This week our Focus text is The Highway Rat, by Julia Donaldson. You are going to meet the greedy Highway Rat, but beware! He is determined to steal from anyone who dares to cross his path on the highway!
To warm up, ask your child: what do you already know about rats? Have you ever seen a rat or read a story about one? Watch Seven Fun Facts about Rats using the link below, from the start up to 4:01 mins https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zkj62PhoFUs.
Watch and enjoy The Highway Rat being read aloud: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkVoYeCLIXU. Re-watch the first page being read out loud. Talk about what the Highway Rat looks like and how he behaves towards others. Draw a picture of him and write a short character profile, e.g. He is a baddie and a beast. He wears a cape. He has a black hat and he carries a sharp silver sword. His manners are rough and rude. His teeth are sharp and yellow. etc. Try to include capital letters, full stops, finger spaces and the word ‘and’.
Re-read and check the character profile together. Does it make sense?
