KS1 Literacy - 'Might Be Useful'
'Might Be Useful' was written for The Recycling Consortium by Sarah Grace, with beautiful illustrations by Andy Council. Stan works at the dump, and sees people throwing away objects which he thinks "might be useful." He decides to use them to make a variety of wonderful objects, including musical instruments.
As well as two weeks of Literacy work for KS1 pupils, the pack includes Music activities which are easily implemented by non-specialists. |
