31 Ideas for reading Learning objectives: use syntax and context when reading for meaning; visualise and comment on events, characters and ideas, making imaginative links to their own experiences; take turns to speak, listen to each other s suggestions and talk about what they are going to do Curriculum links: ICT; The information around us High frequency words: we, have, up, at, the, and, to, there, first, had, go, but, last, a, it, no, one, in, it, next, this, dog, after, that, man, are, called, help, from, they, want, their, away, last, on, is, so Interest words: spaceship, protects, astronauts, space, travellers, spacesuit, satellite Word count: 185 Resources: whiteboard, ICT, junk modelling Getting started Ask children to describe what they can see on the title page. Read the title with the children. Focus on tricky words, e.g. astronauts and help children to use a range of decoding strategies to read them, e.g. illustrations, context. As a group, discuss what it might be like on the Moon. Use questions to develop children s language and understanding. Create a list of questions on the whiteboard that children would like to ask an astronaut. Reading and responding Read pp with the children. Look at the pictures and ask children to describe what is happening. Use questions and provide words, e.g. telescope to develop children s vocabulary. Ask children to read pp in pairs. Remind children of the strategies that can be used for reading new and tricky words. Support children as they read. Ask questions to help develop their understanding of the events being described, e.g. why did the dog go into space before people? Turn to the index on p151. Model how to use the index to find information in the book. Emphasise that the index is arranged alphabetically. 166 G2_volume_B.indb 166

32 Returning to the book Using pp , ask children to recount the events that led to the first moon walk. Discuss what it would be like to be an astronaut. Ask children to suggest what would be good and what would be bad about it. Support children to take turns and listen to each other s ideas. Ask children to go into role as an astronaut and talk to a partner about travelling into space. Checking and moving on Use ICT sources to find out more about space travel and the Solar System. Help children to design a spaceship using junk modelling. Ask children to pretend they ve been into space and write a diary entry about their experiences. Monday Finally our spaceship landed on the Moon. I was so excited when I walked down the ladder and took my first steps 167 G2_volume_B.indb 167
