Read / listen to the poem, 'Dog in the Playground' by Allan Ahlberg.
Activity One: Answer the four 'quickfire' comprehension questions about the poem.
Activity Two: Imagine there is an animal lose on our school playground. Use your imagination – the animal can be as exotic as you like or it could be a dog like in the poem!
Write a diary entry recounting the events – you are retelling the story of what happened when the animal was lose on the playground.
What I am looking for:
- Diary entry that starts with: Dear Diary,
- Use of 1st person (I, we, me, us)
- Use of past tense (the event has already happened so you will need to use the past tense version of verbs e.g. walked, ran, was, were)
- Use of thoughts and feelings (tell the reader how you were feeling and what you were thinking when it was happening)
- Use of fronted adverbials at the start of sentences, making sure you put a comma afterwards
Write your diary entry in your exercise book, on the printed worksheet or type up in the text box on the Word doc.
