LI: To understand the structure and language features in an explanation
How did Goldilocks upset the Bear family?
To upset someone is to make someone unhappy, worried or disappointed
In the story Goldilocks and the 3 Bears, Goldilocks makes some bad decisions, these decisions made the Bear family upset. Have you ever upset someone
Goldilocks did not set a good example. She could smell the porridge so she had the courage to walk in the Bears house without permission. Without thinking about her actions Goldilocks continued walking around their house. What would you do if someone broke into your house?
When the bears got home, they were shocked to find their porridge eaten and the baby chair which was broken, as they found Goldilocks sleeping on the baby’s bed.
The bears were horrified to find that someone was trespassing and stealing from their house. Goldilocks needs to think of her actions before doing things that will upset people. If someone broke into my house I would also be upset and angry.
To help us understand how to write an explanation we looked at the purpose, the structure (what it looks like) and the language features. An expalantaion tells us how or why something is the way it is. To help us understand this we learnt about cause and effect. Cause and effect is an action and a reaction. We used the story of Goldilocks and the 3 Bears to help us understand this. Here is my/our explanation that describes how Goldilocks upset the Bear family.
This activity was fun because I got to learn some new words and learn how to make an explanation.
