Today we are going to think about ways we can change the poem Hickory Dickory dock to make a new one using our phonics to help us spell words we want to include.
Let's start by using our story map to remind ourselves of the poem.
Let's use these objects and rhyming words to fill in the missing words in the poem. We will say them together then use our phonic knowledge to write the words on our whiteboards.
Hickory Dickory _______
The mouse ran up the ______
Some children will be completing this practically outside.
To be able to count similar objects up to 10 with accuracy and fluency.

Play cross the river outside, the children can only cross the river if they say a promise!
We are going to write them down and to show we all agree and trust each other to keep the promises. Instead of hands like the picture above, we are each going to put our fingerprint around the edge of the paper, including the adults too!
-
Settlements are places where people live and sometimes work. They can be small or large.
-
This depends on how many people live there and how many facilities there are.
-
Facilities are places like:
- schools
- parks
- shops
Village
- A village is also small but may have houses, a primary school, a few shops, a Post Office and a village hall.
Town
- A town is larger than a village, with lots of houses, primary and secondary schools, as well as sometimes having a railway station and shopping centre.
City
-
A city is the largest type of settlement, containing lots of buildings and lots of people. They usually have hospitals, sports facilities, universities, shops, offices, many houses and often a cathedral.
-
In the UK however, some cities may be small. This is because some settlements have a cathedral and this makes them a city. For example, St Davids in Wales and Wells in England.
Some settlements also have a special use, or function. For example:
- ports - by a river or sea for ships to transport goods
- market towns - where local farmers sell goods
- resorts - where people go on holiday
