Thursday

Reading

RIC

On and on he went, and when it began to grow dark he found a snowdrift and tunnelled into it as his father had taught him. Outside, the screaming wind drove blizzards of snow across the darkness but Ivan slept safe and warm in his shelter. When morning came, he dug himself out, ate a little food from his pocket and looked all around. His footprints were gone and the wind had shifted the snowdrifts into a new pattern so that he could not tell which way he had come. He sighed, turned his face into the wind and walked on.

R - What do you think Ivan ate for breakfast?

I - Why is it good that Ivan's footprints cannot be traced?

C - Why has the author described the wind as "screaming?"

LC: Identify and discuss the purpose, audience, structure, vocabulary and grammar for a narrative.

Tony DiTerlizzi’s agent asked the children in Year 3 last year to help him out by writing a narrative version of his book The Spider and the Fly. He wanted to include the stories in a new 20th Anniversary edition.

He was very impressed with the stories. He hasn't had the chance to publish the new book yet and has invited you to write your own stories to be included too. 

 To help us write the narrative for his book, let's think about the main purpose of each part.
