This is a phonics resource that covers Phase 3, Phase 4, Phase 5 and Phase 6. We have also included two blank copies so you can choose which best suits your class. Use art software to colour a picture of a robot. Can you use different shades of one colour like the illustrations in the book? (see Resources below)

We have also include a resource that allows your Year 1 / Year 2 class to cut out the questions and answers and match them together. Your Ks1 class will use the words or pictures from the mat to complete the sentences linked to the story. After discussions exploring the words, your class will complete the activity by adding the word into context of the story. Next they will look at the meanings of the words by finding a synonym. We have created seven different activity sheets for this resource so you can choose which best suits your KS1 class, depending on ability and time of the year.

It's a story of friendship and how everyone comes together to try and help Bernard find his bottom.

Disconsolate, Bernard feels like he’s not a robot, but a ‘No-Bot’. Then, at the beach, he spots some rabbits, sailing off in something… Despite his shouts, they disappear. But what is that oddly shaped sandcastle? Could it be his lost bottom?The description for the "Ghost Protocol" quest uses male pronouns for the droid and states that he wandered the streets of Mos Espa aimlessly, with no one knowing why he was there. It also says there are many rumors about the droid, with the only thing known for certain being that something was not right with Nobot. [2] Appearances [ ]

This story explains to children that friend's are there to help and to work as a team to solve problems. It explores different emotions as Bernard starts off happy on the swing, then later is crying when he struggles to find his bottom and finally to end with a happy ending of him finding his bottom. The book is beautifully illustrated and the story is guaranteed to have you and your child laughing… I can't recommend any of the Sue Hendra books highly enough, seriously if you've never read any of her books then you MUST! This activity encourages your class to expand on the quality of their writing by focusing on how adjectives tell us more within writing.
