The Day The Crayons Quit book activities:
Re-read the book with Mrs Cox but STOP at the yellow and orange crayon!!! Link: https://youtu.be/swDD5srkRiw.
Reading Orange and Yellow Crayon are having a debate, to argue their case for why they should be the colour of the sun. Think about Yellow Crayon – imagine you are him. List all the reasons you can think of, to support why you (Yellow Crayon) should be the colour Duncan uses for the sun. See below Activity 2: yellow crayon argument. Now think about Orange Crayon – imagine you are him. List all the reasons you can think of to support why you (Orange Crayon) should be the colour Duncan uses for the sun. See below Activity 3: orange crayon argument.
Persuasive writing – linked with reading – ‘The Day The Crayons Quit’. This week you will write a speech to try to persuade (convince) Year R children that you are the true colour of the sun! So when they do any colouring they will choose you and no one else to colour the sun! 1. Choose either yellow or orange crayon. Imagine you are them. Think about how you’re feeling. Look at the list you have made from the reading task and re-read the chosen coloured crayons previous letter again to remind you of ideas for your side of the argument. You can also add anymore that you might think of. TASK: Take a look at the
PowerPoint that has been uploaded as a PDF on the website, go through it with an adult, it might help to think about how to write your speech and what to include.
Writing 2. TASK: With a speech your ideas need to be organised so use the plan (see below Activity 4: Plan) to work out what ideas you are going to talk about and what order you are going to say them in. You also need an introduction to tell the audience who you are and why you are speaking to them and a conclusion to finish the speech and give a final closing sentence to convince the audience. Organise your ideas into the boxes remember a plan only needs key words. 3. Your audience is Year R children, aged 4/5. Your job is to convince them you are the true colour of the sun!! So you have to use bossy words phrases like ‘ you must ‘ and ‘It is clear that … ‘. Be polite but make sure your reasons are strong. TASK: Use your plan to write a draft of your speech. See below Activity 5: writing help for word mats/ useful phrases and a tick list for year 2 writing! . 4. You will need to practise your speech aloud, maybe even using your family as the audience. This is the time where you can edit anything or change things if you think you can improve it. Remember you can improve spelling and punctuation, but also your choice of words or even the way you have written sentences. Once you’re happy with your speech, write it up as a final piece.
5. You could then record yourselves reading your speech and send it into school so we can listen to your arguments!! We have provided a range of different phased activities for phonics; choose the phase you feel is appropriate for your child and remember, revisiting will not do any harm either!

Activity 16: A Million Dreams Lyrics
I close my eyes and I can see The world that's waiting up for me That I call my own Through the dark, through the door Through where no one's been before But it feels like home They can say, they can say it all sounds crazy They can say, they can say I've lost my mind I don't care, I don't care, so call me crazy We can live in a world that we design 'Cause every night I lie in bed The brightest colors fill my head A million dreams are keeping me awake I think of what the world could be A vision of the one I see A million dreams is all it's gonna take A million dreams for the world we're gonna make There's a house we can build Every room inside is filled With things from far away The special things I compile Each one there to make you smile On a rainy day They can say, they can say it all sounds crazy They can say, they can say we've lost our minds I don't care, I don't care if they call us crazy Runaway to a world that we design Every night I lie in bed The brightest colors fill my head A million dreams are keeping me awake I think of what the world could be A vision of the one I see A million dreams is all it's gonna take A million dreams for the world we're gonna make However big, however small Let me be part of it all Share your dreams with me You may be right, you may be wrong But say that you'll bring me along To the world you see To the world I close my eyes to see I close my eyes to see Every night I lie in bed The brightest colors fill my head A million dreams are keeping me awake A million dreams, a million dreams I think of what the world could be A vision of the one I see A million dreams is all it's gonna take A million dreams for the world we're gonna make For the world we're gonna make
