Aliens Are Not Adapted To Our Planet - Activity Pack

The "Aliens Are Not Adapted To Our Planet" activity pack, illustrated by Annalisa Jones and penned by Sally Anne Jones, is a delightful educational resource from Guinea Pig Education. It's designed to engage children in reading by having them sound out words and practise spelling in a fun and interactive way. The booklet encourages grown-ups to get involved by listening to their child read, helping them call out words, and checking their spelling in a workbook. The activity pack suggests rewarding successful attempts, perhaps with stickers, as a way to motivate young learners.

Within the story, we meet Zoggy, an alien with metallic legs that do not bend, making it impossible for him to kick a football. Despite his physical limitations, Zoggy's friend Dan finds a way for him to participate in the game by suggesting he plays as the goalkeeper. The narrative is not only entertaining but also educational, with exercises that teach children about verb conjugation, such as adding 's' or 'es' to make words plural or changing 'y' to 'ies'. The pack includes a list of words for children to practise spelling, ranging from 'craft' and 'ball' to 'buzz' and 'adapt', helping them to improve their literacy skills while enjoying the story of Zoggy's earthly adventures.
