Starter activity

Let's begin by playing a spelling game!  We are trying to make words which begin and end with the given letters.  Follow the instructions below, choose your chilli challenge level and do your best!  Don't forget, if you're not sure how to spell a word, please look it up in a dictionary.

Main activity

Have you been watching the BBC series "A Perfect Planet"?  Narrated by Sir David Attenborough, it features amazing animals and plants which have adapted to suit their habitats.  You may remember that we looked at clips about marine iguanas and gecko lizards two weeks ago.

For today's comprehension activity, we are going to watch a short clip about the Arctic Wolf and then answer a series of questions based on this clip before completing a research task.  Watch today's video where Mrs Bell explains what to do.

To begin this activity, watch the video below to learn more about the Arctic Wolf and his hunt for food.  You may find it useful to click on the CC button to bring up the subtitles for this clip.

Once you've answered the questions, it is time for your research task.  Watch the clip below to learn about a different Arctic mammal – a baby polar bear.  Write down five key facts which you learn about this young cub.

Time for some fun!

Why don't you finish today's Literacy tasks with some art?  In this tutorial, you will learn how to draw an Arctic Wolf!
