This afternoon is a creative and physical afternoon, I would like you to start with a PE session by Callum from ‘TWWG’ please log onto his you tube channel and subscribe to today’s session.
Below I have attached some images of the Harp for you to have a look at.
Once you have listened to some of the harp music from the clips above you will be making your own harps from the resources that have been provided by school. You can decorate these however you would like, have fun.
Today, you will be creating a wanted poster for the ‘bird like space-being’ that attacks the Earth in Chapter 4. See image below.
‘On the fifth night, the astronomers saw that it seemed to be either a bat, or a
black angel, or a flying lizard – a dreadful silhouette, flying out of the center of that
giant star, strait towards the earth. What was coming out of the giant star?’
‘Terribly black, terribly scaly, terribly knobbly, terribly horned, terribly hairy,
terribly clawed, terribly fanged, with vast indescribably terrible eyes, each one as big
as Switzerland. There it sat, covering the whole of Australia, its tail trailing away over
Tasmania into the sea, its foreclaws on the headlands of the Gulf of Carpentaria’.
‘But the next morning, early, its giant voice came rumbling round the world.
The space-bat-angel-dragon was speaking. It wanted to be fed. And what it wanted to
eat was – living things. People, animals, forests, it didn’t care which, so long as the
food was alive. But it had better be fed quickly, otherwise it would roll out its tongue
longer than the Trans-Siberian railway, and lick huge swathes of life off the surface of
the earth – cities, forests, farmlands, whatever there was. It would leave the world
looking like a charred pebble – unless it were fed and fed quickly’.
I have attached 2 templates for you to look over an understand the layout of a wanted poster. You must include:

SLOGAN – (WANTED DEAD OR ALIVE, WANTED FOR GOOD BEHAVIOUR, BRING BACK ALIVE, HAVE YOU SEEN THIS PERSON)
Today you will be making your own rock bag using the resources that school have provided. This rock bag could be used by David to hold the rocks used to defeat Goliath.
Reaching into his pouch he pulled out a stone, put it into his slingshot and shot it at Goliath. The stone had hit him right between his eyes and suddenly Goliath started to loose his balance. He fell with a loud thud right on his face. David had done it, he beat the giant Philistine!
Below are 2 images of what the rock bag may look like.
Please watch the YouTube clip for instructions on how to make your rock bag.
Please be careful with sharp scissors and ask a parent or carer to help and supervise. You can decorate the pouch by adding beads, glitter, buttons etc if you have any items at home but these are not essential.
Today you will be writing a letter of apology to the Iron Man. In Chapter 3, Hogarth regrets trapping the Iron Man in the pit. He says,
“We’re sorry we trapped you and buried you,” shouted the little boy. “We
promise we’ll not deceive you again. Follow us and you can have all the metal you
want. Brass too. Aluminium too. And lots of old chrome. Follow us.”
You need to imagine you are Hogarth; you are feeling very guilty about trapping the Iron Man in the pit. Write a letter to express how you feel. Remember to explain why you believe you need to say sorry and how you intend to make up for your actions. Here is an example of the layout of an informal letter (click image to enlarge):
Use the image below to help you write your letter. Remember to say who your letter is to, why your are writing your letter and make sure you say who it is from at the end. Click image to enlarge.
Remember to send a copy of your work through the class Dojo to Myself or Mis Kerr as we both have access to both classes. Or to the class email:
Today you will be creating a job application for the Iron Man. You need to include persuasive language to offer his services. You need to think about his skills and abilities, and tell me why he should be hired and what he could would be useful for.
