Friday

Hi Girls, HAPPY FRIDAY! I hope that you got on well with yesterday’s work- if not, there is no need to worry. We can only try our best. Did you give yesterday’s meditation video a try? If you did, I hope you enjoyed it. Meditation is a great way to relax and it’s really good for us. You can try it any day you like. Here is the link again in case you want to try it before starting today’s work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBnPlqQFPKs&t=31s

I hope that you all have a good day!

Friday- Literacy • Well done on completing your sentences

this week! • As we have no sentences on a Friday,

here is your task for today… • Can you draw a line under all the

adjectives in your sentences? • Remember, adjectives are describing

words like big, enormous, soft, charming etc.

• If you have no adjectives, write some into your sentences to make them better.

Friday- Literacy

C. Ormsby (Presentation Primary School)

• Today we are going to continue looking at writing a recount.

• Have a read of this again to remind yourself... • When we write a recount, we write about something

that has happened in the past. • Can you think of some more examples of recounts? (a

birthday party, holidays, a trip to the park etc.)

There are different parts to a recount- 1. Title 2. Orientation (setting)- who, what, where, when, why 3. Sequence of Events- what happened in order 4. Personal comment- What do you think about what

happened Have a look at this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2EQlclHN1s&t=18s

Friday- Literacy

C. Ormsby (Presentation Primary School)

So far, we have learned that recounts have these things: 1. Recounts are about something that has happened in

the past. 2. Recounts have a title, setting, events and personal

comment. 3. Recounts have ‘time’ words e.g. first, after that,

then etc. 4. Recounts have verbs (doing words) in the past tense

ie. “I walked” rather than “I walk”.

Planning A Recount

C. Ormsby (Presentation Primary School)

Today, we will just fill out our plan. Next week, we can put the plan into sentences. You can just write short sentences or even just words below.
