Mmmm Yummy Homework

Homework Week Six

Times Table focus 7x (my favourite!) this week.

A book review is mandatory (MUST DO) this week. Include title, author, publisher, dedication and your opinion.

Descriptions

Katherine Mansfield's description of Wellington
'It's a small town, planted at the edge of a fine deep harbour like a lake. Behind it, on either side, there are hills. The houses are built of light painted wood. They have iron roofs coloured red. And there are big dark plumy trees massed together.'

Five short sentences. Nice and simple.
I would like you to describe your town in five sentences now. Notice how each of Katherine Mansfield?s sentences gives us a new piece of information. Her descriptions are very visual. We can ?see? what she is describing. That is the sort of thing I would like you to do.

Word Study
Put each of the school vision words into separate sentences. Can you remember them all?
