World Book Day

(World Book Day Link to live author events at 10.30)


Take some time today to talk about books with your family. 

What are your favourites? Why? Is there a type of book or story you like best? 

Do you have a favourite author? Who and why? 

What do you like about reading/books?

Diana Whittington Boxing up to help the children remember the changes. 

I would like the children to write the first half of the Diana Whittington story today (opening, build up, problem if time), it is important that they only change what I have suggested (character and animals) so that they are still using the structure and vocabulary from the original story in their own writing. (That is why we learned the story by heart - so encourage them to keep retelling the story and using the actions)

Remember to use the Word Banks that you made in Tuesday's lesson to help you with tricky spellings.

(Next week at school, I promise they can use all the wonderful ideas I know they will have, to change the story further and make it their own, for now I want them to write my changed story)

Missing doing your TT Rockstars at school?

TT Rockstars have brought out a new game called Jamming where you can choose which times tables you want to work on. 

You can choose the number. 

You can choose multiplication or division or both, just like at school. 

There's no timer either so you can do it at your own pace and then work on speed after. 

Why don't you have a go now on whatever number you are on at school and in no time you'll be moving on!

If you've forgotten your password or username just email me and I'll let you know what it is. 

Have fun!

I would like the children to box up the story so they can see how Dick Whittington is made up of a beginning, build up, problem, resolution and ending. Here is a blank boxing up grid which shows the different parts of a  "change" story. The children don't need to write the whole story, just a few words/ phrases/sentences to show what part Dick Whittington links with each section.

Boxing up for Dick Whittington 

Mrs Burton's Boxing up (for parents only if needed)

Once finished, children need to start to think about what parts of the Dick Whittington story we could change to make our own stories. Tomorrow, Mrs Burton will change just a few small things in the story for you to write about and then next week at school, the children will get the chance to make other changes to the story.

At last, you get chance to read the Dick Whittington story you have been learning.

Once you have read it a few times, I want you to pick out the words that are tricky spellings - ones that you might not be able to spell on your own and create a word bank for yourself (a list of words you need help to spell) so you can look at this when you are writing your own story. You can use this Blank word bank or make your own

I would like the children to add adjectives, conjunctions and extra detail to these 3 sentences to make them better.

(You might want to quickly remind yourselves of some adjectives and conjunctions that you could use before you start so you can try to use different ones)

Dick Whittington lived in a forest.

The rats were everywhere.

Last half term we looked at everyday materials, this half term we will work scientifically with these to learn more

We want you to gather 10 different everyday objects from around your house, try and get things made from different materials, then really look at them and think about the different ways they can be sorted and grouped. Don't just sort by material - really look at how they feel, how they look, what they are used for. 

Remember some of the words we used to describe the properties last half term

Can you sort by any of the words?

You could use sorting circles or tables with boxes or just piles to sort them. Find as many ways as you can to group your objects.
