Before watching the video and completing the lesson, I would like you to think of the last page you have read. I have attached it to remind you. Can you write a couple of sentences to explain what you think might happen next and why? Use clues from the picture to help you. You might think about other stories that are like this story to help you. You will need this for the need of the video.
Lesson 2 based on Into the Forest
Once you have watched the video, look closely at the forest scene on the last page you have looked at. Can you start creating a word bank of words and phrases to describe. You will need this for tomorrow’s lesson.
