Today we are going to join Unicorn and Haggis to look at a particular kind of book.

  • Watch and listen to the clip below.

  • What kind of book is this?
  • Is this book fiction or non-fiction?
  • How do you know?
  • Look for all the punctuation marks in the book.
  • Can you find capital letters, full stops, question marks, exclamation marks or commas?

  • Last week we found some rhyming words in the book. Today try to think of 3 more rhyming words of your own for:

  •  Record them in your jotter like this e.g.:
  • 1. cake – take    bake    rake
  • 2. need
  • 3. add
  • 4. can

 

  • What other ingredients or toppings would you add to a cake to make it even more tasty? e.g. fruit, nuts, chocolate chips etc.
