Remote learning for Thursday 7th Jan

Hi everyone. We are half way through this weeks remote learning. It's been quite a week. Here is todays learning.

Reading – Stone Age Boy

One of the amazing things that the author does in this book is switch genre (type of text). It goes from being a fiction book to a non-fiction book at some points.

Below are two pages from the book where this has happened. Look at them carefully then answer the questions underneath.

1. Why do you think the author has chosen to do this?

2. Do you think the boy would enjoy getting involved in the jobs that are shown? Why/why not? Explain your answer.

3. Make a table with two columns.

Into the first, put jobs that would only happen in the Stone Age. In the second put jobs that might happen now. Which one has the most? Why do you think this is?

Please also aim to read for 20mins per day. This can be any book, fiction or non fiction. Something from home that you all enjoy. 

English

In topic we are thinking about timelines; a time line is a line that starts at the very beginning of something and has all the parts marked on it in the order that they happen. 

Create a time line of the poem picking out key words or phrases  that create each image. This can be done with words and/or illustrations.
