Students are working on a variety of tasks, some reading and some language.  We are using this time to revise language knowledge and techniques which will be helpful as we move forward.

Pupils should send their work to their teacher.

For those who have finised the rearch task we have been working on comparing two sources – well done !  Keep your booklets and materials safe and look after your presentation, we will get them assessed when we return.

If you haven’t finished, don’t panic !  Work steadily doing a little every day until you get the work finished.  Your teacher is there to help you so ask if you need guidance,

We are going to move onto some reading work.  I have posted a “reading Strategies” booklet on the websit and on Edmodo.   Pupils should choose a book they haven’t read before, remember there are free books available on Audible and also “Kindle” if you can’t find anything at home.  Students should try to choose something they are interested in.

The booklet will take students through the reading strategies we would use in class.

 

This week those studying ‘Sailmaker’ will be starting to think about character (this will probably take up at least the next two weeks). Pupils will be creating visualisers for each character in the play and will then start to read Act 1 whilst taking notes to add to the visualisers. 

This group  will be set a different task each day from BBC Bitesize. The link will be  posted  each morning. Tasks range from writer’s techniques, reading challenges and more. 

Pupils should send their work to Mrs Nelson ro Miss Murphy.
