Abigail’s Photo Album: Activities

Shared Reading · Year 4. An adult reads the questions and clues aloud. Children can talk, point, sign or choose an answer. For Jumbled Words, show the matching vocabulary word and build it together; children do not need to read independently.

Vocabulary

Read these five words from the story. Talk about what they mean.

structure: The way parts are organised.
originals: The first versions that copies come from.
rotates: Turns something around a point.
sequence: Things arranged in an order.
approved: Checked and agreed to by the responsible person.

Jumbled Words

Use the clue to make a word from the story. Drag the letters with a mouse or finger, or tap a letter and then a space.

Put the story in order

Drag the pictures into order from first to last with a mouse or finger. Or tap a picture, then tap where it should go. Use arrow keys to move a focused picture.

Tell the story

With an adult, organise copies of photographs of artwork into a small picture album. Ask a new user to find one group, follow its order and return.
