Thursday 7th May

Good morning Squirrels.

I hope you are enjoying the staff story time on the main school blog.

English

Today I would like you to use your story plans to write your Naughty Bus story. Remember to look at each box in turn so that your story is sequenced correctly. I would like you to try and remember to put in your punctuation whilst writing. I wonder if anyone can use an exclamation mark and some adjectives?

This is my plan and my story.

Once upon a time the was a girl called Miss Dore. She has a bright red bus called the Naughty Bus. The bus was called this because where ever he went he got into mischief!

One day Miss Dore decided to go for a trip to the local zoo. She decided to take the Naughty Bus with her so that she could keep an eye on him.

In the zoo there were lots of animals. They saw a tall giraffe, a fierce lion and a wiggly snake. As Miss Dore was admiring the lion’s fluffy mane, she realised that the Naughty Bus had disappeared! Miss Dore went to look for him.

The Naughty Bus had driven off and had made some bad choices! First, he let the fierce lion out of it’s cage! Then he had released the wiggly snake! The animals were chasing visitors around the zoo, it was chaos!

Luckily the zoo keeper appeared. He caught the snake and put it safely back into it’s tank. The he caught the lion and put it back into it’s cage. Finally, he caught the Naughty Bus and gave him back to Miss Dore. Miss Dore apologised for all the damage the Naughty Bus had caused. The zoo keeper gave Miss Dore a lead and suggested that she should use it for the Naughty Bus.

Miss Dore walked back home with the Naughty Bus safely on the lead. The end.

I hope you enjoyed my story. Maybe you could read your stories to your family.

Maths

How did you get one with the seasons? Did you remember them all and put them in the right order?

Today I would like to have a look at the months of the year. These are trickier to learn because there are 12 of them. See if you can work out which ones are missing on my list. I’ve left some clues to help you.

Art

A skyline is the outline or shape created where the sky meets buildings or the land. City skylines are the shapes created by the buildings in the city. Have a go at drawing or painting a city skyline. You could add some of the funny shapes buildings, such as the Gherkin, that you would find in London. You could choose which time of day your picture could be set - for example it could be night time or at sunrise. Here are some examples to help you.
