Main Task

• Here are two videos of one of our favourite books that we read in class – ‘Giraffes Can’t Dance’ by Giles Andrea.  The first one is the story being read and the second one is an animated version.  Watch both if you like!

After you have read / watched it can you write a story map about it?  You can draw the setting and the characters and then write a sentence or two each about something that happens at the beginning, the middle and the end of the story.

Remember to use capital letters at the beginning of a sentence and full stops at the end.

Can you use a joining word?

 

Extra Challenge

Write a sentence about your favourite part of the book and why it is your favourite part.

 

Fun Finisher

Here is a song version of the story for you to listen to.  Can you join in with the rhymes?
