Good morning P7, we hope you have been taking advantage of the nice weather while following the instructions for staying safe.
Today we have a piece of writing to complete. You have a map which will hopefully give you some ideas as you write a chapter of a book. Choose one of the titles and use that location as the inspiration for your story. There is a planning page to help you decide who and what will be in your story. Try to make it exciting, have a beginning, middle and end. Introduce the characters and location, have a problem occur and then find a solution to it. Remember VCOP – use ambitious Vocabulary, Connectives other than just and, vary your Openers and don’t forget punctuation! Adding in the 5 senses also help you to add deatil and helps you boost your word count. These mats will help you with different aspects of your story.

We continue with negative numbers, remember that having a number line beside you can be really helpful – if you can print one out that’s great but you can copy one into your jotter too. Remember if you are counting using the number line, you don’t count the number you start from.
Remember to post your work to your Personal Learning Blogs, we look forward to seeing your excellent work.
