Writing ideas:
In the story, Jake explores his garden and finds some imaginary worlds. Can you describe what you can see in your garden or when you go out for a walk.? You could write a list of things that you can see.
Examples: I can see a shiny pebble. I saw a pink flower.
You could write a description of the pirate ship or fairy garden that Jake found.
Maths ideas:
While out for a walk or in your garden try some of the maths challenges suggested in the link below. Choose one or two challenges that you will be able to complete.
Topic ideas:
- Make a picture using natural materials that you find outside. Can you look carefully at the objects you have used?

- In the story Jake loses his teddy. Can you play a prepositions game using a teddy? Example; put teddy behind the box. Put teddy in the shoe. Put teddy between the pillows. Use the picture cards. Can you say where teddy is using positional language like: on, under, between, inside, outside, next to? You could hide teddy in the garden and give each other clues to find him.
