called ‘Pattan’s Pumpkin’.

Sentence Starters

In the distance,

On the ground,

Far away,

The animals were

All around,

Day One

Watch the story of Pattan’s Pumpkin being read.

Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvPzYiyPdsg

Does it remind you of a story from the Bible?

Pause on this page.

Can you write a description of the settings?

You will need to write about the river, Pattan’s hut,

Steps To Success

Use different sentence starters

Include expanded noun phrases (the tall

tree/the crystal, clear water)

Use similes (the water was blue like a sap-

phire)

CPET Year Two Home Learning Week beginning 22nd June 2020

Day Two

Over the next few days, you are going to re-write the story as if you were one of the animals.

Your story will start when the rain comes and Pattan has his great idea. (1 min 53 seconds).

Today, draw a set of pictures in the right order to show what happens next. You could use the

template below to draw your pictures.

Can you add some exciting words that you can use when you write your story?

CPET Year Two Home Learning Week beginning 22nd June 2020

Day Three and Day Four

Use your pictures that you drew yesterday to help

you write your story as one of the animals. Remember

to write in the first person (I or we) and write in the

past tense because it has already happened.

Your story starts when Pattan makes a hole in the

pumpkin.

Remember you are one of the animals so you are prob-

ably wondering what he is doing!!

Try to use interesting verbs, adjectives and adverbs,

as well as time connectives and conjunctions.

Steps To Success

Have I used capital letters and full-stops?

Have I used time connectives? (Next, Mean-

while, Finally)

Have I used adjectives?

Have I used adverbs? (describing how some-

thing was done-slowly, quickly, quietly)

Have I used conjunctions to join ideas?

(and, so, but, because)

Day Five

Read your story out loud. Does it make sense? Can you

make your story even better, perhaps by adding a

time connective, or up-level your adjectives or ad-

verbs. Look at the steps to success. Tick those you

have achieved. If some are missing, can you add

them now?

Now you have finished you could re-write in your best

handwriting or write on a computer. You could illus-

trate it too. Then, you will have something special to

add to your time capsule that you started several

weeks ago

Watch with Charlie and Blue as they visit a

Buddhist Centre.

Have a go at this relaxation exercise.

How do you feel now?

You could do it again and either go back to your

favourite place or try somewhere new, that per-

haps only exists in your imagination!

Science

LP: To understand and investigate

microhabitats

A micro-habitat is a small-scale, specific

habitat which supports the survival of cer-

tain animals or plants.

For example, the damp underside of a stone

in the forest could provide shelter for a wood-

louse, as well as decaying leaf and plant

matter for them to eat. This micro-habitat is

better adapted for the woodlouse than the ex-

posed undergrowth of the forest floor.

Go outside and look under rocks, leaves and

logs and see what microhabitats you can

find.

Used the attached sheet to identify the

minibeasts you discover. How is the micro

habitat perfect for them?

Geography

What is life like for a child in your chosen non-European country?

Do some research around this. Here are some videos of life in rural Kenya and urban Kenya that you

could use.

Urban Kenya- https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/clips/z2j6sbk

Rural Kenya- https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/clips/zgmn34j

See if you can find videos or stories to help you learn what life might be like in your chosen country

and find out how it might be different from your life in the UK.

Write a diary entry from the point of view of a child from your chosen non-European country, thinking

about what a day in their life might be like.

PSHE

L.P. To know how to ask for help in an

emergency

What is an emergency? Discuss with an

adult.

Now, have a go at role-playing an emergency

situation (e.g. you are playing with a friend

at the park and they get hurt).

Think about who you would ask for help and

what you might say.

You could make a short film showing what

you would do or you could write a speech

bubble giving someone advice about what to

do in an emergency.

Design Technology

This week we are going to start a DT unit on

cooking and nutrition.

Food comes from plants and animals.

erpoint, have a go at naming the foods.

Do you know whether they are from plants

or animals?

Then play these games to test your

Tuesday week beginning 22nd June

Spellings

Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOqJgBUeBNM

LP: To know when to use the -le ending

When spelling the word endings le, notice that

some words have a double consonant before

the le ending. This is to protect the short vowel

sound in the stressed syllable. The consonant l in

the ending does not count as part of a double

consonant pattern - it

belongs to

the le ending.

Activity

Cut out the cards on the next sheet and see if you

can sort into the correct group as shown on the

chart

Some have a double consonant before -le, others

have 2 different consonants and the final group

only have one consonant before –le.

See if you can find any rules that will help you

when spelling these words.
