This half term, KS1 are reading ‘Not Now, Bernard’ by David McKee. Before reading the book, we had a good look at the front cover and made a few inferences based on the pictures. We had a discussion about what the book might be about before reading it. We used clues on the front cover to help us with this. We’re then using it to write descriptions using adjectives. We’ll write them about the monster in the book and our own invented monsters too.
The monster has sharp, pointy teeth. He is huge and purple. He is loud and scary.
Help at home by reading every night to your child. It is fine (and beneficial) to read and re-read books many times.
