Today I would like you to watch the new episode in our fantasy story series. Our characters are now heading on their quest and find themselves out in the woods. Here they encounter the mysterious Dr Scallion and his travelling show and we will get to write a small battle scene.

Today I would just like you to plan what will happen in this part of your story: the camp in the woods, spying on Dr Scallion's caravan and the battle with the brigands, led by the mysterious tabby cat. I have attached the character card for Dr Scallion to help. Tomorrow we will do our writing and I will attach some more resources to help.

RE: IALT explore the parables of Jesus.

We are going on from some Bible stories from the Old Testament to some in the New Testament. Can you remember the difference between the Old and New Testament?

Firstly, I would like you to go through the slides I have attached looking at some of the parables of Jesus. Then I would like you to look at Parable Cards A and B, read through the parables, then complete the mind maps on worksheet 4B.
