Ss write/draw & explain 1 piece of info they already know and one question they want answered.

Keep Marcus focussed by getting him to stick on balloons. Scaffold some Ss balloons by staring the sentence for him.

26x Balloon cut outs,1x poster, coloured pencils.

RS1.6

As a class read a big book about a celebration e.g. Fang Fang’s Chinese New Year. T covers words with post-it notes and asks Ss to use contextual information to determine a word that makes sense. Ss return to their seats and complete a similar activity using a close passage. (L/Ap)

Ss use the context of a removed word (pics/surrounding text) to complete the sentence.

Marcus has the ‘special job’ of turning the page. Provide word banks for some Ss.

Big book: e.g. Fang Fang’s Chinese New Year, post-it notes, 26x close passage

DS1.1 NS1.1

Birthdays as celebrations: Ss line up in order using the month of their birthdays. Record how many birthdays occur in each month. As a class visually create a pictograph on the board which represents this information. Ask individuals to help by sticking the correct number of people on each month. Ss return to desk and answer a worksheet based on analysing the class pictograph. (LM/An)

Ss correctly interpret information depicted in a Pictograph.




26x cardboard cut out of people, blue tack, worksheet.
