English Home Learning Week Commencing 9th November

Our class text is ‘George’s Marvellous Medicine’. I hope that you have been able to either read a copy of the book or listen to it on You Tube: https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=georges+marvellous+medicine&adlt=strict&view=detail&mid=BA8FEB9622F320F72938BA8FEB9622F320F72938&&FORM=VRDGAR&ru=%2Fvideos%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dgeorges%2Bmarvellous%2Bmedicine%26FORM%3DHDRSC3

Monday

Here are some questions to ask your child about the story:

Questions to ask George:
How do you feel when you are left alone
with Grandma?
Why do you think Grandma is so grumpy all
the time?
Why do you think Grandma speaks to you
the way she does?
Why did you run into the kitchen and slam
the door?
If you could describe your Grandma in three
words, what would they be?

Questions to ask Grandma:
Why are you so grumpy all the time?
Why do you sit in that chair by the window?
Why do you say cruel things to George?
What is your medicine for?
If you could describe your grandson in three
words, what would they be?

 

Talk about the book with your child and discuss their answers. Encourage your child to write their answers in full sentences.

Tuesday

We have been learning about adjectives (describing words) in class. Look at these and circle the adjectives which could describe Grandma and underline the adjectives which could describe George:

Wednesday

Write a description of George. You could use some of the adjectives you sorted yesterday. Remember to start every sentence with a capital letter and a full stop.

Thursday

Write a character description of Grandma, again you could use some of the adjectives you circled on Wednesday.

Friday

Complete the quiz on Purple Mash based on this weeks spellings (they are under the spelling tab)

Well done, we have got to the end of the school year.  Normally we would have issued award certificates and had class and whole school celebrations to mark the end of the year.  Today, I would like you to create your own awards certificate, use your imagination, be creative and make it special to you.  Then ask a member of your household to complete your certificate, writing on it why they are awarding you this certificate.  Finally, have a picture taken of you receiving your certificate, be proud of what you have achieved!

You all deserve a certificate for your efforts throughout the school year, especially during lockdown.  Well done everyone!  Please do send a picture so we can see why you have been awarded your certificate.

Wednesday 15th July English Home Learning

Good morning Lawley and Caradoc!

I hope you are all keeping well and safe.

Please complete your daily reading and why not write a book review to tell us about the book you have read, it’s great seeing what you have enjoyed or not enjoyed about a book.


Next, please take part in the daily Read Write Inc Set 2 or 3 phonics session which you will find on YouTube.

This week we are going to be focusing on Stick Man by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler.


To start with, please listen to the story which is being read by one of the authors – Axel Scheffler. If you have the book at home, why not read alongside Axel!

Today we are going to concentrate on the feelings Stick Man experiences throughout the story.  There are many different feelings experienced at different times during his adventure, we can see these through the illustrations in the book.  During a day we ourselves can experience many different feelings, and this is exactly what happens to Stick Man.

I want you to think about these different feelings, why you think he is feeling these and what Stick Man looks like to make you associate that feeling at that time.  Throughout the story, Stick Man may feel:

  • happy
  • lonely
  • scared
  • angry
  • excited
  • sad

I have attached a template below, or you can create your own. Please remember to use:

  • capital letters
  • full stops
  • phonics for spelling
  • finger spaces
  • neat handwriting

Stick Man’s feelings

Cheeky Challenge: Are there any other feelings Stick Man has experienced?  How do you know?
