Reading for Everyone Else

Earlier this week, we looked at ‘Peter and the Wolf’, which is a story with Russian origins. Below is a copy of the story so that you are familiar with it.

Today, you will summarise the story. This is a good skills to have, as it shows that you can pick out the main points of what is happening.

Here are 2 examples of what a story map could look like.

This weeks lesson is split into 2 parts:-

Listening to music

Answer the following questions about the piece of music you chose. You can either write this down, or discuss with your family.

1. Describe the instrument being played. What shape and size is it?
2. Describe the materials used to make this instrument
3. How do you think it makes a sound? Can you work what the performer does to create this sound?
4. How did this music make you feel? Choose an emoji if you’d like!

2. Creating music

It’s time to make a kitchen utensil band! First, make sure the adults in the house are OK with this, and maybe even get them to join in too.

Find some suitable items from the kitchen that you think will make some good sounds… like a saucepan, spoon, ladle, spatula, whisk etc.
Using a grid separated into four beats, make a graphic score showing when each sound is going to be made.

We’ve prepared an example for you, and you can download this, as well as a template grid to print at home here

Try playing each part, then with the help of others in the house, all the parts together.
