Inspired by: The Man Whose Mother was a Pirate - Week 5

Come on a journey with a difference as the man pushes his mother in a wheel barrow, to smell the sea again. Travel from their home in the town, through the countryside to the coast - lots of opportunities to link learning to where you live or to a contrasting environment. The activities in this 2nd Grade English Lesson are clearly linked to objectives for composition, comprehension, grammar and punctuation using the book as the stimulus to learning. The engaging ideas provide super starting points for Elementary School learning and are driven by probing questions.
