Friday 20th November - English

 For your English activity today,
could you watch the Talk for Writing video of The Little Red Hen by Pie Corbett?

Talk for Writing is a strategy used in school to support early writing. We use actions to retell the story, this then helps the children when writing as the story becomes more memorable to them. 

Can you copy the actions?

This activity links to these Reading objectives:

•Listens to and joins in with stories and poems, one-to-one and also in small groups.
• Joins in with repeated refrains and anticipates key events and phrases in rhymes and stories. •Beginning to be aware of the way stories are structured.
