Honey and Trouble: recycled story (character)

﻿Hi everyone. Welcome to unit eight. Our Honey and Trouble Recycling Unit. Now, just a note before we get started, this unit is based upon the work and the resources created in unit seven. The previous Honey in Trouble unit. So if you haven't done that unit, then please stop the video and go back and complete unit seven. You will need to have good knowledge of the story and all of the practise and build up work so that you can adapt it in this unit eight. So please complete unit seven before you move on to unit eight. We are going to be starting off our learning today with a game, before moving on to a spelling activity, then recapping our story and story map from unit seven and then updating our story map, ready for recycling. In this lesson, you will need an exercise book or paper, a pencil, your brain and some sticky notes or other small pieces of paper. So pause the video now, so that you can get all of those things. We are going to play a game. It's the same game we played at the start of unit seven. And I hope you've got to know me a little bit better by now and it might make your guessing a little bit easier. It's called two ruths and a lie. And I'm going to give you three sentences. Two of those things are true, but one of them is a cheeky lie. I wonder if you can guess the lie. Here are my sentences. Here is the first one. My favourite storybook is Peter Pan. My favourite storybook is Peter Pan. Truth of Lie? Next one. I am an amazing hula Hooper. What do you think? Truth a lie? I am an amazing hula Hooper. And the the last one, I played rugby for seven years. I played rugby for seven years. Which two do you think are true, and which do you think is a lie? Have a guess now. Point to the one that you think is a lie? Let's find out, shall we? My favourite story book is Peter Pan. It's my favourite for a long, long time. And I did play rugby for seven years. It a huge part of my life. It kept me nice and fit and I loved it. Which means that my lie is about being an amazing hula Hooper. I am not an amazing hula Hooper. In fact, I'm not very good at all. And I know lots of children, who are very young and are much much better than me. And it makes me sad. And just to prove my lack of lying on those two points, there are some pictures. Here is all my copies of Peter Pan. Cause I have a lot because it's my favourite. And there is a picture of me in the mud and the rain a long time ago, playing rugby, that seven years. What have you got it right? Now we are going to do some spelling. We're going to learn to spell the days of the week. That's something that's really important. Most people write a day of the week, most days. Whether they're an adult or a child. So these are really, really important days. Unfortunately, almost all of our days of the week, we can't sound out with our phonics. They are tricky sight words. So we just have to remember. Luckily for you, I have a song for you today that will help you to remember them. So are you able to learn it? Today we are going to learn the verses of the song that are about Monday. That are about Tuesday, and that are about Wednesday. Are you ready? It goes like this. I'll sing then you sing. ♪ Monday ♪ will you sing that for me? ♪ Monday ♪ Now we're going down a little bit. ♪ Monday ♪ ♪ Monday ♪ Try and sing both of those for me. ♪ Monday ♪ ♪ Monday ♪ next one is going to go up. ♪ Monday ♪ ♪ It goes up ♪ ♪ You try ♪ ♪ Monday ♪ ♪ Monday's when I wonder why ♪ Would you do that for me? ♪ Monday's when I wonder why ♪ Great job. Let's try and sing all the Monday verse through together. ♪ Monday ♪ ♪ Monday ♪ ♪ Monday ♪ ♪ Monday's when I wonder why ♪ Good job. Let's do Tuesday. There's a few more letters in Tuesday, so it'll be a little bit quicker. It goes like this. ♪ Tuesday ♪ You remember the tune? ♪ Tuesday ♪ Now the down one, ♪ Tuesday ♪ The down one for me. ♪ Tuesday ♪ And now the one that goes up. ♪ Tuesday ♪ ♪ You sing it ♪ ♪ Tuesday ♪ ♪ Tuesday's when I really try ♪ Can you sing that line for me? ♪ Tuesday's when I really try ♪ Amazing! Let's do Tuesday together. Off we go. ♪ Tuesday ♪ ♪ Tuesday ♪ ♪ Tuesday ♪ ♪ Tuesday's when I really try ♪ Amazing! Last verse we're going to learn today, is about Wednesday. Now Wednesday is the longest day of the week. So that's lots of letters to fit in. And it's spelt very strangely. It's spelt like Wednesday, Wednesday. So that might help you with your spelling and writing down your letters. Let us try it. Lots to fit i remember. Listen. I think that you can sing along straight with me now that you know the tune. Listen to my first over how I put in the letters. ♪ Wednesday ♪ That's quick, isn't it? You sing ♪ Wednesday ♪ ♪ Wednesday ♪ ♪ Wednesday ♪ ♪ Wednesday's when I like to fly ♪ Can you sing that last part for me? ♪ Wednesday's when I like to fly ♪ You can use both arms I'm holding my board. I can do that if with both hands. Do you think we can sing our Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday song all the way through? I'll help you. I've got my letters here, and I'll sing along with you at the same time. So if you get lost, look at my board and listen to me straight up. Are you ready? It goes like this. ♪ Monday ♪ ♪ Monday ♪ ♪ Monday ♪ ♪ Monday's when I wonder why ♪ ♪ Ready for Tuesday ♪ ♪ Tuesday ♪ ♪ Tuesday ♪ ♪ Tuesday ♪ ♪ Tuesday's when I really try ♪ Ready for Wednesday. If you check your arm ♪ Wednesday ♪ ♪ Wednesday ♪ ♪ Wednesday ♪ ♪ Wednesday's when I like to fly ♪ Really, really good everybody. We're going to learn the spellings for Thursday and Friday in a later lesson. So keep practising Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, and we'll add on those new spellings later on in the unit. Now we're going to be recapping our story and the story map that we made in unit seven. So now's the time to get yours so that you can do the same. So pause the video now, so that you can get your unit seven, Honey and Trouble story map. So here is the story map that I made in unit seven for our Honey and Trouble story. Should we talk through it together? You can move your finger along your story map. Here we go. So once there was a lady who kept bees and made honey. And she was walking through the forest on her way to market and she was singing a song. Do you remember how it goes? It went. ♪ I am going to market ♪ ♪ to market ♪ ♪ to market. ♪ ♪ I am going to market ♪ ♪ to sell my honey. ♪ Just then, the lady fell and tripped on a stone that was lying on the floor in the forest. Her honey pot flew up into the air and crushed down to the floor, smashing into 100 pieces. "Oh! why do you give me so much trouble," said the woman. And she stormed off home. Up in the trees. A foolish little monkey was listening to this whole situation. He had not learned very many words, Cause he hadn't gone to school yet. And so he heard the lady's exclamation and run down the tree, sticking his finger into the sticky sweet liquid. I like this, said the monkey. This must be trouble. I like trouble. It's my favourite thing in the whole world. I would want to get some more trouble. So off he went to see his friend, brother elephant. Here's brother elephant's nostril now. He says, "Brother elephant, "I really like trouble. "It's my favourite thing in the whole world, "and I want see if you can give me some." "Are you sure?" Said brother elephant. Swaying his long trunk. "Oh yes certainly!" said the monkey. So brother elephant took his long trunk and he whipped monkey across his bottom. "Oww" said monkey. "I wonder why brother elephant did that. "I'm going to go and ask us tiger." So off he went to see his friend sister tiger. "Sister tiger," said monkey. "I really like trouble. "It's my new favourite thing in the whole world. "I really like trouble. "And I want to know "if you have any that you could give me. "Are you sure?" Says sister tiger. "Oh yes certainly!" Said the monkey. As sister tiger took out her long, sharp claws and swept monkey across his face. "Oww" said monkey. I wonder why sister tiger did that? I'm going to ask brother buffalo. So off he went to see his friend brother buffalo. "Brother buffalo." said the monkey. "I really really like trouble. "It's my new favourite thing in the whole world. "I was wondering if you have any trouble "that you could give me?" "Are you sure?" said brother buffalo. "Oh, yes, I'm certain", said the monkey. As brother buffalo lowered his head with his big, long, sharp horns, and he's scooped the monkey in the tummy. "Oww," said monkey. I wonder why brother buffalo did that. I'm going to go and see the wise woman of the forest. So off he went to the wise woman of the forest. Who lived in a hut in a beautiful forest clearing. And he knocked on her door. She let him in. "Oh wise woman at the forest," said the monkey. "I found my new favourite thing in the whole world. "It's trouble. "I really really like trouble "and I wonder if there's any that you could give me?" Are you sure? Said the wise woman of the forest, watching with a big smile on her face. "Oh yes certainly!" said the monkey. Okay, said wise woman at the forest. I have some that I can give you. And she handed him a big bag. Take this bag to the edge of the forest where there are no trees said the wise woman. Open it up. You will see it is full of trouble. "Oh, thank you so much." Said the money. And he skipped off with the bag to the edge of the forest. Soon as he got somewhere where there was no trees just like the wise woman said, he started to open it up. Hmm, smell like trouble, thought the monkey and he opened it up. In that bag here in the story map, were three enormous black dogs. They snarled at the monkey and chased him all the way around the area at the edge of the forest. Monkey screeched out in terror and run back towards the forest as fast as his legs could carry him, until he found a tree that he could climb up and escape from the dogs. Once they'd gone away. He sadly climbed down and went off home. At home, his mother asked him what was wrong, and he told her the whole story. "Oh, you poor thing," said his mum. I don't think that's what you wanted at all. And she opened up her cupboard and got down a big pot. It's not trouble you wanted. It's honey. Ashe she took off the lid. monkey, got his finger and dipped it into the sticky, sweet liquid. It's not trouble. That's honey. Do you remember our story all the way through? Remember, we did our mood map. We've done our stepping to get that story into our head. So hopefully, you know really well by now. And we're going to be using the story map to help us recycle our story and make brand new characters today. We're going to be updating our story map. So we're going to be changing some things in the story. When you recycle. We might change all kinds of different things. We might change what the story is set. We might change What the problem of the story is, and we might change the characters, and that is what we are going to do for our story. We are going to change the characters in Honey and Trouble. What you will need are some little bits of paper or some sticky notes. That's what I have, that you can use to put on top of your old story map. So get those now if you haven't got them already, and meet me back here. Sticky Notes. So, we are going to change all of our animal characters. So the first thing we're going to change is our monkey character. And I thought it'd be a nice idea to change our monkey into a bird, because birds live up in the trees and we haven't got any bird characters in our story. Now the story of Honey and Trouble originally comes from Africa, but I changed my story already. I've already recycled it to make it so that all the animals come from India and South Asia. So I've chosen three Indian birds to use for my story. So, I've got here an eagle, that's a crested Eagle. We've got here a stork. It's a black stork. And an Indian peacock. So, if you would like you can choose one of the animals that I've got here. Or you can choose your own. Think I'm going to choose let me get myself sticky note. I'm going to choose a stork. So I'm going to get a sticky note, just like I had before and I'm just going to do a quick drawing of the stork, just like we did when we did our story map. Going to give him a big long beak. going to give him some long spindly legs. You see. From my stork and I'm going to write the word, it's on the slides that you can copy it. So I'm going to write stork. And what I'm going to do is I am going to stick up my stork on top of my monkey to show that I have swapped my monkey for my stork. The next thing we're going to change is the elephant. Now, I was thinking about some different ways that our characters could hurt the monkey when he asked for trouble. So I've chosen three animals that bite. So I have got a crocodile. So this is a mother crocodile you find those in India. We've got a python. That's an Indian rock Python. And we have got a cobra, Indian cobra. So if you would like to choose one of these Animals or you can choose your own. It's your choice. I think I'm going to get a sticky note. And I think I'm going to choose the python. So I'm going to choose, we're going to draw a little head for the python. A long forked tongue. And a big windy body looks like a big shape. It's pretty big sound. So I'm going to do that. I might even do some dark shapes along my snake because that's what Indian persons do. But remember, these pictures aren't really, really important. They're just for you to use to help you with your recycling. So they don't have to be a huge amazing piece of art. Just nice and quick. Here's my Python. I am going to write the word python on this one. And this will help me remember when I'm doing my writing. So that's P and the I sound in python is spelled Y So I'm going to to write the letter Y, Python. And I am going to stick my Python over the top of my elephant, because I'm using a python instead of an elephant. The next one I am going to swap is the tiger. Now, a tiger swipes the monkey across his face, didn't he? So I've chosen three other animals with nice sharp claws that the monkey could get hurt in the face by. So I've got here a leopard, a sloth bear, which is the smallest type of bear, but they'll still give you a swipe, and a jackal, they're related to wolves. They look like like little wolf or like big dogs that you get them in India. So I think I'm going to go with the jackal. I think the Jackal looks good. We've had a big cat already, so why not a big dog? So he's got a bit of a a Wolfy-Foxy kind of shaped face with big fairy ears. He's got kind of black marks on his face. You're going to put those in. Got a body a bit like a dog. Really what kind of dog tail and paws. This is like a golden jackal. That's the kind of jackal that you get in India. I think that'll do. Here's my jackal. And I'm going to sound it out and I can look at the spelling on my screen as well. J A C K A L And I'm going to stick around jackal over the top of my Tiger. Because I'm using it instead of my tiger. And the last thing that we are going to recycle, we need a new sticky note is we are going to recycle the buffalo. Now the buffalo uses his long, pointy horns, doesn't he? to skewer the monkey in the belly. Or in this story, it's going to be your peacock your stock or your Eagle. So I've got here a rhino because they've got a pokey-sharp horn, and antelope. And here I put a black bok. They are very, very fast antelope. And they've got these long curly and very pointy horns. And the deer. This is the spotted deer. They've got not really horns, but they are very long and pointy anyway. So you can choose or you can do one of your own. I'm going to choose the antelope I think. Give him quite a long neck. Give him a body and a little fluffy tail like a reindeer. It's got hooves not paws. It's a hoofed animal And long curly horns. They're amazing those are. Here's my antelope, and I'm going to write my word antelope, which I can copy from my slides. And I'm going to stick that over the top of my buffalo. Now that you've seen mine, why don't you now do yours if you haven't been doing it along with me already. If you need a bit of extra time, then pause the video now so that you can update your own story map. Feel free to go backwards in the slide. So if you can copy any of the animal pictures or spellings if you're not choosing your own. And here's my finished recycled story map, with my four new animals and my words. And that's it. We have started the process of recycling our Honey and Travel story. What was your favourite animal that you chose for your story today? My favourite animal that I chose today was the stork, because I like their long, spindly legs. What was your favourite? Could you tell me in a full sentence? My favourite animal was, tell your screen What good choices that you've made. In the next lesson, we are going to be using some of those techniques we used in lesson seven, to get our story into our heads, like stepping our story. So get yourselves and your feet ready for stepping. Remember, just like all of our Oak Classes, you can share your work with Oak National. If you'd like to, please ask your parent or carer to share your work on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter, tagging us at Oak National and hashtag #LearnWithOak. And that is it for our learning today. I hope you enjoyed thinking of some new exciting animals for your Honey and Troubles story. Going to leave you with some trivia today. So see if you can have a sensible guess on my question. You might have chosen a peacock as your new main character for your story. Now peacocks are very exciting they are from India. And over the body of peacocks, have those beautiful blue green tummies and those fabulous tail feathers, that actually sort of come out of their lower back not really their tail at all. it look like they have those eyes on them and they are lovely. and they have a huge fan of them on the back. How many of these lovely eye feathers, Do you think they have? Have a sensible guess and I will tell you at the start of lesson two. Bye.
