Ask the children: What are Nadim and Anneena running away from?  \n (Prediction) Read the title. Ask: Do you think the story is set in the present or the past?  \n (Clarifying) Look through the book at the pictures and talk about the settings (the plane, Biff’s room, the open country) . Ask: Has anyone ever been on an aeroplane? Was it fun?  \nStrategy check  \nCheck that the children understand the concepts of past and present.  \nIndependent reading  \n Ask the children to read the story. Encourage them to respond to words like ‘shouted’, ‘gasped’,‘yelled’, and to read with expression, praising them for their efforts.  \n (Questioning) Ask the children if anyone can remember where Nadim had been on holiday.  \n (Summarising) Ask: What happened to the flying machine when Henry and Harold tried to fly it?  \n Check that the children can discriminate syllables in their reading (e.g. home, air–port, hol–i–day, A–mer–i–ca) .  \nReturning to the text  \n (Questioning, Clarifying) Ask the children: Why do you think Harold and Henry laughed when Nadim mentioned an aeroplane?  \n Ask the children: What did Harold think Nadim said when he said, ‘We’ve not seen an aeroplane like this before’? (‘A hairy plane’, page 13) . Talk about ways in which writers can use language to make a story funny, [e.g. by](e.g. by) using assonance or alliteration, riddles, puns, or tonguetwisters.  \n (Summarising) Ask: What did the children suggest to make the aeroplane take off?  \n (Questioning) Ask the children: How many things can you remember that the plane crashed into?  \n (Imagining) Ask the children: How do you think Harold and Henry felt when their plane crashed?  \n (Imagining) Ask: What would you like to invent?  \n1 © Oxford University Press 2014  \nGroup and independent reading activities  \n Explore how particular words are used, including words and expressions with similar meanings.  \n In pairs, ask the children to brainstorm sound words for the runaway plane. They need not be real words. Write their contributions on the board.  \n•Ask the children to use the words, and others they think of, to make up nonsense phrases or sentences about the flying machine. Put them together to make a poem, e.g.  \nBump, bump, trumpety trump,  \nFlip, flap, flop.  \nVroom, shroom, garoomity goom  \nCrish, crash, snap!  \n•Let the children read out the poem together, stressing the sounds.  \n Do the children recognise that words with the same letters usually sound alike, e.g. ‘fl’ in ‘flip, flap, flop’ or ‘oo’ in ‘vroom, shroom’?  \n Spell with increasing accuracy and confidence, drawing on word recognition and knowledge of word structure, and spelling patterns.  \n•You will need a tray with the following items on it: a bookmark, facecloth, hairbrush, handbag, lipstick, matchbox, postcard, teaspoon.  \n Talk about compound words, putting some examples on the board, e.g. ‘airport’, ‘toothpick’, ‘postman’.  \n•Tell the children that your friend, like Nadim, has just come back from holiday, and has brought you some gifts. You know that all the gifts are one word made up of two but you need their help to spell them to write a thank-you letter.  \n Hold each ‘gift’ up, saying what it is as you do so. Ask them to write down the word for each ","cbCaivgjCeCn9I8g","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivgjCeCn9I8g","pdf",583955,"English","# Introducing the book\n# Group or guided reading\n# Strategy check\n# Independent reading\n# Returning to the text\n# Group and independent reading activities\n## Sound words, nonsense phrases, and poems\n## Spell with increasing accuracy and confidence\n## Compound words and vowel phonemes\n## Humour and unfamiliar words\n# Speaking, listening and drama activities\n# Writing activities","[{\"question\":\"Which comprehension strategies are taught in the Teaching Notes for The Flying Machine?\",\"answer\":\"The notes teach prediction, questioning, clarifying, summarising, and imagining, woven throughout group and independent reading activities.\"},{\"question\":\"How do the notes help pupils with tricky or unfamiliar words?\",\"answer\":\"They provide a list of tricky words and suggest activities to decode words that are not completely decodable, including practising spelling with word recognition and word structure knowledge.\"},{\"question\":\"What wordplay and sound-focused activities are suggested?\",\"answer\":\"Pupils brainstorm sound words for the runaway plane, create nonsense phrases or sentences and a poem using stressed sounds, and explore letter/sound patterns such as matching letters sounding alike.\"}]","The Flying Machine - Teaching Notes - Group and Independent Reading | PDF"]
