Good Morning, happy Wednesday!
Here are your home learning tasks for today:
English – Task 7 – To plan a story
What happened in the story ‘The Runaway Iceberg’? What adventure did they go on? We are going to write our own story about Gaspar and Rossi but they are going to go on a different adventure.
Our task is to plan where they are going to go and what is going to happen.
Using your plan, try to describe your character, setting, problem and ending in as much detail as possible as this will help you write your story.
Can you use any similes or commas when listing adjectives?
Remember a simile is when you use ‘as’ or ‘like’ to compare something (e.g. The penguin is as cute as a rabbit, it was freezing like ice).
Phonics and reading
Today we would like you to look at the sound ‘igh’.
