Good morning Year 1 and Year 2.  

Welcome to the start of a new week of learning.  Our theme this week is 'animals'.  Your learning about animals will be in pack 1.   Today we are going to think about information texts so try to think about the features such as photographs, sub headings etc.

Philosophy for the week; talk to your grown ups about........

Can any animal be a pet?

Should some animals never be kept as pets?

What sort of microhabitat would it be suited to? For example, damp shady area, grassy area, pond area or stony area.  Why would it be suited to that area? 

  • Make a bug hotel by cutting a melon in half and hollowing it out in the middle. Carve an opening and then place it in your garden and check each morning to see if any bugs have checked into your hotel.   

 

Literacy extension (only if you would like to) – have a look at the Animal Alliteration Poem.  Can you write an animal alliteration poem like this one?
