Reading and Responding

Please look at the plans I have sent you on email.

Reception - Please choose an activity from the ones around Owl Babies.

Year 1- Do you know any of the Mr Men and Little Miss characters? Today you are going to meet some and then choose one of your favourites. Make a character profile poster by drawing a picture of them and then write some sentences which describe their appearance, what they like/dislike and anything else you find out about

Year 2 - We love Oliver Jeffers stories, we have read quite a few together before lockdown. Today have a listen to How To Catch A Star and then imagine you are the boy in the story. Your task is to write a letter to an astronomer (someone who studies stars and space) asking them for help to catch a star.

Don’t forget to choose your own topic learning today. If you'd like to do the suggested learning on BBC Bitesize you can learn about Elizabeth Fry on the Year 2 page. Elizabeth Fry worked for what she believed was right and so that some of the poorest people, facing the hardest of times, could hope for a better life. Find out how she did this. Or you could learn about the life, actions and achievements of Mohandas Gandhi on the Year 1 page.

Have a great day!
