'Unusual Day'

By Sandi Toksvig

This is a enjoyable little book which has a simple plot with an interesting twist at the end. Blue Class are having an 'Unusual Day' where they all bring in unusual things. Their teacher doesn't think Jessica should've brought her granny. Jessica disagrees... her granny is very unusual.

All these activities were done as follow-up homeworks after reading the book in class.

Make a list of the things that you could bring in if our class had a 'Blue Day'.

What animals could you bring in for a 'Pet Day'?

Try and think of some interesting things that you could bring in for an 'Unusual Day'.

Jessica's Granny

Jessica wanted to bring her granny in on 'Unusual Day'. Pretend that you are Jessica. Write down the reasons that you think you should be allowed to bring your granny in for 'Unusual Day'. Why is she an unusual granny? Why is she not like normal grannies?

The Fire

For homework, design a poster to tell people what to do if they discover a fire in a building. Your poster could tell people how to prevent fires or what precautions to take.

The Rescue of Bunsie

Who? What? Why? Where? When?

Pretend that you are a newspaper reporter who is reporting on Bunsie's rescue from the fire. Write a newspaper article on how Bunsie was rescued.
