A PDF file of 20 pages for KS1 and KS2 looking at the celebration of Lent. The children will read about the reasons for fasting, the importance of the number 40, reflection and self-discipline, Jesus' suffering and pain, the origins of Mothering Sunday, Shrove Tuesday, Ash Wednesday and the use of the colour purple in churches. Having read the various fact sheets, they will then complete worksheets on what they have learned, poetry and story writing, writings about their mothers, words they have learned and their meanings, a few drawing activities and facts about my favourite pancake. A great resource as a lead up to Easter. I have also included a Powerpoint presentation in the price which teachers may wish to use in class or as an assembly.

This is a 24 page PDF file to be printed out and used before reading the book, while reading the book and after reading the book. It is printer friendly as I have used very few colour graphics. It is suitable for KS2. A powerpoint has also been included. There are a variety of writing activities which can be printed out as an entire booklet for each child or as individual pages for working walls. I have tried to empathise with the characters especially August. In the workbook I have asked the children to look at the traits and feelings of the characters, their own feelings, to imagine they themselves are August and to write conversations and argumentative writings.Bullying and Bravery must also be written about by the children. I have also included designing a new cover, writing a book blurb, a book review and favourite character and part of the story. An essential resource for a fabulous book.
