Big Talk Homework
Monday 8th October

On Friday the children will be writing a riddle poem entitled ‘What am I?’ The poem will be based on an endangered animal.

During the week I would like you to talk about one endangered animal, last weeks talk homework will help greatly with this. In your talk I would like you to include wow words to describe:

• the animals appearance
• it’s super sense
• any amazing thing it can do
• it’s habitat

Share this riddle to see if you can work out what the animal is!

What am I?

I am the largest wrinkly land animal
I use my enormous ears to sense sounds lower than a human
I live in the vast African Savannah
I can use my trunk as a snorkel!

I am...

Both Mrs Kinsey and myself were amazed at how much the children were able to talk about endangered animals last week. They couldn’t wait to share what they had found out.

Keep up the good talk!

Don’t forget to use your treasury if you need to.
