Wolf Brother Simple Chapter Summaries

(2)
<p>I wrote these chapter summaries of Wolf Brother by Michelle Paver to help SEN and EAL children access the story alongside the rest of the class. They were very valuable and have been used with great success. The whole book is covered from start to finish.</p> <p>An example from Chapter 3:<br /> Torak saw the wolf and at first, wanted to eat it. Torak realised the wolf was alone. It’s family had died in a flood. The Wolf was howling and crying. Torak realised he understood the wolf saying, “Why won’t you play with me brothers?”, “Why won’t you wake up?” and, “I’m hungry.”<br /> Wolf could smell something like wolf in the air. Torak went towards Wolf with a knife, ready to fight it if it attacked him. Wolf showed Torak he was too weak to fight and wasn’t going to attack.<br /> Torak hugged Wolf and Wolf wasn’t scared any more.</p>

Maya Myth Assembly Script: The Hero Twins.

(1)
This is an assembly script that I wrote and used with my Y6 class. There is enough roles for up to 30 children but it could easily be modified up or down as you require. <br /> <br /> The story is based on a Maya Myth which is found in the sacred book, the Popol Vuh. It is called the Hero Twins. We made elaborate masks with lots of glitter and used balloons for the Maya ball game (because they were easier for the chn to control on the stage than using real footballs). <br /> <br /> The script includes an introduction, fun facts about the Maya and then goes on to tell the mythical story.<br /> <br /> These were the only props we used and it definitely worked with only these however if you wanted to spend more time adding your own props it would be enhanced further too. This is a great resource if you don't have much time but also can be great if you do have the time and resources to go further!

I wrote these chapter summaries of Elizabeth Laird's Oranges in No Man's Land to help SEN and EAL children access the story alongside the rest of the class. They were very valuable and have been used a few years in a row now with great success.

In Beirut a war broke out and one day Ayesha’s family had to leave home. As they were running away from home, a bomb dropped destroying their house and killing their mother.<br /> Ayesha, her granny and her two brothers (Ahmed and Latif) went to a destroyed part of the city to find a home.

Early EAL Resources: Maths: Number

(0)
This resource is aimed at a child who has recently arrived in England and who has English as an Additional Language.<br /> <br /> This resource consists of three documents which make up 16 A4 pages.<br /> <br /> 1. Based around recognising and learning the written words for numbers 1-20 and some vocab for division, multiplication, addition and subtraction. It progresses from a word bank, match up games with a challenge question and then an activity based on using their new English skills to help complete equations.<br /> <br /> 2. Based around recognising and learning the written words for numbers 1-100 using some match up activities and some fill in the gap vocabulary activities. Numbers are chosen carefully to help children distinguish between 'ty' and 'teen'.<br /> <br /> 3. Based around learning vocabulary for place value. This resource includes numbers up to one million and up to with three decimal places. The activities gradually build up to make the new vocabulary manageable. Offers lots of opportunities for practice. I recommend this resource is used with close adult support to focus on how to say the numbers and in which order.<br /> <br /> Titles and key vocabulary are translated into arabic (using Google translate) but you could delete this and replace with another language easily.
