Hi everyone, hope you are all ok. Well I can’t believe it is Friday already!! Here is your learning for today.
I have enjoyed looking at all your learning this week. Please keep sending it to me!
I hope you have a good weekend and I will see you next week.
Literacy
I hope you have enjoyed this week’s story Meerkat Mail. Now that you know the story really well, I would like you to retell the story in your own words. You could always draw an “S plan” first to help you remember the key events.
Remember to use:
Capital letter to start a sentence
Full stop at the end of a sentence
Conjunctions to write longer sentences Y1 – use and, but
Y2 you could also use because, when, or, if
Adjectives to add detail to your story
CHALLENGE: Can you include a question? Can you use an exclamation mark in your story?
Here is the link to the story again if you need it.
