Hi Year 5,

We hope that you are all well and continuing to access some of your home learning tasks. This week we have included some Mandarin for you to practise your skills as well as a research activity about a famous local figure. Looking forward to catching up with you all at some point. Take care, stay safe and keep smiling!

WRITE AWAY!

It’s time to be an Author.

Task 1: Let’s look at the problem section of The Game. We’re going to re-write it with new ideas.

What other problems could the game cause? What else could come out of the game and what would it do?

Keep the classroom setting the same for now and use the planning sheet on pg. You can make notes or draw what will come out of the game and what it will do once it’s released.

Task 2: Get Plotting

Have a go at planning and then writing your own ‘The Game’ story.

Task 3: Get Presenting

Present your story in a mini booklet.

The Game The Problem

At that moment, the table began to shake, then the windows rattled and the floor vibrated. Everyone stopped what they were doing and the room fell silent.

“EARTHQUAKE!” shouted Billy, bursting into laughter. He soon stopped, as in a blink of an eye, an enormous spider, bigger than a horse, shot out of the game and landed in the centre of the crowded classroom. Everyone froze. Its enormous, hairy legs were tensed, ready to pounce and its whole body seemed to pulse. Eight bulging eyes scanned the room and then…

It sprung into action. It crushed the tables, smashed the windows and flung children all around the classroom with a flick of its legs. It powered towards Mrs Allbright as she stood rooted to the floor in terror. The room was filled with shrieks of panic and despair.

“What shall we do?” shouted Danny desperately, pressing himself tightly against the wall.

“Read the instructions,” ordered Sally, “We have to stop it!”

What other problems could the game cause?

What else could come out of the game and what would it do?
