Please don’t worry about KS2 SATs, tests that children living in England sit in May, we don’t have them in Scotland- phew!!

Activity:

Now using Chapter 21 from Danny Champion of the World, go on a nouns, verbs, adverb and adjective hunt. You may even draw these if you can. Use your book to find at least 5 for each word class write them down in your jotter. Then choose 1 of each word class and write an interesting sentence.

*Challenge* Now watch the rest of the video clip (from 3.33 mins) to learn about pronouns, determiners, prepositions and conjunctions.

Plenary:

Log onto Sumdog and complete the Nouns, Verbs, Adjective and Adverbs Challenge (it’s available until this Friday). There are 250 coins to collect. Good Luck! Deborah, I think I’ve managed to include your class into this challenge but will you check just incase?
