Homework Week Three
Let’s celebrate authors for homework.
Writers need to be observant. We need to recall details about a scene or a place.
Go into your bedroom. In three minutes write down all of the objects in your bedroom.
The third object in your list is the one I would like you to describe in writing in such a way that another person can work out what it is without your naming it or its actual use.
Do the same with your kitchen and lounge.
Collect an example of an author’s descriptive writing detailing a setting eg. A house, a street, a mountain, a sunset.
Remember to record what you are reading and get your parent to sign it.
Times table focus is 7x.
Our word study this fortnight is to find the dictionary definitions or alternative words using a thesaurus for the following words: celebration, talent, magnificent, average, observational, mandatory, optional.
An optional extra activity is to put these words cunningly into a sentence.
If you have time let me know some of the exciting things that you get up to when you aren’t at school. I enjoy learning about your interests; it helps me to get to know you better.
Have fun. I’m looking forward to seeing how creatively you set your homework out.
