Don’t forget to join in with PE with Joe at 9am.

PM Writing Task – The Big Tree

Today we are learning more about words and sentences.  Have a look at the story above.  The text in blue is extra information to make the story more detailed and interesting to read.

Asking the children to read/listen to the sentences then:

  • Talk about the blue text and what additional information it adds to the story.
  • Identify the sentences that tell us who is in the story, where the story is set and when it takes place.
  • Identify the sentences that describe what happened first, then and after that.
  • Talk about how the writer felt about the big tree.

Next, look inside your pack for “The Big Tree – Activity 4”.

recount_big_tree_activity 4

The purpose of this activity is to complete sentences by writing the past tense verbs played, looked and liked.  When you are finished make sure you read each sentence back to yourself to ensure it makes sense.  In the box at the bottom, please draw a detailed picture that illustrates the story.  Remember to add lots of detail.

After all your hard work why not cuddle up on the couch to listen to today’s chapter of ‘Fing’ read by David Walliams?
