Next week we are starting to plan our own fables. Please can the children choose two animals that are totally different like ‘the tortoise and the Hare’ or my example of ‘cheetah and the elephant’ and create a fact file on Purple Mash for them. Please do not choose the same animals as these- let’s be creative! I have set a 2Do for this, so just click on it and you will see the first page is modelled for you to copy the structure. Can this please be handed in ready for our lesson on Wednesday?
This week we have started to look at adverbs, focusing on how they can describe how we move. Please have a go at the ’ Adverbs quiz’ under your 2Do’s in Purple Mash. Watch this fun song that we will be looking in class first to help you … https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=enZr3N0bRgE&t=2s

Spellings of the week …

Don’t forget to keep practising your half termly spellings, there is only 4 weeks left!

This week our spelling focus has been that often when words start with w, wh and qu followed by an ‘a’ - the ‘a’ makes an ‘o’ sound. We have learnt the rhyme: “Spell ‘o’ with an ‘a’ after ‘w’ as in wash. Spell ‘o’ with an ‘a’ after ‘qu’ as in squash.

Our spellings this week are:

was
what
want
watch
wander
wallet
quality
quarrel
