Early Morning Task:

We all have a favourite book (sometimes more than one)!

Your Early Morning Task is to redesign the cover of your favourite book.

Some things for you to think about:

● What part of the story would most capture the interest of a new reader?

● What was your favourite part of the book?● If the book was published now, how would the

cover have changed? ● What font, colours and style would suit the

story?

Story starter comicsEnglish

Three of us. We were the only ones left, the only ones to make it to the island.

It was there and then it had gone, why would a rabbit be on my bathroom floor?

Icy fingers gripped my arm in the darkness.

unforgiving wind slashed at his face and the rain danced its evil dance upon his head as he tried to get his bearings on the isolated beach.

Cold and wet, tired and exhausted she made her way along the path through the forest.

"Help me!" Help me!" Came the call from behind the steel door.

Choosing one of the starters to the right, create a comic strip which continues on the story. You can take it in any direction you wish - be as creative as possible!

Art/DT A bedroom for my favourite character

Choose a character from a book you are familiar with? What makes them, them? Bedrooms reflect a

person’s personality and so your design should reflect your characters’! Think about the things in your own

bedroom: did you choose the wallpaper, duvet cover, bed? How long ago? What things do you have lying

about devices, clothes, homework or old toys? Is it tidy or messy? All these things are small clues about

what kind of person you/your character is! You could keep your chosen character a secret if they are well

known and see if your friends can guess who your room belongs to!

Tweet an author

Letter’s are SOOO last year! You have 280 characters to say ANYTHING (behave, year 6) to your favourite author - what would you say?

How much you love their books and why?

Do you want to know more about something that happened?

Perhaps about how their book impacted

you?

Are you dying for them to write a sequel? Tell them why!

Do you relate to one of their characters? Tell them

why!
