Learning Project - to be done throughout the week: View point
The project this week aims to provide opportunities for your child to learn more about
different viewpoints. Learning may focus on physical viewpoints in terms of what you can
see outside of the window at home, what others can see looking into your home and then
progress onto personal viewpoints and of others.
Using your senses: Ask your child to pick a window in the house. Ask them to stand there for a
few minutes and take a look at what they can see and write or draw them down. Now ask them to
try this activity again but this time ask them what they can hear? Write or draw these down. Ask
your child to help find a piece of material in the house and then blindfold them. What can they see?
Which sense do they use now? Ask them to now cover their ears and look outside the window.
What do they hear?
A ‘feely bag’ - find six objects, such as a hairbrush, a tube of toothpaste, a

packet of biscuits, an ice cream scoop, a packet of tissues and a wooden
spoon. You will also need something to act as a blindfold. Imagine what it
would be like if you could never see because you were blind and you had to
learn to rely on your other senses instead. Play with a partner and see who
guesses most of the objects.
Find a mirror in the house: What can they see? Imagine if they were able to walk into the mirror.
What do they think you would see? Listen to the story ‘Through the Magic Mirror’ by Anthony
Browne. Look at the illustrations in the book and discuss what is different. Can they create a story
similar to ‘Through the Mirror’? Draw a story map first and plan their story. Using their story map,
create their story and remember to think about your illustrations.
Find a place in the house. Look around what they can see. Sketch what they can see. What is on
the left hand side of them? What is the right hand side of them? Does it change if they sit in another
part of the house? Make a list of all the things and compare.
Read the stories: Goldilocks and the Three Bears, Jack and the Beanstalk and Cinderella. The
characters will be going to see Judge Jenny. Can they persuade Judge Jenny to see the story from
their point of view. Watch these links to help Judge Jenny to decide. Now it’s their turn… read the
stories Little Red Riding Hood, Three Little Pigs and Gingerbread Man. Imagine they are going to
be one of the characters from the story and an adult is going to be Judge Jenny. What would they
say to Judge Jenny? How could they persuade her?
School Uniform: Tell your child that they will be presenting to the School
Council about the school uniform. Do they think it is a good idea to wear a
uniform or are they against wearing a uniform? Can they write down why they
think they should have a uniform and then write down why they shouldn't?
Design a new uniform. What would they wear? Would it be the same for girls
and boys? What would they say to the school council? How would they
campaign? Would they have badges, posters, events and banners to help
their debate.
Could you design a new school logo? Ask your child to think about their current logo now. What
does it represent ? What could they add or change? Is there something that represents their school
or area recently that people would recognise? Look at the shape of the logo. Would they keep it the
same or change it?
