The Owl who was Afraid of the Dark, Chapter 6

Good morning Primary 2! We hope you’re all well and enjoying the snow.

Here is Chapter 6 of our story:

For an extra task, have a chat to your grown about your favourite character that Plop has met so far. If you want, draw a picture of them and share it with your teacher. Think about:

  1. Who is the character?
  2. Why do you like them?
  3. Think of three adjectives (describing words) for them.

Take care,

Mrs McGilp and Mrs Lloyd

The Owl who was Afraid of the Dark Chapter 5

Hello everyone

We hope you are enjoying the story. You can listen to chapter 5 and talk about these ideas.

1. The girl had one end of her sketch book for daytime creatures and the other end for nighttime creatures. Which creatures would you draw at the front and the back if you had a sketch book?

2. The hedgehog is  prickly and Plop is fluffy. Think of another creature and describe how it feels.

3. A few characters in the story asked Plop to screech. They liked the way it sounds. You can listen to birdsong on this website.

The Owl who was Afraid of the Dark, Chapter 4

Hello Primary 2,

We hope you’re all well and have been enjoying the snow.

Here is Chapter 4 of our story.

Talk to your grown up about who Plop has met so far.

Who said dark is kind?  Who  said dark is fun? Who said dark is exciting? Who said dark is necessary?  For an extra activity, draw the different characters in your jotter or use this worksheet to help you.

Take care,

Mrs McGilp and Mrs Lloyd

Chapter 3 ‘The Owl who was Afraid of the Dark’

Hello Primary 2

Here is chapter 3 of ‘The Owl who was Afraid of the Dark’.
We hope you have been enjoying listening to the story about Plop.
Here are some activities you can do if you choose.
While sitting in the dark Plop spent some time remembering fireworks so that he wouldn’t feel lonely. What do you like to remember? Talk about a special time.
Dark is Fun! Can you read these rhyming words?
bun, fun, gun, nun, pun, run, sun, shun and stun
Can you make up some nonsense words (words that aren’t real words) such as ‘lun’
‘Campfires are fun’, said Plop. Think about how to keep safe around a camp-fire. Perhaps make a safety poster.
