Grammar Warm Up

 

Work with a partner to complete these sentences, by including an expanded noun phrase.

 

To identify and collect favourite words and phrases from a text.

Now we have finished reading the story, we are going to think about what language we can use in our own writing.

Every new person Plop met thought he was an object when he landed.

I thought you were a thunderbolt.

I thought you were a shooting star.

 

Can you think of an object to describe the way Plop plummets from the tree?

 

In the book, each chapter described dark using an adjective.

Dark is KIND

Dark is NECESSARY

 

Can you think of some words to describe dark?

Use the sentence opener:

Dark is  .... because....

 

 

 

Can you show the different rules and routines that people may have? 

This half term we are focusing on Islam.

 

A routine is something we repeat regularly because it is important. We can have daily, weekly or annual (yearly) routines.

Talk with your partner about what routines you have and why you do them. Below is an example of bedtime routines.

 

Other examples could include:

• saying good morning to your parents so show that you love them
• brushing your teeth so that they are clean
• changing your library book to read interesting stories or facts
• opening cards on your birthday to see who they are from

 

 

How is your weekend routine different from your weekday routine?

Why is it important to make time for these special routines? What would happen if you didn't?

 

Everyday we come into class, we are greeted by our teachers and we change our reading books before taking the register.

 

This helps us to know that we are cared for; that people are happy to see us; we are safe and that our home learning is really important.

 

Can you think of another example of a routine you take part in as a community? It might be with your family or at mosque.

How can routines show that we have respect for things that really matter?

 

Activity: 

Now go on to Seesaw and draw a picture of a routine you have . Then write a sentence about the routine.
