DAY 1: ENGLISH

This week we are going to be writing postcards. Do you know what a postcard is?

A postcard is a small card that we can send in the post without an envelope! It has a picture on the front and a message is written on the back. You can buy post cards from book stores, museum gift shops, tourist offices and newsagents. Most people send a postcard when they have visited a new place on a day trip or a holiday. Talk to a grown up about any postcards that you have sent or received, or about a place you have visited that you could have sent a postcard from.

Watch this video now with a grown up, which explains all the different parts of a postcard >

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LzafbwSN1tU

Your challenge: Can we identify the features of a postcard?

1. Look at my postcard features on the next slide. Using the word bank, name the different parts correctly. You can have a grown up draw out the chart for you.

2. Show the correct layout of a postcard. Next to each feature write A, B, C, D or E to show where it goes on a postcard.

3. Explain some postcard features by writing a simple fact, e.g. The address tells the postman where to take the postcard.
