Throughout the book, a very funny clown called Smarty Pants tells us what he can do....he can ski, swim, jump, play music and at the end, he shows us he can swing....right into a tree!
We found out that all these doing words are called verbs! We learnt a rhyme that goes like this:
'A verb is a word it's an action word, if you can do it, then you do it, if you do it, it's a verb,'
We created ourselves into smarty pants and wrote about some things we are good at!
Here are some of the Smarty Pants in our class! Don't you just love their faces!
During our literacy session, we participated in a language activity by making and decorating smarty pants biscuits, with real smarties! Some people went a bit crazy with the green icing, but they looked and tasted delicious!
Finally, we acted out some of the things that Smarty Pants could do...Saffi even got to wear some funny pants when she was acting out!
We had great fun in our shared reading sessions learning and reading about Smarty Pants!
