    Group or guided reading


    Introducing the book
    (Prediction) Read the title and ask: Why do you think Dad is getting presents?
    (Clarifying) Ask: Where do you think Dad is? What has happened to him? Have you been in hospital?
    What happened?
    Find the word list on the back cover. Read the words together.
    (Prediction) Ask: What do you think this story is about?

    Strategy check
    Check that the children know where the story begins and ends. Ask them to find page numbers to
    check that they are right.

    Independent reading
    • Ask children to read the story aloud. Praise and encourage them while they read, and prompt
    as necessary.
    • Help the children to use sounds and the sense of the sentence to work out new words.
    (Summarising) Ask: What happened to the grapes?
    Check that children:
    • hear and say sounds in words in the order in which they occur
    • read some high frequency words
    • know that print carries meaning and, in English, is read from left to right and top to bottom.
    Returning to the text
    (Questioning) Ask the children if they can remember what each child gave to Dad. Ask: What did
    Mum give him?
    Ask the children to find ‘Dad’ each time it occurs in the story. Ask: Why does ‘Dad’ have a capital
    letter at the beginning?
    (Clarifying) Ask: Who was looking after Dad? How can you tell?

    Group and independent reading activities
    Show an understanding of the elements of stories, such as sequence of events.
    (Questioning, Clarifying, Imagining) Ask: Why did the family bring presents for Dad? What did they
    bring? Talk about why we sometimes go to hospital and what happens there. Encourage children to talk
    about times when they were ill, and whether they went to hospital. Ask: If you were in hospital, what
    would you like your family to bring for you?
    Do the children understand why Dad had presents, and what the presents were?
    Explore and experiment with sounds, words and texts.
    Ask the children to find words in the story that have only two letters (‘is’, ‘it’, ‘of’). Ask them to tell you
    the letters to write as you write the words on the board. Rub out the ‘s’ of ‘is’ and write an ‘n’. Ask the
    children to use phonics to read the new word. Erase the ‘i’ of ‘it’ and replace it with ‘a’. Read the new
    word together. Erase the ‘f’ in ‘of’ and ask the children if they can think of a letter that would make
    a new word. Replace ‘f’ with ‘n’ (or ‘h’, or ‘r’, if suggested). Read the new word. Make a collection of
    words that have two letters.
    Did the children understand that changing a letter in the word changes the word? Could they read the
    new words?
    Show an understanding of the elements of stories such as main characters.
    (Questioning, Clarifying) Ask the children to find the bunch of grapes on page 1. Ask: Who has brought
    grapes for Dad? Ask, Do you like grapes? What might you do if you were Kipper? Find Kipper on page 3.
    Ask: What is Kipper doing? What do you notice about Kipper on page 5? On page 7, look at Mum and
    Chip. Ask: What do you think they were thinking? Turn to page 8. Ask: What is Kipper doing now? Do
    you think Kipper should be doing this? Do you think Dad minded? Would you have minded?
    Could the children comment about Kipper’s behaviour and add their own reactions?

    Speaking, listening and drama activities


    Use language to imagine and recreate roles and experiences.
    (Summarising, Imagining) Talk about the main events in the story. Ask: What do you think was the
    matter with Dad? Ask a volunteer to be Dad in hospital. Ask: What did the family bring for Dad? Ask
    volunteers to be members of the family. Ask the children to act out the scene at the bedside: What did
    Kipper do? What did Biff do? What did Mum do? Ask the remaining children to think of questions to ask
    Dad. Encourage Dad to think of suitable replies.

    Writing activities
    Attempt writing for various purposes, using features of different forms such as lists.
    (Summarising) Ask the children to tell you about the presents the family gave to Dad. Show the children
    how to write the items in a list. Ask the children to draw pictures of the items in the list, and use the
    book to write the words. Ask them to add an item that they would have taken to the hospital. Ask them
    to attempt to write the word.
    Could the children create a pictorial list and attempt to write the words?
