Secret Number (Game for 2 Players)
Aim: To guess a secret number by asking questions.
Choose a player to start, you may have to Facetime your friend to play this game or play with someone at home. They choose a number in secret and write it down. You can ask them questions but they can only answer yes or no. Think about helpful questions: – Is it larger/smaller than …? – Does it have 6 as one of its digits? – Is the units digits smaller than the tens digit? How many questions did it take to work out the secret number? Swap so the other person chooses the secret number. Can you guess their number in fewer questions?
Literacy: I can write from a different point of view
Starter:
Watch Chapter 19 “Rockabye Baby”. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSn1iP_ZmIE
Answer these questions orally.
- What did Dad tell the Doctor?
- How did Doc Spencer react to the news?
- How did Mrs. Clipstone plan to deliver the pheasants?
- What went wrong with the plan?
Activity:
What would it have been like for the baby when the pheasants started flying out from underneath? What about the pheasant’s point of view? Explain what happened as Mrs Clipstone tried to deliver the pheasants to Danny, William and Doc Spencer. Choose either the baby or the pheasant and write their point of view in your jotter.
Here are some examples to help you or even get you started:
I was having a lovely walk with Mummy. She had made my pram extra comfortable and cushiony and I was very happy. Suddenly, I felt something wriggling under my bottom! Then something pecked at my nappy! I started to cry. Next something even stranger happened…
Or
The last thing I remembered was roosting in a tree in Hazell’s Wood. So when I woke up in a dark, warm place I was astonished. Something was bumping me up and down- and another something was squashing me! I felt groggy and stupid and started to wriggle. I had to find some fresh air!
*Optional Challenge*
Write from both the baby’s and pheasant’s point of view.
Plenary:
If you can, discuss with someone at home, what you think Victor Hazell’s point of view would be if he was to drive into the filling station just as Mrs Cliptone arrives with her “perambulator” or pram.
Remember keep washing those hands, stay safe, be good for the people you live with and remember this won’t be forever!
