Cursive Handwriting

Good morning Year 1.

Mrs Stollery has made a mistake in handwriting.

She has spelt venom without the m. 

Even grown ups make mistakes. 

Can you please correct her mistake and write venom?

Today, I introduce a new poem about a penguin. If you haven't got a printer, don't worry - in the video, I model using a plain piece of paper to do the activity. We are going to using our Super 6 skills to help us to understand and discuss the poem. 

1. First we are going to visualise - we will listen to the poem and then draw the pictures we are imagining in our head as we listen. 

2. Second, we are going to use monitoring - copy down 3 words from the poem you don't understand. Find out the meaning and draw a picture of what it means to help you to remember the meaning. In the video, I model using the context to find out the meaning. 

3. Now you understand more of the words, has the picture you're imagining in your head changed? You can add to your picture you did in step 1 if so. 

4. Finally, write down some words or groups of words that you like/enjoy listening to. Why do you like them? Listen to me model talking about the parts of the poem I like and then discuss with someone else in your family.
