Learning Experiences:
1. Introduction:
(How will I engage the learners?)
Students are asked to gather around on the mat.

The students are told they will be asked to read the
story with the teacher and then answer some
questions.
Students are introduced to the book and asked
what they think the book may be about judging by
the front cover and title.
2. Sequence of learning experiences: (What will you do to help the

students achieve the learning objectives? What tasks and activities will
the students be involved in to help achieve the learning objectives?)
The book is read with the students. The students

are encouraged to join in reading out loud. The
book is My Two Blankets by Irena Kobald and
illustrated by Freya Blackwood.
While still sitting on the mat the students are shown
the worksheet with the four questions divided into
four boxes.
The four boxes are read out and the teacher asks if
they can explain what each box means.
Students are to raise their hand to each box to give
the answer.
The teacher creates a large scale question sheet on
the whiteboard with the four boxes. With the group,
the students are asked about each segment of the
box and asked for questions that fit in the box. A
student can write the answer on the whiteboard and
the rest of the students can write the answer on
their worksheet.
The teacher gives prompts when needed.
The teacher tells the students they will be given
another story and then will need to complete the
question sheet.
The story is read out with the students. The
students are once again encouraged to read out

asked to raise their hands to share their answers
with the class. Each student can give one answer at
a time to allow more students the opportunity to
answer.
The story is read one more time with the class to
discuss whether there was anything the students
may have missed.
If there is time the students can play a game by
asking questions using the who, what, when,
where, why, how cards. This can be played with the
whole class or in their groups of 6.
