Good morning everyone,
Please see today’s activity choices below:

How many did you manage to get?
Option 2 (daily activity) – First Level

Summary
Each day this week, you are going to choose a different news item to research: https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround.
Read the article and then write a summary (the key points) of what it is about. Remember to include the following:
Include no more than five bullet points. Ask yourself: will people be interested or is my message too long to read? Remember to stick to the key points.
After your writing, discuss the key points with a family member. Ask what their opinion (what they think) is and explain your own viewpoint. Try to give at least one reason for your opinion.
Option 4 (browse the web)

You are going to create your own diary. First, research some famous dairies, e.g. The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank – google an excerpt to look at the format (how it is laid out).
Now, it’s your turn!
Create your own personal diary and design the front cover which should reflect your personality.
Every day make a diary entry that explains the events and experiences of your day.
The key features of a diary are explained below:
Try to think about your choice of words to make your writing more interesting by using adverbs and adjectives.
An adverb – a word that describes a verb (an action or doing word). E.g. I ate (verb) my breakfast slowly (adverb).
An adjective – a word that describes a noun (the name of a thing or place). E.g. I played a fun (adjective) game (noun).
