Power of Reading

 In Year 2 we have started a project called the 'Power of Reading' which involves focussing all our work on one book and gaining a deep understanding through drama, role investigation, writing tasks, sketching etc.

 Today we read only the first sentence of the book without looking at the front cover or any illustrations. The sentence was 'Noi and his dad lived with their six cats by the sea.'
From this the children sketched their own representation of what this looked like to them.

They then added any interesting vocabulary which gave their picture meaning.

We compared our pictures and asked each other questions about our choices.
