Use what thas been learnt about media and materials in original ways, thinking about uses and purposes. Talk about the features of the immediate environment and how environments might vary from one another. Use everyday language to talk about size, weight, capacity, position, distance, time and money to compare quantities and objects and to solve problems. Begin to understand that animals are different (e.g. reptiles and mammals) and need different things. After recapping on what a recount is, you will look at an example as a class. Together, you will identify and discuss the features that the children need to use in their own writing, including time conjunctions, personal pronouns and past tense verbs. Using this information and their plans from the previous lesson, children will then write their own recounts of a trip to the pet shop.

In this final lesson, children will use their knowledge of the events in the book, The Great Pet Sale, to write a recount of an imagined trip to the pet shop. Count reliably with numbers from 1 to 20, say which number is one more or one less than a given number. Listen to stories, accurately anticipating key events and respond to what they hear with relevant comments, questions or actions.most obvious of these is that the total value of all the pets for sale in the shop is one pound. This means it can be used as a starting point for money activities with children working with money up to the value of a pound. Show sensitivity to others’ needs and feelings, and form positive relationships with adults and other children. The above video may be from a third-party source.

As a class, they will discuss what the shop was like, what animals they saw, and whether they bought an animal. Children will then use this information to complete a recount plan, using the provided structured sheet. In the alternative suggested activity, children are challenged to put themselves in the rat's shoes and improve a given recount plan of its day. A young boy walks into a pet shop, a little brown rat is confident that he is much more interesting that the plethora of exotic animals this shop sells. To enjoy a story, discuss ideas and make predictions. Talk with confidence about their own experiences.Be confident when speaking in a familiar group, talk about ideas, and choose the resources needed for the chosen activity. Look after the newly arrived class pet, listen to a vet, discuss how vets help animals, role-play being a vet, weigh pets, measure out ‘medicine’ and bandage injuries. Listen to stories, accurately anticipating key events and respond to what is heard with relevant comments, questions or actions. The story is full of wonderful opportunities for developing mathematical thinking and the maths box I have put together is well worn! I have used it in maths activities and lessons with children from Foundation Stage to Y4 in a variety of ways – at the beginning of lessons to set the context for work with money, in the main part of the lesson using the ‘pets’ for differentiated money or problem solving activities and in plenaries as a novel summary of the mathematical thinking in the lesson. I have linked the ideas with play opportunities in a class ‘pet shop’ or ‘vets’ in the role-play area. participate in discussion about what is read to them, taking turns and listening to what others say
