Includes 1 Non-fiction text with 1 question/activity sheet. Text title:
Shape
The text is very short and includes a picture on the front of each reading card. Most children at Foundation Stage may not be able to read the text by themselves, though they may be able to guess at some of the words because of the context. The idea is that an adult or more-able reader will read the words to and with the child, before discussing the picture and the theme of the card.
The Talk time questions on the other side of the card are simply suggested prompts for the adult. It is important to encourage the child to ask questions about the theme of the card.
The Fun time activities are designed to trigger off cross-curricular investigations, research enquiries and creativity. The activities may be done at school or at home and a summary of the resources needed for each card is given on card G. The activities are mainly practical in nature, so that all children can succeed, whatever their levels of literacy.
The Puzzle time section contains cartoons or puzzles that are related to the main theme of each card. They give children the opportunity of playing with words and reinforcing their language skills.
Each card has an All join in section with either a short poem, a song or a rhyme. Very few children at this stage will be able to read the words by themselves, but the intention is for the adult and child to learn the rhyme by heart and enjoy saying it together.

This lesson focuses on the features or signposts of information texts. It will lead the children to use the skill of skim-reading to help them to evaluate the usefulness of information texts and to speed up their investigative reading. The more fun the children have within this lesson, the easier they will find it to use and appreciate the skill they are learning. Depending on the class dynamic, this lesson could be made into one big competition with time limits and/or point systems for each activity.
WALT • Spot and talk about different parts of information texts, so we can use them to help us find specific information. • Make up questions about a topic and learn to skim read, so we can find out the general idea of the text.

The lesson begins by recapping on the shared values of marriage, and then begins to explore these through
the Jewish ceremony. The main teaching point of this lesson is how a wedding ceremony is a public display
of a personal decision. By sharing their intentions and beliefs with their friends and family, believers have
the support to do what they believe is right, even when things are tough.
The lesson gives people the opportunity to draw parallels with their own public lives and the values which
they demonstrate.
Before teaching the lesson, you will need to find a video of a Jewish wedding ceremony. Ensure that you
have had a chance to watch the video and that all equipment is working correctly
Learning objective
• To understand why Jewish believers get married
and the public ceremony that celebrates this.
Success criteria
Learning about:
• Pupils will know some key features of Jewish
wedding ceremonies.
Learning from:

of making vows in public and what making them
says about the decisions the believer has made.
