Literacy

The lesson today is connected to the maths lesson today with a focus on map making. Discuss the map and the directions. Which animal is asleep on the map and how can you tell? What are the brown marks? Where’s the ladybird and what do you think he might be doing? Why is there a big red cross above the cow? In the story the two baddies make a map of the farmyard in a cunning plan to steal the fine prize cow. (Even though it doesn’t go well!) Have a go at making a map of the farm like the baddies using positional language! Look at the map below to give you some ideas. Could you make your map better than the robbers and not get caught by the animals.

Maths
