People and Place
This worksheet set focuses on the people and community depicted in Go Home, Cheeky Animals!. Students will examine how characters are represented visually and through actions, and how the book reflects a specific cultural setting. The tasks encourage students to consider how literature can show relationships between people and the places they live.

Learning goals
- We are learning to use comprehension strategies, such as visualising, predicting, connecting, summarising and questioning to make meaning.
- We are learning to write known lower case and upper case letters using learned letter formations, functional posture and pencil grip.
- We are learning to use comprehension strategies to find literal and inferred meaning in texts.
- We are learning to write words using unjoined lower case and upper case letters using functional pencil grip.
- We are learning to use comprehension strategies to find literal and inferred meaning in texts and begin to analyse texts by drawing on our knowledge.
- We are learning to use comprehension strategies, such as retelling, making inferences and finding key words to make meaning from multimodal texts.
- We are learning to write known lower case and upper case letters using learned letter formations, correct posture and pencil grip.
- We are learning to use comprehension strategies to find literal and inferred meaning in texts.
- We are learning to form all upper and lower-case letters correctly.
- We are learning to write upper and lower-case unjoined letters and sentences legibly using correct pencil grip and posture.
