Week Beginning 04/01/21

English

The English tasks for this week are all based on classic poetry, focussing on the Victorian poem ‘The Queen of Hearts’. This classic poem is based on the story of Alice In Wonderland and was written over 150 years ago.

In lesson 1, read the poem several times and try to learn it off by heart. Once you have practised reciting the poem, perform it to someone in your family. Remember to use expression when you speak and you could even include some appropriate actions to accompany the words.

In lesson 2, look at the following pictures relating to the classic poem ‘The Queen of Hearts’ and think about what vocabulary you could add to the poem to improve it. Label the queen, the tarts, the knave and the king, including adjectives.

In lesson 3, use the vocabulary you used in the previous lesson and add appropriate adjectives to the poem to improve it. Once you have added a range of adjectives, write out your improved version of the poem in your neatest handwriting using the lines on the worksheet.
