This song is a fun way to learn about it too!

Mini Beast Story

Good morning everyone!

How are you getting on with your story?  Have you thought of all the parts of your story yet?

Have a look at the “story mountain” below, this can help you organise your story

Now how about the characters in your story…..how do we know what they look like? Or sound like?  Think about the words you use, eg  a wriggly, windy worm

Or   a crafty, clever caterpillar                 

Or   a pretty, colourful butterfly

Your challenge today………….  Write three sentences for your story……remember  fullstops and capital letters!

Peppa pretending to be a worm! This made me smile!!   http://www.nickjr.co.uk/peppa-pig/videos/peppa-wiggly-worm-song/

Days of the Week

This week we are going to think the days of the week. This is a lovely story that illustrates the order of the days of the week.

Here is some fun days of the week songs we listen to at school –

Can you get your mum or dad to take a photo of you doing something at home and write a caption for it. For example: On Monday I played in the garden wioth my football., On Tuesday I had an ice lolly, On Wednesday I built a lego model etc. At the end of the week you can out it together as a booklet. You can send your photos and sentences to office@damers.dorset.sch.uk if you would like us to share them on the blog. We would love to see what you get up to in your week.

Mini beast Stories

Good morning everyone! We hope you have all had a good weekend! 

This week we would like you to enjoy some more minibeast stories!

We think you will enjoy these……

Today we would like you to tell a story. Choose a minibeast, perhaps a spider, or a beetle or a snail maybe.  Can you make up a story about them?

Remember you will need to think about 

Who  is in the story

Where  the story takes place

What  happens in the story?

Think of your ideas and then perhaps your grown up will write or type the story. Think about the words you use to make your story really interesting and fun!

We look forward to seeing your stories soon!
