Y4H - English

In English this week we have started to look at a new book. To begin with, we were given just these four pictures. We had to then write down our initial ideas and key vocabulary, as to what we thought the pictures were about and what we thought was happening in them. We then wrote questions, including what we wanted to find out about the images and the book. 




After looking at all four pictures, we were able to draw a conclusion that they were about a girl and her community and how it changes over time. Some of us came up with the idea that it is like a life cycle and environmental changes. We learnt a lot about the character, just through the pictures and the clues that we could find. 

By the end of the lesson, we guessing what the book was called, based on the knowledge that we had learnt from being a detective and looking deeper into the messages behind the pictures. This book is called: Belonging by Jeannie Baker.

P.S. Check back later on in the week to see the rest of our work, based on these four pictures!
