Paddington’s Post (Week 2 - based on the original stories by Michael Bond) The second part of the book is included in this unit of work. We will continue following Paddington’s adventures and looking at the mail as we go along.

LO: To infer Inference is a tricky reading skill. It’s all about looking for clues using the pictures and words. Watch this video to learn more: https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zs44jxs/articles/zqmyw6f There are several activities for today’s learning. They can be found on pages 7, 8 and 9.

Thursday 25.2.21
LO: To use adverbs There are lots of different types of adverbs but we are going to use the ones ending in ly. The letters ly can be used as a suffix to add on to the end of an adjective. The adjective quick describes something. If we add ly on to the end, we make the adverb quickly. An adverb describes how the verb is being done, e.g. Paddington ran quickly. Watch the video to find out about adverbs. https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/z8mxrwx/articles/zqghtyc There are several activities for adverbs on pages 14 – 17.
Friday 26.2.21
LO: To compose directions to Mr Gruber’s shop Look back at the map from Part 1 of the story. Paddington drew all of his important places. We are going to use some command sentences and adverbs to give directions from 32 Windsor Gardens to Mr Gruber’s shop. When we give directions, they are similar to instructions because we are telling someone what to do! Use the map to write some directions. I have included a checklist and list of skills to use. You can then edit and review your writing. The resources you need for today’s lesson are on pages 18 – 24.
Make sure that you have permission from a grown up before going online.
When we infer, we become detectives looking for extra information. For example:
1. What can I see? 2. What can I infer? 3. What emotions can
I infer?
Paddington He’s reading something
A house or a street
He’s lost He’s looking for
something
Worried Lost Sad
Now it’s your turn. Look at each picture and say what you can see. Then use your detective skills to think about what that tells you. Sometimes what you can infer and emotions become the same. Don’t worry if you can’t add anything into column 3.
Choose a bossy verb for the start of each sentence:
____________ a map of Peru on the floor. ____________ your marmalade sandwich.
____________ on the big wooden door. ____________ Aunt Lucy’s letter.
knock read draw eat
Tick the command sentence:
What time is it Paddington?
I found him in the train station.
Put that marmalade jar down!
Tick the command sentence:
Run to Mr Gruber’s shop.
Where is my letter?
He made a mess everywhere.

Thursday: To use adverbs
There are lots of different types of adverbs but today we are going to use the ones ending in ly. The letters ly can be used as a suffix to add on to the end of an adjective. The adjective quick describes something. If we add ly on to the end, we make the adverb quickly. An adverb describes how the verb is being done, e.g.
Paddington ran. How did Paddington run? He ran quickly.
Paddington ran quickly.
Can you find and highlight the adverbs below?
When we spell words with the suffixes ing and ed or er and est, some words don’t change at all. This is the same when we add ly:
kind + ly = kindly beautiful + ly = beautifully
quiet + ly = quietly careful + ly = carefully
verb adverb
15
Thursday: To use adverbs (Y1 – no spelling change)
Find and highlight the words ending in ly below:
One day I woke up and saw that the sun was shining brightly. I quietly tiptoed down the stairs and went outside to play nicely. I saw a squirrel so I slowly crept towards it to see if I could get a closer look. It ran away quickly!
+ ly
slow
quick
soft
rude
brave
loud
Choose one of your new words to add to each sentence below:
Wolfie howled ________________________________.
Paddington brushed his fur ______________________________.
The boy and the penguin sailed across the ocean _________________________.
Boxton ran through the streets of London _________________________.
Next step: Now write 2 sentences using adverbs ending in ly:
There are usually four spelling rules to remember when adding suffixes. See below:
Adding ly
When adding the suffix ly, we don’t use all of these rules:
For words that end in a consonant and a ‘y’, change the ‘y’ to an ‘i’ and then add the suffix.
For example:
happy + ly = happily
angry + ly = angrily
There are some other types of words where the spelling changes but you will learn about those in KS2. For most other words, we just add ly. We don’t even drop the e (unless it’s le – you will learn about that in KS2!).
Rule 1: For words ending in two consonants, add the suffix to the root word.
For example: smart + er = smarter
Rule 2: For words that have a short vowel sound followed by a consonant, double the last letter then add the suffix.
For example: mop + ed = mopped
Rule 3: For words ending in a consonant followed by an ’e’, you need to drop the ‘e’ before you add the suffix.
For example: fierce + est = fiercest
Rule 4: For words that end in a consonant and a ‘y’, change the ‘y’ to an ‘i’ and then add the suffix.
For example: cry + ed = cried
However if the suffix you want to add starts with an ‘i', you keep the original ‘y’ so that you don’t end up with a double ‘i’.
For example: cry + ing = crying
Vowels are the letters a, e, i, o and u. Consonants are all the other letters.
Root words are the basic words that are used to form other words. They haven't had prefixes or suffixes added to them yet.
Have you ever heard of Mr Gruber? He owns a lovely antique shop that is full of interesting things. I’m going to tell you how to get from Paddington’s house to Mr Gruber’s shop.
1. When you step out of the house, turn right and go down the street towards the grassy park.
2. When you get to the park, walk carefully on the pavement next to the fountain. Look out for the black taxis.
3. At the crossroads turn right and go past the park entrance. Hopefully you will get to Portobello Road. Watch out for the red buses!
4. Turn left down Portobello Road and walk quickly past the other antique shops. Mr Gruber’s lovely shop is the green one at the end. Look through the low window and you’ll happily see lots of amazing antiques.
5. Choose which antique you would like to buy!
