Welcome to our English page!

This week our mini topic is

'Children of the World'

I found so many lovely stories all about children from around the world that I couldn't choose! So, there are a few stories to share this week but that's not such a bad thing is it?!

I hope you enjoyed the books and the presentation! The world is a big place isn't it? What places have you visited? What place would you like to visit? Imagine you are a child living in another part of the world. Choose a place that you know or would like to know more about after sharing the books. Pretend that you live there and you are sending a postcard to a child here in the UK telling them what it is like there. You may like to gather some facts about a child's life in a certain country and create a fact file or a fact book in a folded book. Somethings to write about could be...

• The weather there
• The food eaten there
• The clothes worn there
• What a home looks like
• The things children do for fun
• How you say 'Hello' in that place or maybe other words from the language
• What the town, city, village looks like and what you'd see there
• People's jobs there
• Comparing things that are the same and different to where you live

• You could make a mini folded fact book about a country or a child's life that has captured your interest. Below you'll find a folded book template (but you don't need a fancy template, just use paper to make a book with a few pages for you to write in) 
• There is also a postcard template (but you can make one of these yourself too)
• There is a blank fact file template to use if you like.
