This week we are continuing to read Paddington. Below you will see some questions to think about whilst you are reading the story. Read pages 17-20.
P17 What is the Browns address?
What do you think it means when Judy says “she’s a bit fierce at times?”
What does it mean when it says “his knees began to wobble?”
P19 How did Mrs Bird greet Paddington? (links with ‘exclaimed- new vocab from Monday) what else could she be saying or thinking?
P20- Why does Judy think Mrs Bird might like Paddington?
Activity – Think about what Mrs Bird might be saying to Paddington when she first sees him. Can you write a simple speech bubble for what Mrs Bird would say? Try to write a simple sentences (or sentences) of what they think she would say.
Read to the end of the book.

and then… the ending – where the problem is sorted out.
Activity
Use pictures from the story. Sequence 3 main events in the story to retell story orally using phrases like ‘At the beginning of the story…” “in the middle of the story…” “At the end of the story…
