English This week we are completing our text linked to our Topic for this term, Explorers and Exploring, The Pirates Next Door by Jonny Duddle. If you are at home there is no need to buy the book, instead follow the link to watch the author reading the story, hopefully you should have time to listen to the whole story. Wednesday 20th January, 2021 LI: To retrieve information In preparation for our history topic lesson this afternoon I would like you to discuss everything that you already know about pirates, real or not. Use the resource below (or your own layout if you prefer) to share all of your information about pirates, please send it to me and also bring your own work to our live session this afternoon if you can. |

LI: To summarise events.
Today you are going to summarise your story and make it into a comic strip. Discuss what summarising means (retelling something including only the main, important events). When we summarise something for someone else, we pick out the important events which help them to understand and we leave out the unimportant ones.
Year 1 and Year 2- Using your story and the plan that you wrote for each part of your story last week write sentences (only one or two at the most for each part) to summarise your story and then draw a picture to explain the main event that is happening in each part.
Year 2 (Year 1 – extension) - underline any informal vocabulary you may have used.
Challenge for Year 1 and 2: Make sure that you have included all of your characters in your comic strip.

LI: To edit, improve and review writing.
Today you need to go through all of your story and check/correct any errors in punctuation or where it does not make sense (you may have noticed this when you read out your story in the last lesson).
Use the resource to check your own work against it and then complete the bottom part of the table.
Year 1 - make simple edits such as capital letters and adding adjectives, then complete the resource for your finished story.
Extension - make edits to adjectives, adverbs and check that emotion has been used.
Year 2 - make edits to adjectives, adverbs and check that emotion has been used, then complete the resource for your finished story.
Extension – extend a sentence with a conjunction and describe the setting using more detail.
Challenge for Year 1 and 2: You could add another expanded noun phrase, adverb and change any nouns/adjectives which are repetitive.
