. When you have found your totals, see if you can answer the questions.

Which material did you find the most of?

Which material did you find the least of?

Were there any materials you didn’t find at all?
