Our Learning Autumn 1 2024
ENGLISH
Our first text will be: ‘Leon and the Place Between’ by Angela McAllister.
The children will explore the characters’ thoughts and emotions and take part in drama activities, leading to writing in role and the creation of dialogue. Using the structure of the original story, children will plan their own version of the story where their own character enters a magical world.
Our second text will be: ‘Dear Earth’ by Isabel Otter and Clara Anganuzzi.
The children will use all the skills and vocabulary covered to write their own extended informative leaflet about protecting the environment. Children will finish with a letter to the earth, using Tessa’s letter from the text and celebrating their own dreams and aspirations.
