Every day David Walliams will read aloud an extract from his book and we will set tasks for each year group to complete.

Click here to listen to the story

Your task:

  • YR – Can you draw a picture of Trish the Troll? 

  • Y1 – Listen to the story and write down some of the alliterative phrases – eg. Trish the Troll

  • Y2 – Draw Trish the Troll’s home and label it with expanded noun phrases to describe it. 

  • Y3 – Write a descriptive paragraph of Trish the Troll, think about what she looks like as well as what type of character she is (kind/unkind). 

  • Y4 – Choose a small section of the story and see if you can write it as a playscript. Can you include stage directions and a scene description? 

  • Y5 – Recreate a conversation in the story, perhaps between Trish and Megan. Can you include all of the correct speech punctuation? 

  • Y6 – Can you compare Trish the Troll to another character from a story that you are familiar with? What are the similarities and differences? 

If you need an extra challenge:

  • Draw a picture of your own troll, write a character description. Will your troll be mean or kind?

Don’t forget to send your work to stanmoresupport@stanmoreprimary.com and your work will be forwarded to your teacher!

Look out tomorrow after lunch for your next set of challenges.
