Good Morning Primary 1!

I have attached a short video clip for you to watch this morning.

Can you guess the story we are acting out?

To help children to write stories they need  to hear stories, tell stories and read stories. So today’s writing task has three options which you can pick from.

Option 1: Choose a story and act it out using puppets or props. Someone could record you and you could send to your Primary 1 teacher to see if they can guess the story.

If you feel this is a suitable task for your child then your child should be encouraged to draw or write what they can and perhaps write/draw a list of props/puppets they require to retell the story.

Option 2: Choose a story and make adaptions to the story. You could adapt the characters in the story or what happens in the story by changing either the start the middle or the end.

If you feel this is a suitable task for your child then your child should draw and write one sentence or more to change the story they have picked.

Option 3:  You can create and write your own story and then act it out using puppets or props.

If you feel this is a suitable task for your child then they should be encouraged to draw a detailed drawing and write at least one sentence to create a story with a start, middle and end.

I have also attached an updated Writing Planner including worksheets to match each suggested activity and these can be found by clicking the link below.
