Video: To box up a recycled story

﻿Hello everyone. Miss Brittain, Cedric and Little Duck here for your sixth lesson of this unit. Today, we are going to be boxing up to plan a recycled story. We're going to recycle the story of the little duck by thinking about her problems and how she overcomes them. In today's lesson, we'll stats up about nursery rhymes then we're going to be recycling and planning new ideas using our story map, and then we're going to box up our recycled story. For this lesson, you will need an exercise book or a piece of paper and a pencil, super imagination and your teddy talk partner or something else. if you use something different. You can pause the video now to go and get whatever you need and then press play once you return. Before we begin our nursery rhyme today, Cedric, I've got a tongue twister. Are you ready? busy buzzing bumblebees. I've got to say quicker than that? Busy buzzing bumblebees, Busy buzzing bumblebees, busy buzzing bumblebees. That is really tricky. Can you have a go at home, children? Busy buzzing bumblebees. Now it's time for our nursery rhyme. And today I've got a new nursery rhyme called "10 green bottles." Okay, our song starts with 10 green bottles. So can you count 10 with me, children? One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 10 green bottles sitting on the wall. Are you ready? Join in once you get the hang of it. ♪ 10 green bottles sitting on a wall ♪ ♪ 10 green bottles sitting on wall ♪ ♪ And if one green bottle should accidentally fall, ♪ ♪ There'll be nine green bottles, ♪ ♪ Sitting on a wall ♪ ♪ Nine green bottles sitting on a wall ♪ ♪ Nine green bottles sitting on a wall ♪ ♪ And if one green bottle should accidentally fall, ♪ ♪ There'll be eight green bottles ♪ ♪ Sitting on a wall ♪ See if you can pause the video here and go all the way down to one green bottle. Today, we are going to be recycling our story. But what does that mean? Well, to recycle a story, it means to reuse the story and keep it the same, but change something in it. This might be the characters, or it might be how the story ends. Because a building block we are focusing on is all about problems that matter, this is what we're going to focus on, and we're going to make changes to the characters who help Little Duck. Now that I've got my box plan, I can clearly see the main events in the story and how the Little Duck overcomes the unfairness. So here you can see our story map from earlier on in the unit. We've got the Little Duck, the King who steals her money, she meets her ladder, then a river, then some bees and each of those things that she meets helps her when she comes across a problem. So the ladder helps her to get out of the hole, the river helps her to get out of the pot and the bees chase after the King at the end. I want us to recycle the story, but change the characters who help the Little Duck. So the ladder, the river, and yes, the ladder, the river and the bees. So let's start off having a think about the ladder. The ladder helps Little Duck to get out of the hole. I want you to have a think now, what else could help Little Duck get out of the hole? Tell your ted talk partner something else that could help Little Duck get out of the hole. Now I think a rope could help her get out of the hole. So instead of my ladder, I'm going to change it that Little Duck meets a rope. You might have something else, or a different idea, and that's okay too. Or you might like to use my idea so you can change your story map to change the characters. Now the next person that helps her is a river. What else could help Little Duck to get out of the pot, to smash our way out of the pot? I've got an idea, but you could pause the video now and come up with your own idea of what helps her get out of the pot. But if you're not feeling confident and you want to stick with me, that's fine. I think Little Duck could meet a hammer to help her smash through the pot lid. So I'm going to cross out the river and I'm going to draw a hammer instead. And if I'm changing that she meets a hammer, I need to change it where... Next to the pot too. 'Cause when you recycle things in the story, you've got to be careful because it might change other things that happen. And then finally she meets the bees who sting the King and chase them. Pause the video now if you want to come up with your own ideas about what could chase the King away. It could be some seagulls or rats or a lion. I'm going to choose ants. I want lots of ants to nibble at the King and chase him away. So I'm crossing out the bees and I'm drawing the ants instead. You might have thought of something different and that's absolutely fine, too. It's fantastic if you've come up with your own ideas. You might want to use some of these ideas and then think of your own for one or two, and that's fine as well. So now I've got my recycled story and I'm going to talk through that map really quickly. And you might want to talk through your map with your teddy talk partner. So there's a duck. She has some money and the King steals her money. She heads off to the palace and when she's walking to the palace through the forest, she meets a rope. The rope gets into her bag. She meets a hammer. The hammer gets into her bag. She meets some ants and they get into her bag. The King puts her in a hole and she uses a rope to get herself out. The King puts her into a pot with a lid and she uses a hammer to smash her way out. The King tries to grab her. So she uses the ants to chase after the King and nibble at him. And then she becomes queen. Pause the video now and have a go at talking through your map or talking through the this. Now we've recycled our ideas and changed some of them, we can put them into a box plan now, ready for our writing next. You may have done a box plan already if you've been in lessons with me before. But if you haven't, don't worry because you can always draw along with me. Feel free to pause the video at any time if there's a point where you need to catch up. So with my box plan, it needs two columns, you might want to ask an adult to help you draw this. And I'm going to split it up into five different sections. So one, two, three, four, and then five at the bottom. Now I'm going to number them down the side. Pause the video now, if you feel like you need to catch up to draw that bit. Okay, that's showing the five different sections in my story. On that side is the main event. And on the right side is the problem or how the Little Duck overcomes the problem. So the first event that happens in the story is we're at the duck's nest and in her nest, she has a bag of money. So I'm going to draw the nest and a bag of money. Now who comes to steal her money? The Kings, so I'm going to draw a crown there to show the King and that's the problem in that section of the story, that the King's steals her money, and it's not fair on Little Duck. So Little Duck goes off into the forest. That's the next main event. And here she meets the people that help her overcome her problems. Now, I am going to draw the rope, the hammer, and the ants. You might draw something else. If you changed the characters to something different than I did. And there are three people who are going to help her overcome her problem. So that's why I've put them in there in my box plan. Okay, the next event that happens is she gets to the castle and the King puts her into a hole. I'm going to draw the hole. And then the thing that helps her overcome this problem is the rope. So it's unfair that Little Duck was put into the hole but fair that the rope was able to help her out. Then the King put her into a pot, which was unfair again on Little Duck. And for me, I've used a hammer to smash out of the pot. You might have chose something different and that's okay too. And then finally, I've got the King tries to grab the Little Duck as a final problem she faces. And to overcome that problem, she asked the little ants for help, who nibble away at the King and make him run away. Again, your box plan might look a little bit different to my box plan. And if you are feeling confident enough to have a go and think of your own characters, but if not, you can always copy up mine. Remember if you need to, you can rewind the video to copy you have any bits that you've missed. I wonder if boxing up the story today helped you to recycle your ideas and helps you to think of new characters that could help the duck. I hope that it's made you feel ready to write your recycled story next lesson. I know sometimes it's a little bit nerve wracking, writing a new story with new ideas, but you've all done such a great job, and we will all work together. I think we'll finish on our song that we learned yesterday, "That's Not Fair." You can join in when you're ready, children. ♪ That's not fair, that's not fair ♪ ♪ The King's stole my money and that's not fair ♪ ♪ That's not fair, that's not fair ♪ ♪ You threw me in a hole and that's not fair ♪ ♪ That's not fair, that's not fair ♪ ♪ The King stole my money and that's not fair ♪ ♪ That's not fair, that's not fair ♪ ♪ You threw me in a pot and that's not fair ♪ ♪ This is fair, this is fair, ♪ ♪ I've got my money back and this is fair ♪ You can have a go at singing that song with your teddy talk partner. Great work today, children. And we'll see you in the next.
