English
Over the next couple of weeks, we will be using a popular children’s book from the 20th century to inspire our writing. We will be particularly focusing on using our FANTASTICs (don’t worry all will become clear but hopefully your children already know what is meant by this) and exciting vocabulary to create a gripping story opener. In today’s lesson, we are asking the children to draw and label a visualisation of the first scene using evidence from the text. Please watch the ppt below to find out more.
PLEASE DO NOT WATCH THE CLIP BELOW UNTIL YOU HAVE COMPLETED YOUR VISUALISATION TASK :).

Handwriting
Practise your spellings from last week on this sheet below. Please do not feel you need to print it – look at it on screen and copy on some lined paper at home. Look carefully at how the letters are joined (some join from the top!)and where they are positioned on the lines! make sure your tall letters (ascenders) are tall and that you letters that go under the line (descenders) go through and under the line!
Science
