Keeping ourselves safe

At School we have been learning how to keep ourselves safe. Constable Jos and Terri have been helping us with this learning. Here are some of the things I have learnt.

Jack And The Beanstalk

Play Summary - Term 3 Weeks 1-2

For the next two weeks you are working in groups to practise and
perform a play. This is using our oral language and reading skills in literacy.
Our key competency focus is participating and contributing.

For writing your task is to summarise the main events in your play
in three paragraphs. You must plan your writing first but it is up to you
how you do your planning.  You must also write a fourth paragraph about
your experience of practising and performing your play.

Yr 6

I am learning to organise my text into paragraphs which begin
with a main idea and contain supporting information/detail.

I am learning to make links across paragraphs.

I am learning to use basic punctuation accurately.

I am learning to use dialogue punctuation accurately.

Yr 7

I am learning to use a range of different planning styles.

I am learning to plan my writing to suit the purpose of my writing.

I am learning to organise my ideas into paragraphs where the ideas are
clearly related and where there are links within and between paragraphs.

I am learning to use basic punctuation accurately in my writing.

I am learning to use complex punctuation to enhance my writing e.g. colons
: and semi-colons ; , and parentheses ().

Success Criteria

I will be successful when I can/have

-summarised the play in three paragraphs

-made links across my paragraphs

-used some basic and complex punctuation correctly (speech marks).

Once you have finished your writing highlight these success criteria green
if you have met them and can show them in your work. Highlight green in your
work where you have met these success criteria.

Jack And The Beanstalk

In the first scene of the play, Jack and his mother are
standing in the garden outside their small cottage. Jack's
mother tells him to go to the market and sell the cow.

In the second scene of the play, Jack is on the way
to the market Jack bumps into an old man who wants
to buy a cow. Jack sells the cow to the old man, but instead
of paying him money he paid magic beans. When he came back
home his mother was furious with him so Jack`s mother chucked
the beans out the window.

In the last scene of the play, Jack and his mother look
out the window and see a huge beanstalk. Jack goes
outside and decides to climb it. When he gets to the top he
hears a huge giant, Jack also saw a hen that lays golden eggs
and he steals it and his mother chops the beanstalk down so
that the giant can't catch them and they never see him ever again.

My team worked very well in our play. My team also participated
very well but next time they need to focus a bit more. Next time we
need to work on focusing  a bit more. People participated by
making props and practising.
