Hi Grayling 1! We hope to see you for live literacy at 9 and phonics at 11 today. If you are unable to join us then please see the lessons below. Keep scrolling down for today’s history lesson all about toys in the past.

Literacy

Watch the video of the story of Jack and the Beanstalk.

Whilst it is playing or afterwards see if you can draw a quick story map.  You could do this on your whiteboard or a piece of paper.  Here is one that someone else has done.

Today we are going to focus on your reading. 

Please read the simple version of Jack and the Beanstalk to an adult and answer the questions at the end of the story. If the text is very challenging for your child please read it together – perhaps your child could finish some of the sentences or you could encourage them to read some of the simpler words in the story. You can answer these in your red book – you don’t need to copy out the questions just write the answers in a sentence.  

If you are reading green, orange or turquoise books at school then please read the challenging version to an adult.

When you have finished you could draw a picture in the space on the page in your book.

History

In this lesson, we will continue to learn about some of the ways in which toys have changed over time. We will learn how modern technology has affected the ways in which children play. We will then look at some examples of electronic and non-electronic games. You will need a piece of paper and a pencil.
