Literacy – Reading

Warm-Up

Choose a your own favourite storybook to read or read and listen to a story from this site

https://www.booktrust.org.uk/books-and-reading/have-some-fun/storybooks-and-games/

How many different characters can you remember from the story?

Main Activity

Choose one of the characters from the story. Describe what they look like (height, hair colour, clothes, facial expression) and what kind of character they are (helpful, greedy, shy etc) to someone.

Draw your character and label your drawing with some words to describe them.

Fun Finisher

Play the game ‘Who Am I’ with someone in your family to guess a character you are thinking about from the story.

• Choose a character (don’t tell anyone who it is).
• The adult asks a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ question (is it a person or animal, is it male or female, does he/she have dark hair etc).
• Swap places and the adult picks a character and you ask yes/no questions.
