English
This week we are continuing our work on 'There's a Rangtan in my Bedroom'. Watch the video here.
We are going to be practising our SPaG skills in class this week to pick up on some mistakes that we have been making in class.
Lesson 1: You will be looking at determiners and making the correct choice of an or a. You will then be up-levelling some sentences incorporating these.
Lesson 2: You will be looking at contractions, and how transform formal phrases into informal contractions using an apostrophe. Again, you will then up-level some sentences to contain these.
Lesson 3: This session will involve you learning to replace repeated nouns with pronouns to make your writing less repetitive.
Lesson 4: In this session you will need to apply some of the skills you have learned and some existing knowledge. You will need to check for any errors in my work and re-write it to make it better. MISS A LINE IN-BETWEEN EACH LINE so that you can go back and edit/improve your work at the end.
