Good morning, Mercury!
How’s it going? I hope you are all well and working hard!
Please see, below, our remote learning tasks for today.
English
Year 4/Year 3/Table 2
- Read this story with an adult: Trickster Tales (this website is free but will need a login): https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/api/digital_books/1141.html An audio is available to listen to alongside. Re-read each page out loud after listening to the audio. I am really sorry – I tried to copy the text to save you joining, as I do most weeks, but couldn’t with this!
- Discuss what happened in the story. Read it again. After re-reading the story, re-tell it in your own words. Practise your sentences out loud before writing them down.
- Use these sentence openings to help:
- One morning …
- After that …
- Then …
- Meanwhile …
- It wasn’t long before …
- Later on …
- In the end …
- Check spelling and punctuation in each sentence together.
- You could present your story as a book and add some pictures/illustrations.
- Read your story out loud to a family member or via an online video platform to other family members, e.g. grandparents. Ask them to say what they like about your story… and send a video to me, too!

There may also be activities to work with somebody else on. If there is a PowerPoint Presentation, then watch this first, listening to the teaching at the same time. All the answers are provided.
