In EYFS and KS1 I would use this to plan for an activity on food tasting. The children could role-play being Lima and trying all of the different foods. I would then ask the children to describe what the food looked like, how it tasted and its texture. Books, flash cards, posters and other products must be unmarked, unwritten on, unbent, and in new condition. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCo7fbLgY2oA_cFCIg9GdxtQ?fbclid=IwAR2EtV9dAsW0AiY8CIm-aHzPMnL8bJEPxflxhGxsLa715o9205yCPXHXJc8 Mrs Ramakrishnan &Mrs Jeevahan’s group please follow set 3

Activity 1 – Make a list of the different food items in the story and discuss adjectives, noun phrases used by author.

This ebook contains text and narration in both languages, making the stories ideal for those new to English, or wanting to learn a new language. There are follow-on activities including audio flash cards, matching pairs, label the parts, sequencing the story and a video questionnaire. An animated video of each story is provided in English. Limas Red Hot Chilli is a story that I have just covered this week in a Year 1 English class. The story is about a young girl, Lima, who is looking for something to eat, however her mother warns her not to eat the red hot chilli. Lima searches the kitchen for something to eat and finds a variety of food that are either to hard, to difficult to open, or just not right for her. In her search she spots the delicious looking red hot chilli and sneakily takes a bite. To her despair, the red hot chilli was TOO hot and her face turned redder and redder. In an attempt to cool down her mouth, her mum, dad, aunt and granddad suggest their ideas which will cool down her month, including: mango, jelly and ice cream. Numeracy: Tell the children that Lima wants to say thank you to them for writing such beautiful letters to her and helping her remember. But she does not know how many children there are and therefore how many things she will need for the picnic. Here, you could set up a pretend picnic where the children are using their imagination being in role play and also learning how to count objects and say how many are needed, etc etc. This week, we are looking at two aspects of the past and comparing it to modern life – household items as well as school life.
