Good morning everyone.

It’s Friday so that means self-assessment time.

Let’s use the traffic lights to help us assess our work today.

What colour will your work for the week be.  Remember if you give any of your work red try to come up with a goal you could set yourself to help you work on the skill.

Literacy

To assess your spelling get someone at home to call out the words from the weekly grid and you write them down.  How many can you spell correctly?

How did you get on with the reading skill of using inference.

For the bench picture I thought the bench was old was because it looked like there was some old faded paint that you could still see a little bit. I’m not sure I think it looks comfortable to sit on because the slats on the seat part are all at different heights so this might dig into you when you sit on it.  I think this bench is in a park because of the green grass that was all around it.  I used my imagination for who I think might sit on this bench and I decided it might be a giant because the seat has a dent in it from where the huge giant was sitting.

For your free writing use this writing skills success criteria to assess how you got on.

You could try making your own survey at home to find out which flavour of ice cream is the most popular in your household. You can even ask toys or teddies. Here is an example for how you could lay out your survey:

Be careful of the spelling of flavour, this example was made in America!
