Marvel and gasp at all the things Floyd threw into the tree that got stuck! Can you remember them all at the end of the story? Look back/listen again to check.
Today you are going to write your own version of Stuck. Think about: Who will your main character be? What items will he/she throw into the tree that will get stuck? (Remember to start with everyday things, before your list becomes more imaginative! You can make your list as funny and as quirky as you like!) What will be the last item thrown that will mean the kite comes unstuck? Make a list or series of pictures to act as a plan.
You may choose to use some of Oliver Jeffers’ sentence starters, e.g.
It all began when …
The trouble REALLY began when …
In order to knock down …
You could also use or make comments as he does too, e.g.
This was getting ridiculous!
Unbelievably, that got stuck too!
I’m sure you can guess what happened!

You can listen and enjoy the whole book here:
Imagine you are another item in Duncan’s pencil case, e.g. a ruler, pencil sharpener, highlighter pen, biro. Write a postcard to Duncan to add to the collection sent to him.
Think about: What job did you originally have in the pencil case? Did you enjoy your job? Might you have any memorable stories to remind Duncan of? What has happened to you since you were last with Duncan? E.g. Have you been travelling to any exciting places? What might you like to ask Duncan now?
As if you are the ruler, pencil sharpener, highlighter etc. write your postcard to Duncan.
Rehearse each sentence out loud before you write to check it makes sense. Keep reading your work as you write to check for spelling and punctuation too.
If you can, send your finished postcard to me! I could then end up with a class set of postcards from various pencil case items! I can’t wait!

Day 2:
Watch and listen to ‘Here We Are’ by clicking the front cover below: (please note, this version contains some American spellings)
Talk about the book. Ask your child: Who do you think Oliver Jeffers wrote this book for? Why do you think he wrote the book? (He wrote it for his baby son to help him make sense of the world).
It is full of key advice. Listen to the clip again and pause at key points to make a note of the advice Oliver Jeffers gives throughout the book, e.g. You have a body. Look after it, as most bits don’t grow back. Some pieces of advice are given to you; others you will have to read between the lines and discuss! Do you agree with the advice he gives? Can you think of any other advice you would like to add?
Create a poster with the book title: Here We Are in the middle. Around the outside in boxes or bubbles, write down the advice that Oliver Jeffers gives.
Colour and decorate your poster to make it as attractive as possible. Display your poster in your house – somewhere where everyone can see!

Day 1:
Watch and listen to the story ‘How to Catch a Star’ up to 3:40 mins by clicking the front cover below:
Talk about what has happened so far in the story. Can you recall all the different attempts the boy has tried to catch a star? Can you remember why each one hasn’t worked? Look back/listen again to check.
Imagine you are the boy in the story. Your task is to write a letter to an astronomer (someone who studies stars and space) asking them for help to catch a star.
Include all the things you have tried so far and why each one hasn’t worked. You can use the joining word ‘but’ to help you join the parts of the sentence, e.g. I tried to jump up and grab a star but it was too high.
You might want to use the introductory sentence and sentence starters below to help you:
Dear Astronomer, I’m writing this letter to ask for your help in catching a star! I’ve already tried a few things but none of them have worked!
First of all I tried …
Next I had a go at …
I’ve also …
I’ve even …
I’m beginning to think I will never catch a star!
Please can you help me!
Yours sincerely, Signature

Watch and ‘read’ the picture book I Walk With Vanessa by Kerascoët with the sound turned off:
(Click the front cover below to be taken to the video).
Pause the story throughout to discuss what is happening on each page.
Now watch this version with the sound on:
Your task over the next two sessions is to choose between either one of the following:
Write the story to match the picture book or Write a story about a time when you have shown or seen someone else show an act of kindness that has spread. This might have been towards a friend, family member, new child in the class, etc.

Day 3:
Watch and listen to We Are All Wonders by R. J. Palacio by clicking the book cover opposite.
Due to the sensitive content of this book, it is advised that the book is shared and discussed with an adult throughout the reading.
Points for discussion:
What does the word unique mean? What does the word wonder mean? What does the phrase hurt my feelings mean? How does the main character feel when others point or laugh? How does he feel when he puts on his helmet and travels across the galaxy? What do you think it means when the narrator says that perhaps people could ‘change the way they see?’ Talk together about how we are all wonders – include everyone in your household!
The book concludes with the sentence: Look with kindness and you will always find wonder.
Find some synonyms for kindness here:
Make a poster about being kind. Write the final sentence from the book – Look with kindness and you will always find wonder – in bold in the middle of your poster. Around the outside, record all the different ways you can show kindness. Remember kindness can often be shown in the smallest of actions, e.g. smiling, offering to help when someone is stuck, giving someone a compliment.
Try to make your poster as bright and engaging as possible. Put it up in your household to show everyone how you can be kind!
Complete the spelling challenge set for you today.

Welcome to another brand new week of learning Year 2! These weeks are flying by far too quickly. There are so many exciting tasks for you to complete this week, including Sports Week activities for you to participate in.
Here are the weekly challenges for this week:
Have a brilliant week filled with superb learning and concentration!
Miss Woodend
It’s Friday! Have a super day of learning - you’ve all worked so hard this week!

Day 5
Listen to the story of The Bird King:
Listen again and pause to make a list of all the birds who want to be ‘the bird king.’
Retell the story orally to each other. Use time sequencing words and phrases to help organise your retelling, e.g. Once upon a time …, first, next, after that, later that day, eventually, finally.
Your challenge today is to write your own version of The Bird King! Replace the parakeet, toucan, macaw etc. with your choice of birds. Perhaps you could include some birds that you have researched earlier this week!
Points to consider:
Why might each bird think that they should be the bird king? You could use this to highlight some of the birds’ special features, just as the birds do in the original (0:24 – 0:45 mins).
Think carefully about the bird which might replace the eagle. Which other large bird or bird of prey might fly so high?
Think carefully about which bird might replace the sparrow. Which other small bird could fly under the larger bird’s wing?
Talk about your ideas and your plan with an adult. Practise each of your sentences out loud before you write. Remember to keep reading through your writing to check it makes sense and to check for spelling and punctuation.

This week will be your second week learning about ‘Amazing Birds’. You all produced some brilliant work before the holidays so I can’t wait to see what you will achieve this week! If we were in school, we would have been enjoying one of my favourite stories ‘The Owl Who Was Afraid Of The Dark’ together, so to finish your two weeks of learning about Amazing Birds, I will begin reading this to you at the end of the week. I know you’re going to love it as much as I do!
Day 1
Enjoy the brief film clip of the blackbird feeding its chicks and the audio recording of a blackbird’s song. Discuss and marvel at each!
Look at the webpage RSPB Facts About Birds:
Read the section ‘I want to learn about …’ and use the links to read more information about the robin, house sparrow, chaffinch and blue tit. Note how each set of information is written like a series of clues, similar to a riddle, e.g. I see a bird with a chest of red, With black and white wings and grey on its head … It’s a chaffinch!
Your task today is to write a riddle(s) for other garden birds. Your riddle doesn’t have to rhyme and can include other information as well as appearance.
E.g. I see a bird that sings nearly all year round. It eats worms, seeds, fruit, insects and other invertebrates. Some think it is cute, but it will defend its territory. It is famous for its red breast. What is it? … It’s a robin!
Use the A-Z Find a Bird guide on the RSPB website to find key information on your chosen garden bird(s). Adult support will be required to read some of the information here.
Options may include: wren, blue tit, goldfinch, woodpigeon etc. Remember to sequence your information so that you only reveal the most obvious clue at the end! Test your riddle(s) out on your family!
Complete ‘Sentence Punctuation’.
