﻿Hello everyone! My name is Miss Barron, and I love stories. I also love words, and I like to play around with words sometimes, so I've got a tongue twister to start us off today. My tongue twister is: Mischievous monkey Marley made a marvellous mouldy mess. I wonder if you can say that? My turn, your turn. Mischievous monkey Marley made a marvellous mouldy mess. Your turn, say it to your screen now. Well done! I wonder if you notice something about my tongue twister. What did all the words start with? What sound did they start with? Can you tell me in a full sentence now? They start with the sound. You're right. They all start with the sound mm, don't they? Now I'm going to have fun with my tongue twister. I'm going to try and say it three times as fast as I can without making a mistake. Are you ready? Mischievous monkey Marley made a marvellous mouldy mess, Mischievous monkey Marley made a marvellous mouldy mess, Oh no, my tongue got all twisted. I wonder if you can have a go at saying that tongue twister three times as fast as you can, without getting your tongue twisted. But don't worry if it does, because that's the fun with tongue twisters. Pause the video now and have a go. Now then, let's run through our learning for today. We are going to do a spelling activity to start. Then we're going to re-tell the second problem in the story, the problem for the hat maker's son. We're going to explore that a bit more through some role play, and then we're going to write a poem that we might even sing, about how the hat maker feels about that problem. So this is what you're going to need today for your learning. You are going to need something to write on, so an exercise book, or a piece of paper, and something to write with, a pencil or a pen. So pause the video now, and go and get those things if you need to. Super job, you are back with everything you need. So remember our spellings this week are about vowels and consonants, and in lesson six, I sang a song about them. Do you remember? Well, we're going to sing that song again now, to help us remember what vowels and consonants are. I'd really love it if you'd join in with me. ♪ There are two types of letters in the alphabet ♪ ♪ Just two types of letters in the alphabet ♪ ♪ A, E, I, O, U, are the vowels ♪ ♪ A, E, I, O, U, are the vowels ♪ ♪ The rest of the letters are called ♪ ♪ Consonants, consonants ♪ Okay, you can definitely join in with me now. I know you know the words. ♪ There are two types of letters in the alphabet ♪ ♪ Just two types of letters in the alphabet ♪ ♪ A, E, I, O, U, are the vowels ♪ ♪ A, E, I, O, U, are the vowels ♪ ♪ The rest of the letters are called ♪ ♪ Consonants, consonants ♪ There we go. There's our vowel and consonants song for today, well done for joining in, team! Now, let's put the learning from this song into practise. I am going to read a word on the screen. After I've read it, I want you to pause the video, and say the vowels that you can spot in that word, and then the consonants. So I'm going to show you now what you're going to do. After. After. The vowels are A and E. The consonants are F, T and R. So that's what I want you to do, when you come across these next words. So, let me read the next word for you. The word is called. The word is called. So you're going to say, "The vowels are mm." The consonants are mm." Pause the video now and have a go at that. How did you get on? Let's go through it. The vowels are A and E. The consonants are C, L and D, and there are two L's, aren't there, in the middle of called? Well done, good job. Let's do the next word. The word is many. Many. Have a look now, say your full sentences. The vowels are. The consonants are. Pause the video and have a go. How did you get on? Ooh, this one only has one vowel doesn't it? The vowel is A. The consonants are M, N and Y. Well done. Fantastic job, let's have a look at the next word. The next word is where. Where. So, say in a full sentence, "The vowels are mm. The consonants are mm." Off you go, pause your screen and have a go. Fantastic, how did you get on? You're working really hard on these today. Now, let me have a look. The vowels are, well, there's only one vowel, but it's there twice. The vowel is E, and it's in there twice, isn't it? The consonants are W, H and R. Fantastic job with your spellings today. Well done for practising spotting your vowels and consonants in some of your tricky high-frequency words. I am really impressed! Now this is an extra challenge for you. I wonder, if you feel up to it, can you have a go at writing five words? Five words that each use one of these vowels: A, E, I, O, U. So there's my example, put. I took the vowel U, and wrote it in a word that I know, put. Can you have a go at writing your own words that contain some of those vowels? Pause the video now and have a go. Now let's just use our story map to help us re-tell the whole story quickly, just to remind us of the main events all the way through. Once there was a hat maker. He was walking through the forest on his way to market to sell his hats. It was a hot day, so he fell asleep under a tree. When he woke up, all of his hats were gone! "Who's stolen my hats?" he thought. He looked up in the tree and saw a crowd of monkeys, each one of them wearing his hats. "Give me back my hats!" he shouted at them, but the monkeys just copied. Then in frustration, he threw his hat down on the floor. Because monkeys love to copy, what monkeys see, monkeys do, they did the same thing! They threw the hats down on the floor, and the hat maker got his hats back! He was delighted. He sold all of his hats that day at market, and then went home and told his son the story of how he tricked those monkeys into giving him his hats back. Years passed, and the hat maker's son became the hat maker himself. One day, he was walking to sell his hats, and he too fell asleep under a tree. When he woke up, all of his hats were gone, but he wasn't worried because he knew where they were. He looked up into the tree and smiled when he saw those monkeys wearing his hats. He said, "I know this story, so I'm going to get my hats back. My dad told me this story, I know what to do." But those monkeys didn't move a muscle when the hat maker's son threw his hat to the ground, and so he did it again and again and again! He kept throwing his hat to the ground, but the monkeys did nothing. And then the chief monkey's son climbed down the tree and said to the hat maker's son, "You think you're so clever because your dad told you stories, but our dad told us stories too, and this time we're keeping the hats." And off they went into the forest wearing the hats, and the hat maker's son went home with nothing. Now, if you have your story map from lesson two, then pause the video now and have a go at telling the story from your map, like I just did. If you don't have your map, then you can use mine on the screen to help you. Now in this unit, remember we're looking at problems, and so we've already looked at the problem for the hat maker, haven't we? Now we're going to be looking at the problem for the hat maker's son, so we're going to be focusing on these last two pictures on our story map today. Here's where we find out what the problem is for the hat maker's son. So here I've taken the last two pictures from my story map and I've added to them, so that I can imagine that problem scene for the hat maker's Son in a bit more detail. I want to imagine it really clearly for the hat maker's son at the end, so let me re-tell that section again, using these pictures to help me. Listen carefully, because I'm going to get you to have a go at that yourself in a minute. When the hat maker's son woke up, his basket was empty. He wasn't worried. He knew exactly where his hats were. He looked up in the tree, and saw the monkeys wearing them, and smiled. "I know how to get my hats back," he said, and the monkeys just copied in their monkey-talk. "My dad told me this story," and the monkeys copied again in their monkey-talk. So, the hat maker's son took his hat off his head and threw it on the floor, but the monkeys didn't move a muscle. The Hat Maker's son was confused. He couldn't believe it! So he took the hat off his head again, and threw it on the floor again, but still the monkeys did nothing. Well, the hat maker's son was getting very angry at this point. "Come on, monkeys," he said, "Copy me, come on, take your hats off, and throw them on the floor. That's what you're meant to do. That's how this story goes." But the monkeys did not move, and in the end, the chief monkey's son climbed down the tree until he was face to face with the hat maker's son and said, "You think you're so clever because your dad told you stories. Well, our dad told us stories too, and this time we're keeping the hats!" And off they went into the forest wearing the hats, and the hat maker's son was left with nothing. He sold nothing at market that day. Now I want you to draw your own pictures to map out the detail of the problem for the hat maker's son. They can look like mine if you'd like, although they don't have to. If you'd like to make them more of your own, then you can. Now, I want you to keep hold of these drawings, because they're going to help you with your writing in the next few lessons. So draw your pictures, and then re-tell this section of the story in a bit more detail, like I just showed you. Pause the video now and have a go. It's time to do some drama, to help us really get into the mind of the hat maker's son, and explore what he was thinking and feeling when those monkeys wouldn't give him his hats back. And I'm going to do that in-role as the hat maker's son, which is why I've got my hat on, to help me get into role. I'm also going to be playing the role of the hat maker's dad. I'm going to be phoning home to tell my dad all about what happened. Now, listen carefully, because I'm going to show you how to do it, and then I want you to have a go afterwards. Hello, who's calling? Oh, Dad, it's me. I'm so glad that you answered. I've just had the most terrible day. Oh really, son? Well, tell me what's happened. Well, you'll never believe it, but the same thing happened to me that happened to you all those years ago. I fell asleep under that same tree in the forest, and when I woke up, all of my hats were gone. And how did you feel about that? Well, I wasn't worried, Dad, because you told me that story so many times, I knew what was going to happen. I knew the monkeys had them, and I knew how to get them back. All I had to do was throw my hat on the floor. And what happened next? Well, I did just that. I threw my hat on the floor, but nothing happened! I couldn't believe it. Those monkeys didn't move. And how did you feel about that? Well, I was extremely confused! I was puzzled. Why weren't they doing what I knew they should do? You told me this story, I knew what had to happen. I throw my hats down, they throw their hats down, because monkeys always copy. But when I threw my hats down, they just didn't do anything. That does sound frustrating. What did you do next? Well, after I'd thrown my hats down again and again and again, in the end, the chief monkey's son came down the tree and spoke to me. What did you think about that? Well, he spoke to me and said, "You think you're so clever, because your dad told you stories. Our dad told us stories too, and now we're keeping the hats." And so the monkeys have kept the hats, Dad, they've kept them and run off into the forest, wearing them! Oh my goodness, so you've got no hats left? How do you feel about that? Dad, I feel so sad. I feel sad and angry, because now I've got no hats to sell at market, and I can't make any money, and I have to go home empty-handed. Right, Dad, well, I'm going to have to get to market, and see if there's anything else I can find to sell. So I better go, but I'll speak to you tomorrow, bye! Now, if you'd like, why don't you have a go? If you're on your own, why don't you do it like I did and play both roles? You can play the hat maker's son, and your dad, the hat maker. Or you might like to ask somebody in your household to play the game with you. Now, when you're playing the role of the dad, as the hat maker, here are the key questions that you need to ask. What happened next? What were you thinking? And how did you feel about that? And when you're the hat maker, you can use these sentence stems to answer. I thought mm. I felt mm, because. Pause the video now and have a go. Now, we're going to look at this section of the story as a poem. I've written a simple poem about this section of the story for the hat maker's son. Let me read it to you. I know what to do. Throw down my hat. Come on then, copy me! Now I'm sad and angry. So that's my poem, and it follows a simple pattern. Let me tell you what it is. I know what to do. That line tells me what the hat maker's son is thinking. Throw down my hat. That line tells me what he's doing. It's an action sentence, isn't it? Throw down my hat. Come on then, copy me! That's what the hat maker's son is saying. And the last line, now I'm sad and angry. That's what he's feeling. So my poem follows this simple pattern: a line about what he's thinking, a line about what's he's doing, a line about what's he saying, and line about what's he's feeling. Now, should we sing it? I don't know if you know the tune to the nursery rhyme, "The Grand Old Duke of York." I'm going to sing it to you, see if you remember it. ♪ The Grand Old Duke of York ♪ ♪ he had 10,000 men ♪ ♪ he marched them up to the top of the hill ♪ ♪ and he marched them down again ♪ Now we're going to use that tune, and put it to my poem, so that we can sing my poem. We can turn a poem into a song! How fun is that? So the poem's going to go like this as a song. Ready? ♪ I know what to do ♪ ♪ Throw down my hat ♪ ♪ Come on then, copy me ♪ ♪ Now I'm sad and angry ♪ You ready to sing with me? ♪ I know what to do ♪ ♪ Throw down my hat ♪ ♪ Come on then, copy me ♪ ♪ Now I'm sad and angry ♪ One more time, let's go. See if you can do some actions with it as well. ♪ I know what to do ♪ ♪ Throw down my hat ♪ ♪ Come on then, copy me ♪ ♪ Now I'm sad and angry ♪ Well done, you are superstars today. Well done for joining in with that poem! Maybe you can pause the video, and watch it back and sing it again, maybe even until you know it off by heart! Here's my poem on the screen for you to see really clearly, just in case you want to practise reading, or performing it from here, or you might want to use it to have a go at the challenge task that's coming up. Now, if you feel up for a challenge today, and you want to go above and beyond, then why not have a go at creating your own poem that follows the same pattern as mine? So that's one sentence about what the hat maker's son was thinking, one about what he was feeling, one about what he was doing, and one about what he was saying. Now I've given you some sentence starters to help you if you need them. You could have a go at creating your own four-line poem, and maybe even put a tune to it yourself. Pause the video now and have a go at that, if you'd like to. That's the end of our learning today. Well done, I am super impressed. You have worked really hard. I wonder what your favourite moment was. My favourite moment was singing the poem song, because I think singing's fun. What was your favourite moment? Can you tell me in a full sentence now? My favourite moment was mm. Tell your screen now. Amazing to hear that! Now, just before we leave, I want to leave you with a question. I wonder, if you were the hat maker, what advice would you give your son? What would you tell him to do when the monkeys ran off with his hats? What would you tell him to do about it? I wonder. Do you think you could have a think about that, and then tell me at the start of the next lesson? But for now, bye!
