Wednesday

To plan and orally rehearse ideas.

Today we are going to plan our very own story ready to write and be authors tomorrow!

We are going to be choosing two different animals.

These can be any animals and don't have to be from the original story.

Have a look at these pictures below for some ideas for the new characters.

You are going to draw one character o post it notes and stick that over the blue boxes. Then you will do the same with another new character for the orange boxes.

Next, you are going to draw a new problem and solution.

When you have finished, practice your story, ready to write it independently tomorrow.

To be able to add by counting on.

Now complete pages 33 - 36.
