Recognise the use of repetitive language in a traditional tale.
On Monday, we made predictions about what would happen in the story from what we already knew and the clues given to us on the front cover.
Today we are going to read through the story again and create a story map to help remember the important events. One way to help us remember is to join in with language that is repeated again and again.

In what ways do we use our world?
Talk to your partner to come up with 3 ways. It might be as simple as a walk in the park or picking flowers for a family member.
If humans have the power to use the planet, do they have the power to destroy it?
Can you think of something humans do that might be harmful to Earth?
Let's listen to a story together to see if there can be a change that is positive.

Your task is to draw a picture thinking about the title:
We have the POWER to...
You might want to split your drawing into two and show things that are wonderful and beautiful about Earth on one side and all the ways humans destroy it on the other. Or you might have a creative way of showing this in another way. It's up to you!!
