However, before anyone can eat it, a series of accidents befall the unfortunate sandwich. Before long, it has been dropped in sand, squished by a skateboard and even slithered over by slugs. By the time the sun sets in the park and the badger gets his paws on it, the sandwich looks far from appealing. Will he still be tempted to taste it? A twist in the tale will provide the quirky answer.

Starting Points are written to help you plan book-based units of work.

Last week we created a map for our imaginary town and used symbols and a key to mark where landmarks were. All the things we put on our map like houses, a church and a park are made by man. These are called human features but maps also show us natural features such as rivers, the beach, woodland, mountains. Go through the PowerPoint: Maps Natural and Human Features.

Children may also have a go at creating their own towers, some tower templates are available through the activity link. As your shoots start to change and grow, keep an update in your plant diary of how each of the three different seeds are growing (or not). Use the sentence stems from last week to update your diary. I have been surprised to see that my Plant B was the first seed to germinate and sprout roots. However, shortly after Plant A followed. I wonder whether, as they continue to grow, Plant B will look as healthy as Plant A?
