A start to comparing language style. Children given Donaldson books and fill in table group or individual work. Differentiated 3 ways: repetition, repetition and rhyme and various languages. Can obviously change the photos by copying and pasting different pictures in.

Stories by the same author. Different sentences/phrases typed up from Julia Donaldson books: A squash and a squeeze, Sharing a shell and Follow the Swallow. My class really enjoyed spliting them into groups. SOme chose 'people, animal, object&' others chose to group sentences according to punctuation or language. They were allowed to chose whether to use a venn diagram (hoops on floor) or large carroll diagrams I made up. I used this as a start for thinking about similarities and differences in books by the same author.

1.) Simple advert scaffold to start children thinking about the features of a print advert and the layout. 2.) Notice to practise a talent for award ceremony, which ties into end of Media Magic Topic. 3.) An activity for children to design a new age phone (links to PP on Bell also in my resources). 4.) Simple sheet to design digital advert.

I used this for my very able Year 2 class during our Media Magic topic, however it's probably more appropriate for KS2. It can be used as a starting point for learning more about Bell himself or asking children to design a phonne of the future. Simple worksheet to accompany.

Here are some normal and some silly sentences. Children work together to sort them into silly and non-silly.
