Big Talk Homework
Monday 17th September

How to Look After Your Pet

This week the children will be thinking about and writing instructions for looking after their pet.
If you do not have a pet, then the children are welcome to talk about an animal they would like to have as pet. You may need to help them research this if it is an unfamiliar animal to you, or you may have experience of having a pet yourself when you were younger and the children could also draw from this in their talk.


Please talk about these important animal needs:
  • food and water
  • suitable home e.g. type, size, comfort, Where will it sleep?
  • be treated by a vet if they are sick or injured
  • be fit and healthy and have plenty of exercise
  • have a loving and caring home
  • time to play and cuddle with their owners
The children will be learning how to use numbers to organise instructions.

As always, if your child would like to record any information please encourage them to use their Treasury Books.

Thank you.
