Crew MI took their reading outside today in the lovely sun , they had to workout and draw a 5 foot hole on the floor using chalk as this was the size of the hole that was dug. Then before we finished reading chapter 7 we did a few freeze frames.

Our entry ticket today allowed us to think about all the characters in the story so far and and what we know about them. After working in mini crews we made a class anchor chart on our findings. We enjoyed reading out loud again today using a read around the robin, an echo read and enjoyed reading with our partner. We text marked as we read, really thinking about the vocabulary which we unpicked. We voiced our thoughts and opinions about some of the parts of the story and this helped when unpicking some book talk questions. Our exit ticket challenged our knowledge on what we had read. We had to summarise Stanley’s morning (the main character in our story) in no more than 50 words. Children shared their summaries and showed their understanding of the text.
